TJDS - Hillary Camp Using Insults & Name-Calling To Win Over Bernie Supporters

[stuffmatters]

67. Yikes, "waiting for Monday"... Sore winners'd better stop alienating the 46% that voted for Bernie.

At some point it becomes very counterproductive to both Hillary's campaign and the Democratic Party to keep insulting
Bernie supporters. Seems a no brainer to me.

Hillary has national majority "unfavorable" among (all) voters. Simply relying on "fear of Trump" to deliver voters is probably not going to work. Hillary needs every Democratic vote and majority of Independents.

Keep in mind that Hillary would probably lose against Kasich or maybe even Paul Ryan, or any of the "silvertongued"
anti choice, voter suppressing, austerity sadists that the Repub establishment reveres.

The work is Hillary's, she needs to start taking definitive stances on economic and environmental issues (eg. be clearly against Citizens United, not just "undisclosed" money in politics, stand vociferously against the TPP etc and their antidemocratic corporate kangeroo courts of ISDS, say no to fracking.) These are not "Bernie demands/concessions " these are views held by a majority of American voters.

I thought Hillary's announcement this week that she would close the hedge fund loophole by executive action was a great step in the right direction to unifying the Democrats and the national voters. This is the energy and clarity that her campaign needs to embrace to 'grow" her support both party and nationwide.

Dore's tweets are funny but also very, very serious.
