70. Hillary Clinton isn't even Bill Clinton (let along Pataki). Ideologically, Hillary is about midway

between Pataki and Sanders.

Pataki was the Republican candidate who had the least bad record on reproductive liberties and the most support for Planned Parenthood.

If Planned Parenthood had endorsed Pataki, how would you react?

Bullshit. The vast majority of DU Sanders supporters support PP cali Jan 2016 #7

If one said it, we all said Hillary cult thought. JRLeft Jan 2016 #28

I would say the exact opposite is the real truth. 99Forever Jan 2016 #5

Well, see, Bernie didn't get the PP endorsement leftofcool Jan 2016 #6

Horse shit. But then when I congratulated Clinton on the endorsement cali Jan 2016 #9

It's been fun to watch, trumad. Buzz Clik Jan 2016 #10

I would add Hilary's supporters at DU are an embarrassment bobGandolf Jan 2016 #43

Of course you would. Buzz Clik Jan 2016 #45

They are a HUGE embarrassment. Crapping all over BLM until one BLM group endorsed Bernie stevenleser Jan 2016 #89

It was surreal. And what was so astonishing is I think they genuinely believe that no one saw that Number23 Jan 2016 #103

that may have changed once they found out that the endorsement was possibly bought 2pooped2pop Jan 2016 #20

Uh huh trumad Jan 2016 #25

The ease at which you drag this woman's name though the sufrommich Jan 2016 #27

If Bernie had received this endorsement the responses would be like.......... leftofcool Jan 2016 #71

I am not sorry you did because your first response to that person was pure genius. randys1 Jan 2016 #129

I agree. cali Jan 2016 #53

so why endorse in the primary? That's what even the worst of Bernie supporters are on about. MrChuck Jan 2016 #56

The one who has the "great record" is Hillary, thank you.No one wants to touch women's health rights Hekate Jan 2016 #137

None of that matters to the many cranks that Geek Tragedy referenced upthread. stevenleser Jan 2016 #124

PP's PAC overplayed its hand - and like DWS is feeling the popular backlash. Betty Karlson Jan 2016 #21

Oh but according to some in this thread---it's a minority. trumad Jan 2016 #26

that's the thing, we don't coordinate. 2pooped2pop Jan 2016 #33

Coordination goes on at some sites behind closed doors . I don't know of any Sanders site Autumn Jan 2016 #39

nor do I, but then I don't really frequent his sites. 2pooped2pop Jan 2016 #40

Is that what camp Clinton's keyboard warriors do: co-ordinate? Betty Karlson Jan 2016 #80

A perfectly illustrative response. OilemFirchen Jan 2016 #42

Well, I'm not a petulant child. I'm content to use that as a metric. OilemFirchen Jan 2016 #62

How would you react if Planned Parenthood endorsed George Pataki? Attorney in Texas Jan 2016 #65

Oh so Hillary is Pataki? trumad Jan 2016 #67

Great catch. BTW, think about what it means for PP to make their first EVER endorsement randys1 Jan 2016 #134

For the record, I have no problem with it. PP can endorse as they choose. Warren DeMontague Jan 2016 #104
