We need everyone because the revolution isn't going to be televised.

(3,964 posts)A lot of Sanders supporters will accuse you being a Democrat in name only (DINO). Welcome to the Democratic Party.

(10,345 posts)So if the Democratic Party continues to undermine his truly progressive agenda, I'll probably become an undeclared when this is all said and done.

(8,846 posts)I switched to No Party Affiliation until last year, and I became a Dem again, just to vote for Bernie.
And I know dozens of other progressives who left the party about that time, and they're all returning again. Just to vote for Bernie.

(16,286 posts)are doing it to sink Hillary.
And they arent liberals or democrats, they are cons voting in areas where their votes arent relevant in the GOP primary.
So we do need to remember that.
Their mission is to register Dem, vote for Bernie so as to stop Hillary.
Their belief is Bernie cant win the general, I hope they are wrong.

(449 posts)I haven't heard of many independents/republicans switching party affiliation so they could vote for Clinton in the primaries and caucuses. People can dismiss if it they want to, but is says quite a bit about who these candidates are appealing to.
