Why Was Heath Mello Thrown Under the Bus? - The Nation

16. That's so nice that you fervently believe this, but I asked for evidence, not statements of faith.

Again, he's a pretty rabid right winger and we didn't torpedo anything. Bernie made a bad decision to draw attention to a candidate that was calculated to be disgusting to the Democrats who he's been attacking and dividing. You folks need to stop blaming us for the bad decisions made by Bernie and his failure to do his homework or his deliberate decisions to create havoc and piss people off.

It's despicable to create this crap over a mayoral race with a terrible candidate WHILE attacking a guy who's an actual progressive and actually pro-choice and actually stands a chance to win a HOUSE SEAT.

No. I did nothing. That was all Bernie, and he chose to diss a guy who agrees with me on probably 99% of issues and who would be a vote against Trump in CONGRESS, to promote a rabidly right wing dude who had no business getting the attention that he was gifted by the egos that make Bernie's poor decisions.

He literally attacked the guy who was a progressive in a HOUSE RACE, and if he loses that race thanks to the idiotic attacks, blaming me for Bernie and his supporters massive fuck up is something won't cut it, you can take credit for your own excellent work, or praise Bernie for whatever, since that's how that works out.

Blaming me personally and those of us expressing the obvious antipathy for this moronic move is just pathetic, this is all Bernie and his supporters and that desperate spin for a mayoral candidate in Nebraska.

Helluva job there. Projecting that complicit crap when the facts indict you folks who refuse to accept reality fails yet again.

You've twisted yourself into knots trying to defend this crap and now you're blaming us because the infallible one failed so spectacularly and pissed off so many women, for a crap candidate in a mayoral race in Nebraska.

Awesome job you did there, that emoji is an excellent depiction of what you're doing here, and it's only going to hurt you.
