Awesome! KPN Jul 2015 #317

Judging by the amount of help Gore got from the Clintons in 2000 corkhead Jul 2015 #209

That is a false statement. blackspade Jul 2015 #216

You know, spade, sayin' it doesn't make it true. Nitram Jul 2015 #251

Facts are what make it true. blackspade Jul 2015 #255

Nader ran as a third party candidate. senz Jul 2015 #240

Yes, its is: Dem's are having to waste money and time lewebley3 Jul 2015 #296

Wow, so you think debates are a waste of time and money? That there should be no choice? DebJ Jul 2015 #324

Obama, didn't debate anyone when he ran for a second term! lewebley3 Jul 2015 #328

Duh, uh, after you have been/currently ARE President, um, YES DebJ Jul 2015 #381

Hillary should keep evolving, times change, Political challenges change lewebley3 Jul 2015 #384

Wow, it is truly amazing how you stick to your position that no one should DebJ Jul 2015 #392

Another shining example of what Hillary supporters on DU are like Scootaloo Jul 2015 #412

So Nader voters took away from Gore's vote count in the general election. AlbertCat Jul 2015 #332

Sorry, to much is on the line: Sanders is not helping the Dem's fight the GOP lewebley3 Jul 2015 #406

Got anything to back that up with? This Sanders 'person' and every one of those I knew sabrina 1 Jul 2015 #283

History of the Dem's backs that up: Nader did not give speeches for Gore lewebley3 Jul 2015 #295

"Sanders people are into themselves"....what in the world does that mean, in English? DebJ Jul 2015 #382

I suspect we are down to open frustration. Betty Karlson Jul 2015 #242

Lets be clear RobertEarl Jul 2015 #370

and now you've personalized it. FSogol Jul 2015 #371

Speaking your language is all RobertEarl Jul 2015 #372

Show me one post where I have been disrespectful to Sanders. FSogol Jul 2015 #373

You disrepect yourself RobertEarl Jul 2015 #374

Couldn't find one, huh? FSogol Jul 2015 #375

You are the one claiming a threat: which is a false claim RobertEarl Jul 2015 #376

I've been quite pleased with the responses to my posts on O'Malley. You keep on FSogol Jul 2015 #377

Thanks RobertEarl Jul 2015 #378

Have a nice day?? You just threatened half of the posters here with backlash. JaneyVee Jul 2015 #3

Translation: I hate you all, Love Robert. FSogol Jul 2015 #6

LOL. Pretty much. JaneyVee Jul 2015 #7

With friends like you? RobertEarl Jul 2015 #8

You are making threats, but that doesn't mean I feel threatened. Pace yourself, FSogol Jul 2015 #10

LOL SunSeeker Jul 2015 #60

ROFL! Raine1967 Jul 2015 #72

Take YOUR OWN COUNCIL. Your claims of threats are desperate at best. 2banon Jul 2015 #187

I thought Bernistas prided themselves on their open-eyed view of the world. Nitram Jul 2015 #254

distorted twisted perspective on the definition of threat. n/t 2banon Jul 2015 #286

"a declaration of an intention or determination to inflict punishment in retaliation for... Nitram Jul 2015 #287

Threats. Followed by mockery? Here is why some are upset by your OP. Follow the White Rabbit: Fred Sanders Jul 2015 #276

Yeah, it is very sad. Sometimes it feels like I am reading Drudge or Briebart or Freepville FSogol Jul 2015 #277

Don't worry buddy, we'll all gladly support Bernie if he wins the nomination. JaneyVee Jul 2015 #11

No one is messing with Bernie, he is getting free ride because is a nice guy lewebley3 Jul 2015 #51

If y'all are so sure Bernie is going to win... Nitram Jul 2015 #256

Constant attacks? Bubzer Jul 2015 #388

"It is just advice to let you know that if you mess with Bernie, we take it personal." sufrommich Jul 2015 #174

Am I to understand that challenging the assumption of his electability is disrespectful? brooklynite Jul 2015 #5

The OP did not even come close to suggesting that. You know what disrespectful means. rhett o rick Jul 2015 #185

Think about 50% of American children living in poverty if the Republicans win... brooklynite Jul 2015 #190

And why would the GOP win? blackspade Jul 2015 #218

I'm not convinced... brooklynite Jul 2015 #223

I am so glad our founders were more brave than you. Take a chance on freedom and liberty. nm rhett o rick Jul 2015 #226

So you rationalize that 22% is ok. I am going for reducing that number, not justifying why it's ok. rhett o rick Jul 2015 #225

You are making some rather far-fetched and patronizing assumptions aboutt Clinton supporters. Nitram Jul 2015 #257

Wow. Since the poster doesn't define "electability", I had to assume as to what they meant. rhett o rick Jul 2015 #274

My suggestion is , if you are in doubt, ask what their definition is. Nitram Jul 2015 #275

My assumption was a legitimate assumption as I've many times that Sen Sanders rhett o rick Jul 2015 #281

It was a personal assumption, no matter how you try to defend it. Why not just ask? Nitram Jul 2015 #282

I was addressing the poster not Clinton supporters. rhett o rick Jul 2015 #284

"Not electable" is not equivalent to "not backed by enough coporate sponsors." Nitram Jul 2015 #285

