DAY 6 OF SPOILER WATCH

[onehandle]

​Hillary Clinton conceded 80 days before the Democratic Convention in 2008.

Today marks day 74 before the 2016 Democratic Convention.

Every day Senator Sanders does not concede, does damage to our nominee, and makes his eventual endorsement of Hillary Clinton less believable.

The Republican Nominee, Donald Trump, is already using Senator Sanders own words against the Democratic Nominee, Hillary Clinton.

Every moment Senator Sanders continues to campaign, will be used by the GOP.

Senator Sanders can concede and have his delegates represented at the convention, just like Hillary did in 2008. Senator Sanders can still be voted for in the few remaining primaries.

Senator Sanders is much farther behind Hillary Clinton at this point in 2008, than Hillary Clinton was behind President Obama.

It’s time to concede, Senator Sanders. The General Election has begun.

Every day over 80 days will reveal what failing to concede brings us.

1. SPOILER!

This is one lame fucking OP!





Seriously, you think we don't know Clinton dropped out in June after the last primary?

[bunnies]

4. Correction: it's 6 lame fucking OPs.

This poster is on a roll!

12. Missed a "t" in your last line.

[bunnies]

16. lol. That took me a minute.

Not too with it this morning.

[AgingAmerican]

2. She doesn't have enough delegates

Remember math?

In 2008 she conceded once OBAMA HAD ENOUGH DELEGATES

You are comparing apples and oranges. But you already know that.

[bunnies]

3. You realize Hillary conceded after all states voted, right?

It's been pointed out in every one of you're ridiculous threads. You STILL don't get it?

[morningfog]

11. They know. But they pimp the lie to disrupt the board.

[Proud Public Servant]

5. History lesson? Really? Here's your history lesson:

On this day in 2008, Hillary Clinton was down 164 pledged delegates, with only 217 delegates left to be awarded. That meant she had to pick up a whopping 88% of the remaining delegates to pass Obama -- a far higher percentage that Bernie needs to pass Hillary, and ridiculous goal that everyone at the time acknowledged was impossible.

But she stayed in.

Even won several more contests.

And she didn't concede until two days after the very last primary.

Bernie is doing EXACTLY what Hillary did in 2008. And then explain why it was okay for Hillary then, but not okay for Bernie now. Because I can't see any difference at all.

[GoneOffShore]

14. Because Hilary! And the firm of WJC-HRC, Inc.

And because 'She Who Must Be Obeyed' can do no wrong.

6. Days before the convention is actually bullshit.

She didn't concede until several days after the last primary that year. This year's convention is a month earlier than the one in 2008.

We still have several more primaries to go, including the one in my state, New Mexico. I want a chance to vote for Bernie, thank you very much.

7. If You're Right, Why Did She Promise To Fight Until The End In 2008?

Have you forgotten the 2008 interview in which she reminded voters that her husband didn't clinch the 1992 nomination until California?

Why the double standard?

In last week's national poll, why did 57% of Democrats wish Sanders to remain?

Why did Paul Begala, a noteworthy Clinton advocate, opine that Sanders should remain?

[thesquanderer]

8. At what point does posting the same exact thing every day become spam?

People make perfectly good counter responses which are never addressed. i.e. Hillary did not concede until after the last vote was cast. All you do is ignore every response and post the same thing over and over. You're spamming the board.

[morningfog]

10. Not spam, but trolling.

9. DAY 6 OF ONEHANDLE'S LYING SCHTICK.

13. No Clinton is not the marker for when a candidate becomes a spoiler
