SAY IT AIN�T SO: ALAN GRAYSON ENDORSES HILLARY CLINTON * [View all] DemocratSinceBirth Nov 2015 OP

Let 'em. Let 'em all. Fawke Em Nov 2015 #1

Thank you for your input and may the rest of your life be the best of your life. DemocratSinceBirth Nov 2015 #6

Not quite... Bubzer Nov 2015 #75

Res ipsa loquitur DemocratSinceBirth Nov 2015 #80

Still not an endorsement. Bubzer Nov 2015 #81

If I am on a list of supporters how could I not be a supporter? DemocratSinceBirth Nov 2015 #86

You don't know his reasons for joining the leadership council and niether do I. Bubzer Nov 2015 #91

I seem to recall hearing that Grayson said something about Sanders once. naoya6161 Nov 2015 #93

Let me explain it like this... DemocratSinceBirth Nov 2015 #95

Agreed. Assuming you knew about it. That website isn't exactly mainstream. Bubzer Nov 2015 #106

Hope dies hard! And around here it dies hard about 20 times a day! Walk away Nov 2015 #171

There are quite a few throwing him under the bus already. Take a look at his facebook page. Bubzer Nov 2015 #172

Well,he is a Democrat and it stands to reason he would support a Democrat.... Walk away Nov 2015 #173

Now that's just plain old denial. Gman Nov 2015 #96

Except this hasn't been confirmed outside of that no-name website. Bubzer Nov 2015 #101

Well, it's real. It happened. Gman Nov 2015 #105

Says a single website. You can believe it if you want, but I have a slightly higher bar to belief. Bubzer Nov 2015 #110

Well then good luck with Sanders Gman Nov 2015 #113

Have you called or emailed his office to confirm? zappaman Nov 2015 #114

And messaged him via facebook. Hoping to find out for sure one way or another. Bubzer Nov 2015 #117

Twitter would be another outlet. n/t zappaman Nov 2015 #120

Not a bad idea. I dont do twitter, but he might have made mention of it there. Bubzer Nov 2015 #121

I looked on Twitter Mnpaul Nov 2015 #151

Actually, not just a single website. naoya6161 Nov 2015 #115

Grayson's campaign confirmed nicsand Nov 2015 #177

Noted. Thanks for the confirmation. Bubzer Nov 2015 #180

It really did happen, and here's a link to a reputable website that confirms it naoya6161 Nov 2015 #107

Eh...that's not much of a confirmation. It does lend some credence to the claim, I'll admit. Bubzer Nov 2015 #116

Grayson jumped the shark for me when he got on the Ebola panic bandwagon. I got a fundraising call Erose999 Nov 2015 #122

Of course Gayson endorsed Hillary lewebley3 Nov 2015 #28

Isn't he trying to redeem himself? notadmblnd Nov 2015 #85

Doesn't need to redeem himself : He is a progressive like Hillary lewebley3 Nov 2015 #88

Where's the ALL CAPS SWARM? Segami Nov 2015 #2

Where to next? Under the bus? NurseJackie Nov 2015 #3

Grayson has been under the bus here on DU for ages. By some of the very Autumn Nov 2015 #18

Isn't that the truth. LOL! Baitball Blogger Nov 2015 #19

I know!! Isn't it hysterical!! And all this time Bernie fans thought this one would be theirs. NurseJackie Nov 2015 #22

You can have him! MoonchildCA Nov 2015 #26

IOW: "Those grapes were sour anyway." ATP: It looks like Bernie can't AFFORD to be so picky about NurseJackie Nov 2015 #31

Reminds me of the deBlasio endorsement. DemocratSinceBirth Nov 2015 #39

You dug it "because it upsets all the right people." senz Nov 2015 #124

You busted me. DemocratSinceBirth Nov 2015 #125

You redeemed yourself senz Nov 2015 #127

I will do my best to answer your implied question DemocratSinceBirth Nov 2015 #129

Some of those are weak and could easily be dropped senz Nov 2015 #130

The oligarchy preceded you and I and it will succeed you and I. DemocratSinceBirth Nov 2015 #131

Yes, we should all just give up. I mean, er, what? n/t JonLeibowitz Nov 2015 #149

When you topple the oligarchy please let me know. DemocratSinceBirth Nov 2015 #163

I don't actually care about toppling an oligarchy JonLeibowitz Nov 2015 #165

Maybe... MoonchildCA Nov 2015 #156

Excellent philosophy! NurseJackie Nov 2015 #159

Honestly, I'll vote for Hillary, if she's the nominee... MoonchildCA Nov 2015 #161

Insert "Bernie" where you wrote "Hillary", and change "he's" where you wrote "she's" � NurseJackie Nov 2015 #166

