Democratic Primaries
In reply to the discussion: UPDATE! Fred Guttenberg: "I absolutely cannot support @BernieSanders [View all]Amimnoch
(4,558 posts)So insulting that they think it's totally okay that their supporters are in no way shape or form obligated to support any of our long term, ACTUAL Democratic Party candidates, but have this ridiculous expectation that if he manages to get the nomination, that it's our obligation to fall in line like good little soldiers and get behind him. The double standard is disgusting, and from what I'm seeing around me, from the homes I've been canvassing while working for the Liz Fletcher, and MJ Hegar campaigns, in my own social circles, and on other sites where you are not obligated by rules to at least pretend you will support him if he wins are more and more deciding that they've had enough of him and aren't so willing to after all. anyone but bern or bust is a trending hash that's growing legs.
For the benefit of our country, I hope that he and his campaign gets their act together on this division they continue to sew, because as I said above.. their claims that we won't win without their support may be true, but he has absolutely NO shot at it without the "Democratic Party Establishment" banding together behind him if he does manage to pull off the primary.
We have won without his supporters before.. the revers cannot be said.
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
