We should all rally to the nominee no matter how we feel about them.
The alternative is some nightmarish asshole who wants to fuck the working people of this country for an extra buck.

Last night's election here in KY underscored that point.

A Quick Reminder for This Primary Season [View all] bravenak Nov 2015 OP

Now if we can stop seeing posts that ask if members will vote for the Nominee Agnosticsherbet Nov 2015 #1

It should be a given that we vote for the nominee. bravenak Nov 2015 #3

I also had trashed that forum, NurseJackie Nov 2015 #17

Same here. I forgot that they still show up. bravenak Nov 2015 #20

That's how I got banned from the Hillary group. I was responding to a post valerief Nov 2015 #57

I feel better now. Thanks. :-) NurseJackie Nov 2015 #73

No demerits. bravenak Nov 2015 #86

Thanks. :-) nt NurseJackie Nov 2015 #113

No one should ask, period. merrily Nov 2015 #81

Plenty of Bernie supporters make these statements unsolicited, no one is goading anyone Sheepshank Nov 2015 #19

An undolicited statement is the fault of whoever made it. Agnosticsherbet Nov 2015 #23

Yes, thank you. However, people are also perfectly capable of not replying--even though I was merrily Nov 2015 #80

An important repost, thanks. Erich Bloodaxe BSN Nov 2015 #2

I see it the same. bravenak Nov 2015 #5

Well, I've never advocated. Erich Bloodaxe BSN Nov 2015 #6

It is a grey area. bravenak Nov 2015 #8

It's not too hypothetical for a ban, so.... merrily Nov 2015 #78

Yeah. Erich Bloodaxe BSN Nov 2015 #114

I had it wrong whatchamacallit Nov 2015 #15

I'm sorry but passiveporcupine Nov 2015 #84

It started out as a liberal/progressive underground Art_from_Ark Nov 2015 #110

'I'm sorry but' Erich Bloodaxe BSN Nov 2015 #115

I'm not saying you shouldn't be fighting for a progressive candidate passiveporcupine Nov 2015 #122

Kick. Agschmid Nov 2015 #4

Thanks, would you please add the link too? uppityperson Nov 2015 #7

Yes. bravenak Nov 2015 #9

from my read of it restorefreedom Nov 2015 #10

I agree. bravenak Nov 2015 #11

i have to say i have never used ignore or trash restorefreedom Nov 2015 #16

I have only started using ignore this week. Best thing ever. Seriously. bravenak Nov 2015 #50

wow...i hear that a lot..hmmmm might have to experiment. nt restorefreedom Nov 2015 #53

Ignore the worst from both sides? You do not see the drama. Nice. bravenak Nov 2015 #54

it could help my blood pressure too :) nt restorefreedom Nov 2015 #55

I've had "the pizza'd one" on Ignore for nearly a year. I couldn't stand BlueCaliDem Nov 2015 #96

I see it has calmed down a bit. bravenak Nov 2015 #100

Considerably...although there are still a few pushing the limits as we speak. BlueCaliDem Nov 2015 #106

This post should be pinned. JaneyVee Nov 2015 #12

It very much should. I did not realize the extent of how the TOS is used myself. bravenak Nov 2015 #13

Yeah, this is a good timely clarification. JaneyVee Nov 2015 #14

Kick & recommended. William769 Nov 2015 #18

I am feeling a bit relieved to have this clarified. bravenak Nov 2015 #47

Yes! And what a Glaring way to make it known there will be Zero tolerance for Cha Nov 2015 #94

Nice play on words! bravenak Nov 2015 #104

Grazie! Cha Nov 2015 #105

Fantastic post! Thanks for linking to that. onehandle Nov 2015 #26

Awseome! Glad we all know the rules now! bravenak Nov 2015 #49

Yeah they mean it. Godhumor Nov 2015 #30

Sounds like you are not very happy here passiveporcupine Nov 2015 #82

WOW!!! You may want to delete this really awful attack on the admins. n/t JimDandy Nov 2015 #107

I think they mean it. bravenak Nov 2015 #42

The only people who need to take responsibility are Lil Missy Nov 2015 #108

A freakin' men Bleacher Creature Nov 2015 #28

Good clarification mcar Nov 2015 #29

I'll be supporting the nominee... MohRokTah Nov 2015 #31

Yep! bravenak Nov 2015 #61

I will be supporting the party's nominee no matter who it is Gothmog Nov 2015 #99

