(62,325 posts)the base of the party. Thousands have left that site over the years, he isn't good at hiding his allegiances.
It's a faux Democratic forum and the only reason Libs stayed despite his nasty attitude towards them is that he advertises himself as a liberal site, so every time he does something like this, and he does it often the push back has been so intense he has had to back down or lose his site.
Left that Third Way cesspool with its bullies and operatives years ago. The only reason anyone goes there is BECAUSE of Bernie Democrats who are a majority there and everywhere else because they ARE democrats. When they leave, his site will be as interesting as it was when it started, which was 'zero'. Until Progressives began posting and people came to read THEM. No one ever there to read kos or his boring FPs
When people have an alternative to his phony Dem site, it will be left with only the 10% of Third Wayers and fade away into oblivion
That is now happening as his kind of 'dem' are being overtaken by the real Base of the party and the Internet is a lot bigger than when he started these tactics and people have lots of alternatives now.
This should not surprise ANYONE who is familiar with that site.
