2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Hillary Clinton SNUBS MoveOn.org [View all]Stonepounder
(4,033 posts)107. Holy mackerel!
I don't freaking believe it. It used to be that DU was a w arm and welcoming place where Democrats could come together and DISCUSS. Reading through the comments on this thread it sounds more like a Second Grade class going "Did Too!", "Did Not", "Yeah, well my dad can lick your dad!"
There are folks who like Bernie, there are folks who like Hillary, and a few who even like O'Mally. That's cool. But let's discuss the candidates, not sound like whiny children. And that's what this entire list of comments sounds like. <sigh> Is there anywhere on the web I can go and find adults discussing the pro's and con's of the candidates, rather than a 'did too' 'did not' sort of argument?

A lot of Progressives to risk alienating. Going to need a lot of independents to make up for it.

Seems an endorsement from Moveon.org would probably hurt more than help in the GE.

Clinton: so self-centred that she is hellbent on throwing the election to the GOP.

I remember the Lincoln debacle. It was horrible and eye-opening as you say.

She's had good strategists before that have steered her wrong. I think this is one of those times.
