to Bernie again this morning. Like it or not, no matter how much you wish he would drop he's taking this to convention. Count on it.

Edited to add: Well, going back over it now that I've had my first cup of coffee and finished waking up. I realize how aggressive this read. To clarify, people have been vicious on BOTH sides of the fence. Whether you want him to win, are praying for an indictment, plain old hate HRC, support her, want him to drop out, want the first female pres. Whatever your flavor he's in it till convention. This is about a hell of a lot more than the nomination. This is about saving the soul of our party. Going back and forth with "Uh huh" "NUH UH!" "YES HUH" "NO WAY" isn't going to do a dang thing. Spiteful zingers included. So "Go ahead, keep posting vicious crap. I just donated to Bernie" and will keep supporting Bernie's agenda

1. I think I will do the same

[Mother Of Four]

5. Thank you!

YAY!

[floriduck]

54. I did too. mm

[peacebird]

7. Dang skippy

[JaneyVee]

4. What is he going to do at the convention?

[Mother Of Four]

8. What do you care what he does?

According to you Hillary has nothing to worry about, so why even ask?

[Codeine]

9. Sweet-ass buffets. nt

[JaneyVee]

12. True true.

[leftofcool]

10. He will drop out before that.

[LexVegas]

11. Give a heartfelt endorsement of Hillary Clinton and start campaigning for her. nt

[DanTex]

13. He's not going to be the nominee. At this point, lottery tickets would be a better use of money.

[Mother Of Four]

15. Thanks but no thanks for the advice...

go ahead and keep being dismissive, it says a whole lot more about you folks than it does me.

[LAS14]

14. For another point of view.

This yelling back and forth sounds like the Republicans. For my part I'm grateful for the Sanders campaign. First it honed Hillary's message, and, yes, pulled it farther left. That's a good thing. Then it gave the Democrats some attention in spite of the Republican debacle. Where would we be if she was basically unopposed? We're a stronger party. I look forward to a rousing presence by Bernie and his supporters at the convention, forcefully putting forth the message about income inequality. Hopefully where we demostrate what it can be like when people in the same party disagree but come together to keep Trump out of the White House.

17. Thank you :)

Awesome that you see how important it is that he takes this to convention, even if he doesn't get the delegates.

[LAS14]

30. Can you help spread the word?

I decided to post this stand alone in hopes that it can get lots of responses.

47. I K and R'ed

But you might want to request the OP be moved to Primaries forum... GD isn't for the primaries. They have it in here to keep the ick from flowing over everywhere else

[Dr Hobbitstein]

32. Americans for Limited Government?

You're posting comics from a site that wants to shut down the EPA?

Strange bedfellows, indeed. I'd self-delete.

[PonyUp]

33. A cartoon is just a cartoon. Would you feel better if I save it to my facebook and then post it? n/t

[Dr Hobbitstein]

34. No, it's a RW cartoon from a RW website.

And you're now defending it.
Posting it to your facebook won't change the author of the cartoon, nor who he works for.

Any port in a storm, eh?

[PonyUp]

40. A cigar is just a cigar.

[Dr Hobbitstein]

41. Triple down.

Wow.

[SidDithers]

39. The right hates Hillary. The fringe left hates Hillary...

and sometimes it's damned hard to tell them apart.

Sid

[ismnotwasm]

44. That is a messed up website.

I don't know why I looked.

[Agschmid]

57. Too late it seems.

[Renew Deal]

16. Good. Devine and Weaver need to get paid

$$$$

[MadBadger]

18. Define vicious

[Mother Of Four]

20. 4th definition down in the dictionary

4.
spiteful; malicious

[MadBadger]

22. Define vicious as it pertains to DU. What are the vicious things people are posting

[Mother Of Four]

29. I really want to answer this -

I even went to the forum post list, and started to click things from both sides on the fence.

Then I thought better of it. If I repeat here what EITHER side is saying that's spiteful/malicious - I'm just spreading it. He's in it until the convention period. Win or lose he has an agenda to bring the county to it's feet. A very important agenda. This about much more than the nominee. NCT said it best upthread.

[MadBadger]

37. Then answer it. I've been back for all of 13 hours. I havent seen anything truly vicious.

[Mother Of Four]

42. Sadly there's actually a couple right here in this thread.

Def 4 ... spiteful. Like the buffets comment, He will drop out, that right wing cartoon that was posted against Hillary etc. If you look at my OP I updated it now that I've had coffee. None of that was necessary and was apparently only posted out of sheer meanness.

Edited to add, the lottery ticket comment... the stick a fork in him he's done crap.. sheer spite.

[NCTraveler]

21. Not sure what you mean by "vicious"

But I support you giving him more money. In the coming weeks his message will stay the same minus the Clinton distinctions. He will be building the democratic brand and talking about issues dear to us. Money well spent.

[Bonobo]

23. NCTraveler...

You've been damned respectful and kind this whole silly season (not without exceptions I am sure, but definitely worthy of praise).

[Mother Of Four]

26. ...

[NCTraveler]

27. Thank you very much.

There is no doubt I have taken some really nasty shots. Fact is I really do like a lot of the Sanders supporters on this board and really want to keep it that way.

[Bonobo]

28. To me your efforts and successes are more meaningful than any failures you might have had. nt

[Mother Of Four]

25. 4th def in the dictionary

4.
spiteful; malicious

And thank you for that NC, I really appreciate it.

[Alfresco]

24. Will Bernie give his leftover primary funds to the Democratic National Committee?

[Logical]

36. I hope the hell not. The DNC is a joke. Nt

[mountain grammy]

46. +1000

[hrmjustin]

31. I think it is great you donated to Bernie.
