In reply to the discussion: Thank you Bernie Sanders For Running Such A Positive Campaign & Continuing To Do So. [View all]sabrina 1
(62,325 posts)posts about this most positive campaign. Not to mention that reading here is a riot.
Bernie wins 8 states in a row, flips TWO more she had claimed to have won, erodes her delegate lead by over 130 delegates, collects enough delegates in NY even with all the Election Fraud here, to stop her from what she really needed, a clean sweep, and her supporters go off the deep end claiming AGAIN for the umpteenth time 'it's over'!
I laugh my head off when I leave the real world and go check out her forums. They are not living in the real world.
She was again unable, with all the voter suppression etc which only seems to occur in the fewer and fewer states she's been 'winning', to 'wrap it up' as she calls ending the democratic process. And all she managed to do was to get back just 29 of the 130 delegates Bernie took away from her over the past couple of weeks.
So she's still nowhere near 'clinching' the nomination, only in the minds of those who are not familiar with the concept of democracy. I won't be around here much, we've got so much work to do, watching for fraud eg, in the next closed primary states, making sure people are watching closely who is doing it etc.
Just popped in and was instantly struck by how few people there are here now, I guess most democrats are moving to Social Media and the several new progressive blogs that are popping up.
