(25,699 posts)11. Dialing it back from what?
There seems to be a dawning realization that stomping on flaming bags of poop just gets poop on your foot. it's a bit late in coming, but hey. Optimism.
I already opined on what party unity would take after this campaign. And after that, I kinda sat back out of the argument. I caucused for Bernie, chipped in a few dollars, but my abilities are limited, and so is my reach. Hillary's the likely nominee... but she won't win unless we're on board with her.

OP
Fuck that. This isn't 2008, and Bernie isn't another establishment Party insider like BO and HRC.

It's not one damned way different than when Bernie won his primaries over Clinton.

No YOU go easy on discussing Sanders supporters. You want to discuss them take it elsewhere.

According to Bernie, it's not about Bernie, so it really cannot be just about his candidacy.
