There Is No "Bernie Bashing". There's Reasonable Annoyance At His Insults & Unhelpful Comments

96. Considering HRC won 3 million more votes than Red Don, despite Putin, vote rigging, and all...

Yeah, I'd call that pretty horrific too. Damn, that woman failed utterly to get the racist vote, the white nationalist vote, the vote of those who want a strongman (emphasis on man), and the low-information vote. Such a failure. Damn, and it's all on her, no question.

So tell me, all you prosecutors and juries out there: How do we swing the Democratic Party and our message in the coming elections so we can capture the racists, misogynists, white nationalists, and low-info voters? Is a strong leftward tilt going to get them? What, exactly? On edit: For gods' sake don't take this to mean I think the Party needs to swing rightward. I don't. But think about who The Mad King's base really is when you bemoan the fact that we lost them. We never had them.

Or are we going to stop blaming Hillary for our own party's members' failure (among other things) to show up at midterms -- the failure that allows statehouses to pick up representatives who then get to gerrymander the hell out of districts? Are we going to stop blaming her for problems that have been accumulating for 40 years, ever since Newt Gingrich started his Orwellian career, a far right wing billionaire-funded plan that is now bearing its most evil and poisonous fruit?

Oh sure, DefenseLawyer, defend that status quo.

Where were you when DU was hacked? I sure remember how cocky and condescending (your words) our members were. On Nov 7 one of our most respected members told how she woke up that morning thinking the election was over and Trump had won, at which point she vomited. She was not alone in that state of hyper-anxiety. Then the nightmare came true for all of us.

This country has systemic problems that are none of Hillary's fault. She's spent a lifetime trying to ameliorate them. And her reward has been to be hunted down like a dog by the VRWC until millions believed the lies.

Yet she still got 3 million more verifiable votes than Trojan Horse Don, the Mad King.

Yeah, sure we feel all condescending and cocky.

Actually, we just have had it up to our back teeth with the lies that will not die, and the blame that is going to sell a thousand books.