Yes! workinclasszero Nov 2015 #116

Excellent reminder, Bravenak. sheshe2 Nov 2015 #32

You are welcome. I hope we all can be reasonable now. bravenak Nov 2015 #41

...so everybody unclench. Iggo Nov 2015 #33

I think the admins mean it. Remember L0oniX? progree Nov 2015 #35

He also said "not every member of your coalition will be your ideological soulmate" Warren DeMontague Nov 2015 #36

Then perhaps those that feel that things will be in shambles if their candidate does not win the bravenak Nov 2015 #38

Oh, i think a lot of people should take note. Warren DeMontague Nov 2015 #43

I was not here in 2011. I do not know what you mean by this. bravenak Nov 2015 #46

I didn't mean you. Warren DeMontague Nov 2015 #67

Ahhh! bravenak Nov 2015 #68

I'm not talking about 'the purge', either. Warren DeMontague Nov 2015 #95

He's talking about the History of Feminism members and I believe iverglas being banned in 2011 seaglass Nov 2015 #118

Good God. bravenak Nov 2015 #119

My, that is convoluted BainsBane Nov 2015 #125

Perhaps everyone should take note. merrily Nov 2015 #87

I think the Loonix ban was a bad one because the OP specifically said the pledge was ... aikoaiko Nov 2015 #37

Perhaps there will be an amnesty period after the primary. bravenak Nov 2015 #39

Im gonna misss that little bug he had crawling on his posts. Warren DeMontague Nov 2015 #40

I swatted my screen for half a thread before I caught on. polly7 Nov 2015 #48

Dibs on the bug gif. aikoaiko Nov 2015 #52

L0onix said nothing. The entire post was copied and pasted from another website, with a link. merrily Nov 2015 #88

Yep. It was a bad ban. aikoaiko Nov 2015 #90

On the plus side, LOonix still has a 60% chance of serving on a jury. Star member 9 years, merrily Nov 2015 #91

I have a question... Chitown Kev Nov 2015 #44

I think that is an offense that may be given a bit of leeway, especially if made in frustration. bravenak Nov 2015 #51

I have no issues with Skinner's post. blackspade Nov 2015 #56

Yes. We need those seats more than we need to please ourselves. bravenak Nov 2015 #58

Blech. blackspade Nov 2015 #59

Scalia makes me sick too!!! bravenak Nov 2015 #60

The way I read the TOS going back to the spring, it's okay to talk about who or how.... George II Nov 2015 #62

I think the advocation for a third party run is the issue we had today. bravenak Nov 2015 #63

Yes, that's what the issue was today. Voting "third party" would happen after the primaries.... George II Nov 2015 #65

Maybe this will help the atmosphere? bravenak Nov 2015 #72

All I will say is I hope that... one_voice Nov 2015 #66

Me too. Or Jim Webb. Don't want him. bravenak Nov 2015 #69

Some people here are in the wrong business TSIAS Nov 2015 #70

This was from Skinner, today. bravenak Nov 2015 #71

You said it much better than I could davidpdx Nov 2015 #111

I tried to warn this person yesterday, but now whoever it was is tombstoned. valerief Nov 2015 #74

You did what you could. Some will just not listen to reason. bravenak Nov 2015 #75

Thanks for that clear information. F4lconF16 Nov 2015 #77

I think it is okay to post. bravenak Nov 2015 #79

I only advocate against certain Democrats. F4lconF16 Nov 2015 #89

It should be during primary season. bravenak Nov 2015 #93

I am happy to see that, since the reason I don't visit here often is there is not much support for Todays_Illusion Nov 2015 #83

Things have been like this for awhile. bravenak Nov 2015 #92

K&R! betsuni Nov 2015 #97

Thanks for posting Gothmog Nov 2015 #98

No prob. bravenak Nov 2015 #101

I saw the thread in question, Jamaal510 Nov 2015 #102

The admins are feeling kind today for sure. bravenak Nov 2015 #103

The ToS page is hilarious if you look at how different it reads from other forum's ToS ffr Nov 2015 #109

So just to clarify Bravenak.. Kentonio Nov 2015 #112

How dare you!!!! Iggo Nov 2015 #117

Read my sigline. bravenak Nov 2015 #120

So you'll happily vote for him if he's the nominee? Kentonio Nov 2015 #121

Wow, is that avatar ever a blast from the past for someone here less than a month. What a find! nt Hekate Nov 2015 #124
