"Hillary Clinton Has A 'White Liberal' Problem That Will Help Bernie Sanders" [View all] villager Jul 2015 OP

Meh. The "minorities are all about name recognition" meme died several weeks ago. DanTex Jul 2015 #1

You probably wouldn't feel obliged to use terms like "lunatic," if everything was well.... villager Jul 2015 #2

You mean as in "Donald Trump is a lunatic"? You think that spells panic somehow? DanTex Jul 2015 #3

Um, did I post something written by Donald Trump? villager Jul 2015 #4

Did you? I don't know. Not that I know of. DanTex Jul 2015 #7

Exactly. villager Jul 2015 #10

Sure seems to be a lot of effort on the part of yourself and others to shitbag a "non-threat" Scootaloo Jul 2015 #6

Yeah, posting on DU, it's hard work... DanTex Jul 2015 #8

Well, more effort goes into making constant OP's shitbagging Sanders, than NOT doing so. Scootaloo Jul 2015 #12

Actually, most of my posts are defending Hillary from lies and smears. DanTex Jul 2015 #54

It's not a coincidence that the guy who wrote it is a Rand Paul fan. MADem Aug 2015 #103

Wow what a come back. nm rhett o rick Jul 2015 #75

All the name-calling and denigrating belies the "no worries" they stridently insist they have villager Jul 2015 #13

Indeed, it's a waste of precious hours, all for a guy who "can't win" arcane1 Jul 2015 #15

If only they would expend this much effort artislife Jul 2015 #78

I like O'Malley, but you just don't see the fiery rhetoric about that candidate. Could it be his Ed Suspicious Aug 2015 #98

Before he was a Sanders supporter he was a huge Rand Paul sufrommich Jul 2015 #9

And Hillary was a Goldwater supporter. villager Jul 2015 #14

When she was 17. This guy was supporting Rand Paul sufrommich Jul 2015 #18

So... you're saying people change? villager Jul 2015 #19

She was president of college Republicans at Wellesley SwampG8r Jul 2015 #72

Where she gave it up at age 21 to become a Democrat. onehandle Aug 2015 #88

Those roots run deep. That's why she's socially liberal/fiscally conservative. Ed Suspicious Aug 2015 #99

But not 16 as was claimed SwampG8r Aug 2015 #117

Don't you people ever get tired of repeating that 51 year old story? George II Aug 2015 #89

Good find. So one of the most popular Hillary-bashers on DU is a Paulite. Hmm. DanTex Jul 2015 #17

Has it ever occurred to you to respond to anything *actually in the OP*? villager Jul 2015 #20

H. A. Goodman is a DUer? bunnies Jul 2015 #21

I didn't mean he is a DUer, I meant he is popular on DU, i.e. DUers like him a lot. DanTex Jul 2015 #24

"If Sandra Bland Were a White Woman, Statistics Show She'd Be Alive Today" villager Jul 2015 #26

I agree with that. The Hillary-bashing Paulite stuff, not so much. DanTex Jul 2015 #29

So you agree with the "Paulite," eh? villager Jul 2015 #31

Seems like when he's not talking about presidential candidates, he's not so much of a loon. DanTex Jul 2015 #32

Ah, so you just save the "loon" card for when you *personally* disagree. villager Jul 2015 #34

Anyone who supports Rand Paul has shown pretty serious judgement issues. DanTex Jul 2015 #36

It should be self evident. Juicy_Bellows Jul 2015 #22

Hell, if they would even just *discuss an OP* -- for once -- that'd be a significant/refreshing villager Jul 2015 #28

That would be nice! Juicy_Bellows Jul 2015 #35

Hillary's evasiveness, combined with her baggage are weighing her down. jalan48 Jul 2015 #46

You see that same evasiveness in her supporters here. They can answer nothing directly. villager Jul 2015 #48

well, when you have nothing and didn't expect any real challenge ... MisterP Jul 2015 #67

K&R and not just for the article, the shrieking coming from her supporters is hillarious. beam me up scottie Jul 2015 #56

I don't post "hit pieces" on Dem candidates. beam me up scottie Jul 2015 #80

So many of them seem so incapable of responding directly to anything *in an OP* villager Jul 2015 #61

Why aren't they posting positive articles about their candidate? beam me up scottie Jul 2015 #63

sanders supporters do the same thing heaven05 Aug 2015 #94

how's it feel? heaven05 Aug 2015 #93

H. A. Goodman, the guy who wrote that article moobu2 Jul 2015 #66

So by that definition, anyone who writes positively about Hillary is a "propagandist." Right? villager Jul 2015 #74

If all the writer wrote were articles praising Hillary Clinton moobu2 Aug 2015 #90

So we should agree then that such articles by anyone who clearly supports a given candidate... villager Aug 2015 #100

It's a Rovian talking point, that's all. And it's beginning to really harm Hillary whether it is sabrina 1 Jul 2015 #68
