they need a bigger rug juxtaposed Apr 2017 #1

Ah, but you didn't include all the fine print! Tom Rinaldo Apr 2017 #5

Totally irrelevant to the conversation which is about Sanders openly supporting an anti-choice KittyWampus Apr 2017 #37

Yep. cwydro Apr 2017 #39

Who cares? leftofcool Apr 2017 #2

Interesting Tom Rinaldo Apr 2017 #3

The corporate shills are scared stiff and doing all they can to discredit Sanders. kristopher Apr 2017 #8

"corporate shills" i.e. "people with a different opinion than mine" Dem2 Apr 2017 #31

Well, people with different values certainly. kristopher Apr 2017 #43

Thanks for posting! Great info! VigilantG Apr 2017 #4

But he is not a member of the party. safeinOhio Apr 2017 #6

That's a really important point ProfessorPlum Apr 2017 #7

The irony of that can be painful sometimes n/t Tom Rinaldo Apr 2017 #9

only half? quakerboy Apr 2017 #10

Heh. Irony alert. progressoid Apr 2017 #11

Yep, I would say (with irony) that there was lots of Democrat bashing in the OP except... Tom Rinaldo Apr 2017 #23

Good point. Thanks for reminding us that Sanders has a stellar record on reproductive rights. beam me up scottie Apr 2017 #12

What's your point? Gman Apr 2017 #13

I am worried about Party unity. What about you? Tom Rinaldo Apr 2017 #19

Nobody but one or two, maybe 3 in the country worry about it Gman Apr 2017 #20

Well there appear to be at least 5-6 right here on the forum. Kentonio Apr 2017 #24

How many members does DU have? Are 5 or 6 people a big majority of members? emulatorloo Apr 2017 #27

Nope Kentonio Apr 2017 #34

Thanks for the laugh! n/t emulatorloo Apr 2017 #36

those alleging a concern with party unity seem to be those working most strongly against it. LanternWaste Apr 2017 #40

I see that pattern too but I don't know if we are looking in the same place or not Tom Rinaldo Apr 2017 #41

Way too many Bernie threads popping up lately. Chicago1980 Apr 2017 #14

Read the link? Duppers Apr 2017 #21

There is an obvious attempt to purge Sanders supporters going on. nt Snotcicles Apr 2017 #22

Indeed. Duppers Apr 2017 #25

LOL NurseJackie Apr 2017 #26

Sanders supporters make up the majority of DU emulatorloo Apr 2017 #28

I know. It can't be good for Skinner's fund drives though. nt Snotcicles Apr 2017 #29

Are you suggesting Skinner wants to purge Sanders supporters? emulatorloo Apr 2017 #30

Not at all. But I think his bottom line suffers from it. nt Snotcicles Apr 2017 #32

Well I still don't thing Sanders supporters are gonna be purged because of a handful of threads emulatorloo Apr 2017 #33

Sanders' own record is irrelevant to the conversation. In fact, the OP is a non sequitur KittyWampus Apr 2017 #38

Could we retire this "outreach" canard that's been repeatedly refuted? Jim Lane Apr 2017 #42
