My thought is that the Sanders candidacy is ultimately good for Clinton because it shows Democrats can run against each other and still be friendly and peaceful. If the Clinton room fills up with snarky comments about Sanders, I'm sure Sanders supporters will try to respond. And it works the other way around of course, so what do we have? Two rooms full of people spending their time trying to eliminate any sort of disharmony by blocking and banning.

I have an alternative suggestion for both rooms. Treat every comment as a serious inquiry, and respond dispassionately. If that doesn't work, and the poster continues to be a hammerhead snark, commence with the blocks and bans. Just an idea.