Oh dear .... ronnykmarshall Nov 2015 #76

Another insight. senz Nov 2015 #141

Happy to help ya ronnykmarshall Nov 2015 #145

Grayson is a member of DU Gman Nov 2015 #103

*Grayson's campaign fundraising staffer is a member of DU. tritsofme Nov 2015 #148

Indeed! MoonchildCA Nov 2015 #158

He might be a member of DU Art_from_Ark Nov 2015 #178

He used to a few years ago Gman Nov 2015 #179

Something just occurred to me. DemocratSinceBirth Nov 2015 #43

Irrelevant. Gman Nov 2015 #111

Uh no. I most certainly did not hope for an endorsement from him cali Nov 2015 #58

I can understand why you'd say that ... NurseJackie Nov 2015 #62

No. You really can't. You cali Nov 2015 #66

Irrelevant. Bernie needs endorsements. NurseJackie Nov 2015 #68

Cali is no fan of Grayson, you should search her posting history. tammywammy Nov 2015 #74

I have no doubts about that. I already told her that I believed her. No searching needed. NurseJackie Nov 2015 #82

I don't need to pretend anything, dear nurse. cali Nov 2015 #77

Sounds like someone's trying to hide their disappointment. NurseJackie Nov 2015 #83

Good grief. Do try a wee bit of logic cali Nov 2015 #87

Because you'd hoped Bernie's endorsement numbers would have improved by now, NurseJackie Nov 2015 #89

Post removed Post removed Nov 2015 #92

I know... THREE!!! A "surge" of 50% more!! Wouldn't that be exciting!!?? NurseJackie Nov 2015 #94

well that didn't last long Mosby Nov 2015 #112

To: Juror #1 � You're correct. I did not take offense. NurseJackie Nov 2015 #118

This is beyond pathetic. And not even directed at cali but why are people that have been on 4,5,6 Number23 Nov 2015 #147

and now there's a candle light vigil for her ronnykmarshall Nov 2015 #150

Teasing? passiveporcupine Nov 2015 #152

+1 Absolutely. BeanMusical Nov 2015 #137

Oh please ronnykmarshall Nov 2015 #155

Grayson only went under the bus: because: He is a progressive that is for Hillary lewebley3 Nov 2015 #29

Maybe he's triangulating the triangulator? Baitball Blogger Nov 2015 #21

I can remember some them shitting all over an OP he wrote here. cui bono Nov 2015 #23

Hillary is the 1%er's candidate after all n/t whatchamacallit Nov 2015 #25

Do you have a link to the op? NCTraveler Nov 2015 #33

No, I don't and I don't remember. n/t cui bono Nov 2015 #37

Pretty big assumptions for someone who doesn't remember something. NCTraveler Nov 2015 #42

Why do you say that? I said what I remember. I'm so sorry I can't remember enough to suit your needs cui bono Nov 2015 #46

Sure. nt Cali_Democrat Nov 2015 #45

He doesn't write or post here. JTFrog Nov 2015 #59

By that logic, are all of the Sanders people who love him going to say this is a solid endorsemen? NCTraveler Nov 2015 #35

Thump, thump ... thump, thump, thump, thump Agnosticsherbet Nov 2015 #12

I am not particularly a fan of his but I see his endorsement is upsetting all the right people. DemocratSinceBirth Nov 2015 #27

Doesn't upset me. His ethics are even worse than Hillary's. Perfect endorsement for her. cali Nov 2015 #61

Same here, DSB. BlueCaliDem Nov 2015 #63

He seemed to be a DU darling though... DemocratSinceBirth Nov 2015 #65

Well, Grayson kicked President Obama's shins a lot, so that's not surprising. BlueCaliDem Nov 2015 #169

As I said in another thread, she doesn't need this guy. MADem Nov 2015 #13

Ugh. Is he really in a romantic relationship with a Big Pharma lobbyist??? n/t cui bono Nov 2015 #15

I am not terribly enamored of him now, nor was I before this endorsement dsc Nov 2015 #49

The Berniebros better not make any complaints about Alan's personal life. Dawson Leery Nov 2015 #54

I've criticised him for his personal life, his disgusting rhetoric, his hedge fund bullshit cali Nov 2015 #67

She made him an offer he could not refuse Joe Turner Nov 2015 #153

Of course, that she would be the best person for the job. Amimnoch Nov 2015 #168

This is a very nice endorsement Gothmog Nov 2015 #162

His more moderate primary opponent had already endorsed Clinton Freddie Stubbs Nov 2015 #164

Yet another wonderful endorsement of the best candidate. Amimnoch Nov 2015 #167
