I must hand it to her, the lady has guts, but.... wundermaus May 2016 #33
The beef is with the procedural issues, right? Everyone agrees with Clinton winning more delegates Corporate666 May 2016 #14
Bernie had 58 delegates disqualified, which made the difference jfern May 2016 #16
1% joshcryer May 2016 #18
Nope, all 58 were Bernie jfern May 2016 #22
Even if that were true, which someone already said it is not, why would anyone complain cui bono May 2016 #67
And 6 who were originally DQ'ed were allowed in Corporate666 May 2016 #21

64 delegates. Fawke Em May 2016 #29
People are pissed they couldn't flip the result gaming the caucus system. joshcryer May 2016 #17
Sounds like a damn good reason for taking out those Sanders delegates. delrem May 2016 #27
Sounds like a damn good reason to get rid of caucuses. joshcryer May 2016 #31
Perhaps, but your argument was that this move, which happened in a "caucus", delrem May 2016 #39
What? I think this is bullshit across the board. joshcryer May 2016 #44
You seem unaware of what you wrote in posts just a few minutes ago. delrem May 2016 #61
I don't see an inconsistency. joshcryer May 2016 #62
No, you said that caucus rules won the day against crooked Sanders delegates, delrem May 2016 #63
Well yeah, the shitty caucus rules managed to represent the will of the people. joshcryer May 2016 #65
That's quite some pretzel, joshcryer. You rock. delrem May 2016 #66
The caucus system is corrupt and undemocratic Dem2 May 2016 #69
Oh no, people are definitely arguing the outcome HerbChestnut May 2016 #19
Are you saying the rules don't allow delegates to be verified? Corporate666 May 2016 #25
I'm not talking about delegate eligibility HerbChestnut May 2016 #32
RCP has had her ahead 20-15 for some time Corporate666 May 2016 #37
Yeah, it's completely reasonable to refuse entry .99center May 2016 #53
Sanders supporters tried changing the rules without 2/3rds vote. joshcryer May 2016 #38
We had the 2/3 vote by voice vote. kiva May 2016 #40
Nope. joshcryer May 2016 #43
Actually loud was exactly how the voice votes were determined for the convention. kiva May 2016 #46
They weren't 2/3rds louder. joshcryer May 2016 #48
According to several people manning tables kiva May 2016 #54
No, it's not "obvious" that the Clintonites had a majority. Remember that they refused to count the w4rma May 2016 #42
A room count requires a 2/3rds vote. joshcryer May 2016 #45
Exactly. But, the Nevada establishment did just that and dared everyone to do something about it. nt w4rma May 2016 #58
First of all... HerbChestnut May 2016 #47
2/3rds of the vote would've been distinguishable. joshcryer May 2016 #50
But there was no vote HerbChestnut May 2016 #51
So you are fine with states where the superdelegates stole it? northernsouthern May 2016 #20
We keep hearing super delegates are uncommitted and can vote for whoever they want Corporate666 May 2016 #28
