this is bullshit! THEY are not democrats. Why don't the Hillary people call them out and work on the down ticket races. I'm not voting for any repubs turned dems, supported by our party!

Example:
Grayson vs. Murphy in FLA

People are fighting the party like mad in fla cuz this shit goes on all the time! Daryl Rouson is another example.

YOU CANNOT PUT A PIECE OF PAPER BETWEEN THE PARTIES ANYMORE. BERNIE SANDERS IS STILL THERE FOR THE DEMOCRATS, EVEN THOUGH THE PARTY IN SO MANY STATES IS NOT!

the point isn't to win elections, it's to boil the party down so that they win their elections MisterP Apr 2016 #16

Exactly. The sane people on both sides of the aisle have left their parties. HughLefty1 Apr 2016 #21
