Just posting "HAHAHAHAHAHA nt" in response to something. Even the Bernie supporters had to let that one slide through or they'd have lost all credibility. Too late. That ship has sailed. They are gleeful over how they have used their little web widget to harass us but no matter. They think this sort of thing will work with voters and super delegates and I suspect they will find out in the end that it does not. Their hypocritical threats and abuse towards super delegates across Facebook to side with the popular vote of their state have been so rancorous—well, except for Grijalva, since they keep applauding him for NOT going with the popular vote of Arizona—so I don't image they'll have much luck courting super delegates.

All they have left now are their threats that they'll sit out in November if we go with any candidate other than theirs. We saw how that worked for the PUMAs and that was when Obama was up against a Republican candidate in 2008 who has always had a lot of crossover appeal. Trump might have had that early on due to his fame on TV but he's quickly poured that down the drain. I would like to see the Green Party voters who masquerade as "longtime democrats" on here (and it always seems to be "forty years" and no other number) support Hillary but I'm not worried either way. She will win in November. Bank on it, pun intended. :-D

President Kucinich proved how connected to the real America DU can be. nt hack89 Apr 2016 #24
I didn't say "more connected" I said "smarter". "ahead of the curve" or "trendsetting" works too jack_krass Apr 2016 #26
"Good at misreading political sentiment in America" is also pretty accurate. nt hack89 Apr 2016 #27