I doubt that anyone here has ever said that Clinton has "not a liberal bone in her body". rhett o rick Jul 2015 #289

You kinda lost me there toward the end, but I liked the rest arcane1 Jul 2015 #9

To us, Clinton is more of the same RobertEarl Jul 2015 #14

And I remember the very same leftynyc Jul 2015 #56

So basically you can't take criticism of your candidate. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #12

This is the Hillary Clinton group. OnyxCollie Jul 2015 #36

That bubble should be made of steel. AlbertCat Jul 2015 #40

Safety glasses required. OnyxCollie Jul 2015 #65

Do you feel the same way about the Sanders group? hrmjustin Jul 2015 #127

Unlike Hillary, Bernie did not order diplomats to spy on the UN. OnyxCollie Jul 2015 #143

I said the Sanders group. Not Sanders. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #144

The Hillary Clinton group bans people OnyxCollie Jul 2015 #154

Comparing her to a republican or criticism of her is not allowed in our room. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #155

It's the land of Make Believe. OnyxCollie Jul 2015 #157

Do you approve of safe haven banning those who break their rules? hrmjustin Jul 2015 #160

Yes. OnyxCollie Jul 2015 #163

Well we can argue all night but i think i made and you made your point. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #166

I wear my ban with pride. OnyxCollie Jul 2015 #168

I am sure several wear their bans from different rooms with pride as well. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #169

I didn't criticise her or compare her to a Republican, yet I got blocked.... Violet_Crumble Jul 2015 #267

Well you are welcome to complain to skinner. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #314

Skinner's not a host of the group who blocked me because of a personal grudge. You are Violet_Crumble Jul 2015 #340

Take care and enjoy posting. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #341

I will. Just wanted other DUers to know they can be blocked for petty personal reasons... Violet_Crumble Jul 2015 #342

Lol i have plenty of times. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #343

What groups that yr supportive of the SOP of have you been blocked from because someone hates you? Violet_Crumble Jul 2015 #344

I have seen it done to others. I am not blocked from any group. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #345

So you think it's fair for anyone to be blocked because a host hates them? Violet_Crumble Jul 2015 #346

You are putting me in the position of publicly calling out a host of another group hrmjustin Jul 2015 #347

I take it ur answer is you do think it's fair Violet_Crumble Jul 2015 #348

Look, from what i read just before you were banned you got into it with several HRC supporters in hrmjustin Jul 2015 #349

Huh? No I didn't. And I've never critic used hlary Violet_Crumble Jul 2015 #350

But you gave our members a hard time. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #351

Again that's totally untrue. Violet_Crumble Jul 2015 #353

You posted this right before you were banned. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #354

That wasn't right before I was blocked and had nothing to do with hillary Violet_Crumble Jul 2015 #355

Yes it was you were banned the next day, hrmjustin Jul 2015 #356

No it wasn't. And it wasn't about Hillary. Violet_Crumble Jul 2015 #357

You posted it on the 21 and was blocked on the 22nd. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #358

My timestamp says 21st and 23rd... Violet_Crumble Jul 2015 #361

No but you gave HRC supporters here a hard time. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #362

So you keep on claiming, but that's just not true... Violet_Crumble Jul 2015 #363

We can argue this forever but i have no desire to. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #364

Well seeing there's nothing there to argue it'd be pointless Violet_Crumble Jul 2015 #365

Take care of yourself. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #366

Were you looking in a mirror when you typed that? Capt. Obvious Jul 2015 #271

The hrc room has been around since the beginning of DU3. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #312

How do you feel about the Sanders group? hrmjustin Jul 2015 #133

Not when Bernistas post stuff like this. Nitram Jul 2015 #260

The hRC group like the Sanders group is a safe haven for supporters. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #42

A safe haven OnyxCollie Jul 2015 #61

Oh FFS as if the Bernie group is any different LordGlenconner Jul 2015 #203

That's comical pscot Jul 2015 #57

I wasn't the one who banned you but it is a safe haven for HRC supporters. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #64

I was and am undecided for the primaries pscot Jul 2015 #88

You called her a place holder of the 1 percent. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #94

I still think she's a placeholder for the one percent pscot Jul 2015 #97

That is your right but the host was right to ban you. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #98

As noted, I didn't take it personally pscot Jul 2015 #106

And the ban was not personal. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #108

On that, I agree....I was banned from the Sanders group because I responded to a post... George II Jul 2015 #116

I agree and if I remember right they didn't before DU3. n/t A Simple Game Jul 2015 #129

Yeah that might be good, because I replied on a thread that was in the HRC 'safe haven' room and was PatrickforO Jul 2015 #192

I can see having separate forums for like-minded people where their ideas and thoughts... George II Jul 2015 #196

We are having the discussion in General Discussion. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #197

So we are! PatrickforO Jul 2015 #198

That's as offensive as people mistakenly claiming that Sanders is a "Communist" - I know it's... George II Jul 2015 #115

And THAT is what we've had to put up with on this site - all this "corporatist" candidate crap.... George II Jul 2015 #113

Yep. And we will not put up with it in the HRC room. hrmjustin Jul 2015 #117

We shouldn't have to put up with it anywhere on DEMOCRATIC Underground........ George II Jul 2015 #120

Discussions about viability are pointless at this stage. blackspade Jul 2015 #250
