Virtual Tie? Where are the Clinton Supporters?

[GreatGazoo]

Sanders rally in Portland: 26,000
Hillary in Rainier: 1,500

AK, ID, WA, Hawaii - blow outs 71% or more to 28% or less

DU Sanders Group (72%): subscribers 984, trashing 172,
DU HRC Group (28%): subscribers 377, trashing 345, (banned: 767 DUers)

My FaceBook feed: full of Sanders stuff, not one positive HRC post

Is this an enthusiasm gap or a real gap, almost 3 to 1, in numbers?

1. There's an important takeaway here for the HRC supporters

There are at least 217 Bernie supporters at DU they haven't banned from the HRC group yet. (984 Bernie group subscribers less 767 banned by the HRC group.

Get to work!

3. Psst... I think those 217 Bernie subscribers may actually be Clinton fans keeping an eye on every

single post in the Bernie forum. You know, to make sure DU rules are not breached.

5. Good point

I forgot about them. I occasionally put a self described "Bernie supporter" on Ignore after they post a loyalty oath thread or do something else to give themselves away.

6. I haven't been banned there yet.

But, I have never posted there either.

I am RIDICULOUSLY careful to avoid going in to HRC threads from the Main Page. I usually enter threads from the Latest or Greatest threads pages as a rule.

And, I trashed the HRC Group very, very early in this primary season. Very soon after Bernie announced.

I strongly disagree with just about everything posted there, and I also know that I won't change a single person's mind that agrees with what's posted there so I ignore all of it.

10. Hey I'm not a HC devotee and I haven't been banned but I don't post there, otherwise I would be

banned but maybe someone will see this and ban me now.

I love Bernie!

[Ino]

14. Yeah, me too!

Put I'm probably on a lot of ignore lists.

Maybe we should just go in there and ASK to be banned? I think I'm missing something.

Berdie!

16. Or just post "I'm feelin the Bern" in their group, that would probably do it.

11. I don't even do GDPee anymore

Let alone step foot in the HRH forum.

Lots of great ideas and info here, but going there seems counter-productive. Who's got time for that?

4. Whoops! It's a good day to be a democratic socialist! nt

13. Nice. Thanks, illustrates how we should never look at the polls----

they never included cell users and independents.

7. What's the admission price to

dine with Hillary and Clooney??? When you've got "crass roots" sources like that - as well as corporate spigots you can tap .... who needs numbers? Dame Hillary's got Gingrinch syndrome : "I'm gonna BE the nominee."

8. If I were Amal Clooney I'd take the night off and go to a Bernie rally

Then again, she apparently spends $5000 on a pocketbook and so on, so she and $100 million bucks in the bank Hillary are probably buds.

15. You don't need big Rallys

If you send out absentee ballots to your supporters and then use voter suppression.
