Do you call for end to the bashing of HRC on this forum as well, in those threads? LexVegas Jun 2016 #1

Oh good grief SheenaR Jun 2016 #3

it's early days n/t PaulaFarrell Jun 2016 #34

Well to be fair it is only the 15th. Silver_Witch Jun 2016 #40

I have. And furthermore, I stopped posting negative stories cali Jun 2016 #4

Fair enough. nt LexVegas Jun 2016 #7

Bashing??! Does she want to be a 'public servant?' immoderate Jun 2016 #9

The OP is about bashing a public servant. LexVegas Jun 2016 #15

Actually, yes democrattotheend Jun 2016 #71

Amen SheenaR Jun 2016 #2

After months of BS supporters outnumbering Clinton by about 8 to 1, and the BS supporters Squinch Jun 2016 #11

Please please SheenaR Jun 2016 #14

Whatever. 85% and 15% Squinch Jun 2016 #52

I'm still cool with him cali. NCTraveler Jun 2016 #5

I know that, NC. You're setting a good example for your fellow cali Jun 2016 #6

Because there is a specific intent to discredit progressive ideology before the November elections. arcane1 Jun 2016 #8

Oh please. Demsrule86 Jun 2016 #33

Proving my point, but not clever enough to realize it arcane1 Jun 2016 #48

Your sig line reads "kindness and love". I'm not feeling it. elias7 Jun 2016 #61

Especially since the officially approved phrase for Barrier Breakers is "Love and Kindness" arcane1 Jun 2016 #63

We are all progressives? choie Jun 2016 #75

That's it on the nose. In this campaign they have had to reveal their conservatism, and they're Doctor_J Jun 2016 #60

Exactly. They want all progressive candidates silenced. (nt) w4rma Jun 2016 #76

I haven't heard him say he lost. grossproffit Jun 2016 #10

so what? cali Jun 2016 #12

At present we do not have a nominee. Therefore, no winner, no loser. senz Jun 2016 #42

Actually, it's not clear at all he'll work WITH Hillary. Only against Trump. CrowCityDem Jun 2016 #13

Wait wait SheenaR Jun 2016 #17

There's a difference between saying Trump sucks, and saying they should happily vote for Hillary. CrowCityDem Jun 2016 #26

Im sorry SheenaR Jun 2016 #37

It's not enough, because "anything" includes a full endorsement. Otherwise, Bernie's a big fat liar. CrowCityDem Jun 2016 #43

Nicely done. JonLeibowitz Jun 2016 #49

When one's job is to shit on EVERY thing Sanders does, consistency and logic go out the window n/t arcane1 Jun 2016 #65

what things within his power to defeat Trump has Bernie done thus far? geek tragedy Jun 2016 #73

as a Bernie supporter, I'm not sure what he's hoping for, but.... renate Jun 2016 #16

A person who can not admit he lost and play by the rules is not someone I Demsrule86 Jun 2016 #32

"play by the rules"? renate Jun 2016 #50

"He's breaking rules!" is a popular lie among this crowd n/t arcane1 Jun 2016 #67

Thank you and this is a wonderful post! Silver_Witch Jun 2016 #45

Here here! I totally agree. Why is it not enough for the presumptive candidates supporters Seeinghope Jun 2016 #68

One would hope merkins Jun 2016 #18

Bernie and Trump are both opposition until Bernie concedes. nt Demsrule86 Jun 2016 #30

it's more about posters on du getting at each other JI7 Jun 2016 #19

He is in the way...and must go, or he gets nothing. Demsrule86 Jun 2016 #28

Because many of his supporters see that as an EXCUSE to bash and smear Hillary. NurseJackie Jun 2016 #20

This. nt LexVegas Jun 2016 #23

Yeah... TwilightZone Jun 2016 #24

This is very true. I have yet to see a celebratory thread for Hillary that has not been Squinch Jun 2016 #77

Post removed Post removed Jun 2016 #21

I don't consider many of Bernie's people progressive. nt Demsrule86 Jun 2016 #27

Of course he's bashing Hillary Cali_Democrat Jun 2016 #22

I said he isn't currently bashing her and he hasn't been for the past cali Jun 2016 #31

So she made herself irrelevant? k8conant Jun 2016 #41

Your best argument is that Hillary has made herself irrelevant? OK, you go with that. Squinch Jun 2016 #78

He had to admit he lost. The healing process can't begin until he does that. Demsrule86 Jun 2016 #25

I agree it should stop on both sides Andy823 Jun 2016 #29

We are waiting on his endorsement. Democrats allowed him to run as asuhornets Jun 2016 #35

Yes. Till he concedes, he is the opposition and can't be having sadz that he is treated as such. It Squinch Jun 2016 #79

Yes, grace would be nice to see. elleng Jun 2016 #36

I found it strange until I read that Matt Taibbi story about the DNC elites view of this primary. That Guy 888 Jun 2016 #38

What an odd way to try and validate his legitimacy. NurseJackie Jun 2016 #46

Taibbi nailed it. I mean, it's been so obvious all year Ned_Devine Jun 2016 #56

Nothing. He should do it on his own terms. bigwillq Jun 2016 #39

He can exit when the voting's done... k8conant Jun 2016 #44

Sore winners. blackspade Jun 2016 #47

Fine, as long as his terms don't include letting Republicans pick Dem candidates in our primaries LisaM Jun 2016 #51

I'm sure you realize that something like 19 states don't register cali Jun 2016 #55

I certainly do realize that. LisaM Jun 2016 #70

Bernie does not make those rules. bvar22 Jun 2016 #66

Amen, Cali. I simply don't understand this strange impulse some posters here have. emulatorloo Jun 2016 #53

I am from Alabama I know what bernie thinks of me.... stonecutter357 Jun 2016 #54

Because he's a Democrat--supposedly. LuvLoogie Jun 2016 #57

A lot of us really really don't want Trump to be president, and we see Bernie's actions at YouDig Jun 2016 #58

The "ego" meme again. You so don't get It. elias7 Jun 2016 #64

So explain it. What is the point of what he's doing now? YouDig Jun 2016 #74

Many of them despise Sanders, and admit it. They also despise his supporters, and liberalism Doctor_J Jun 2016 #59

That's one impressively ridiculous set of assertions. TwilightZone Jun 2016 #69

I find this one to be more accurate. LWolf Jun 2016 #83

BTW ~ Jury voted 3-4 to LEAVE IT. In_The_Wind Jun 2016 #82

Almost all of my posts get alerted these days Doctor_J Jun 2016 #86

Perhaps things will get better for you over the next few weeks. In_The_Wind Jun 2016 #87

Nailed it vintx Jun 2016 #89

It's not difficult at all PJMcK Jun 2016 #62

he hasn't made it clear he'll be working with her to defeat Trump, he's only promised that geek tragedy Jun 2016 #72

Nothing. He should take all the time he needs. It certainly doesn't look bad at all. nt eastwestdem Jun 2016 #80

Because he lost, and should have exited ... NanceGreggs Jun 2016 #81

Because the Politburo does not ever want another challenge from an outsider. hobbit709 Jun 2016 #84

We must all be submissive first Lazy Daisy Jun 2016 #85
