Listen up Bernie Supporters, get a grip!

[retrowire]

Ugh, I can't believe I'm saying this to the most optimistic and enthusiastic group of supporters that any campaign has ever seen but...

YOU'VE GOT TO CALM DOWN AND COME BACK TO REALITY. I LOVE YOU, but please, sit down for a moment and stop with the pessimism, it's contagious and it's hurtful to our campaign.

Remember what we've been saying for WEEKS? This is Hillary's LAST GOOD DAY.

But then we won Michigan, and honestly, I think we let it get to our heads. We got overconfident and we invested a lot of emotion into tonight.

Originally, Bernie was not supposed to do well this day anyways.

It is AFTER THIS DAY, that Bernie is going to excel. We've known this, we have the data to prove it. All we had for tonight was the positive high of pulling off Michigan's upset.

So for the love of Bernie, PULL IT TOGETHER. This was expected for weeks. Don't let Michigan's win distort your reality.

We're still climbing and she's still falling. That reality hasn't changed. Stay the course.

Now snap out of it. We're fine.

ETA: And you know what? We were optimistic about winning EVEN WHEN WE THOUGHT WE WERE GOING TO LOSE MICHIGAN AND TODAY. So why the fuck is anyone upset that we ACTUALLY won Michigan and might not lose everything today? GAH.

[Cobalt Violet]

1. Absolutely true.

In as long a Bernie is.

[AmBlue]

2. Umm, could you change this thread title?

A bit on the negative side for something intended to spread cheer. Just sayin'...

Otherwise, I agree.

[retrowire]

11. I will apologize about the harshness of the title.

But I can't remove it. It does sting a little, but I meant it to be similar to me slapping a friend in the face so they can calm down. I truly do have love for my fellow supporters, but we need a splash of cold water right now. I won't let us crumble.

[JFKDem62]

17. retro is right. Time for cold water splash nt

[840high]

67. Cold water is good.

[Nate Roberts]

90. thread title okay, but not displaying correctly when shared on Facebook

When I tried to share on Facebook the preview says "Listen up Bernie Supporters, you're losing" instead of "get a grip."

[retrowire]

92. "you're losing it" was the original title

it was too harsh because it could be taken as "you're losing" so I changed it.

[Nate Roberts]

95. ... and now it's displaying correctly on Facebook

[AmBlue]

128. Thanks, retrowire...

MUCH better! And the "get a grip" got you mentioned on Hartmann!

Rock on!

[noretreatnosurrender]

3. Yup

This is why Marcos at KOS wanted to shut down any true talk about Hillary by the 15th. They know it too.

[noamnety]

44. That popped right into my head too

when I read the OP.

I figure I have two choices.

A) Give up.

B) Make some DIY baileys, enjoy a drink, and carry on.

and much as I'd like to do option A, the gods put condensed milk on sale here ($1 a can) so I just stocked up today, and it's like the universe has decreed I pick option B.

[passiveporcupine]

58. How about a B52?

I wish I had the ingredients.

But guys, consider this. YOu are not supposed to worry about day to day changes on a 401K...You sign up for a 401K for the long haul and don't let interim lows depress you. It always comes back up.

So here we are doing the same thing with Benrie's campaign...intstead of going for the long haul (knowing the longer we stay in the more votes he gets in western and northern states)...no we panic every time there is a loss.

WELL...STOP IT.

Keep the faith. He has faith in us and we need to have faith in him.

He's not a quitter. Never has been. I've never known a fighter like him. And we have to be fighters too.

So go pin your Bernie button on your shirt, put a smile on your face, and go out and greet a few new people and convince them that the Bern is in their favor.

GOTV. Don't ever give up!

I love ginger beer though, but I can't imagine adding vodka. They often have specialty sodas at TJMaxx and Homegoods for $3.99 for a 4 pack. They have ginger beer, sarsparilla, Brownie soda, etc.

5. Thanks retro!

Sometimes we need a friendly little slap to snap us back to reality.

6. Getting ready to send him another donation now

Got my t-shirt , still waiting for my buttons, and am planning to phone bank for him on Monday!

[Peace Patriot]

84. Just did it! A nice $fat one!

[JFKDem62]

7. Spot on. nt

[restorefreedom]

8. i do think michigan messed with our heads

and the calendar looks good going forward.
if he can continue to raise money, we will be in good shape for quite a while

[Hissyspit]

9. Please change the post title!!

Try "Listen up Bernie Supporters, calm down."

[retrowire]

16. I'm sorry for the title.

I mean well, but the title is representative to the splash of cold water that we need. I don't want to change it. I truly do love my fellow supporters and I write harshly at first just to shake everyone out of it.

[Hissyspit]

19. It makes it sound like Sanders is losing.

[retrowire]

21. AHHH

I didn't think of it THAT way,....

Well then hell yes I'll change it!

[Hissyspit]

26. Thank you.

[thereismore]

10. There is one poster here who is doom and gloom all the time. Please! We knew this was the hump.

[Rebkeh]

12. Exactly

How many more states to go?

This is a marathon, not a race. Pull it together.

[Scootaloo]

13. I'm maintaining my zen

[winter is coming]

45. Is it true

that you're writing a book titiled, "Motorcycles and the Art of Zen Maintenance"?

[Scootaloo]

48. I'm so Zen I could throw a motorcycle right now.

[narnian60]

59. Hahahaha.

[choie]

14. Thank you Retro

I'm feeling pretty sick to my stomach about this and it's hard to read the gloating from the Clinton supporters on this board. That being said, your pep talk helped a great deal. It's just depressing to see that these ignorant Americans vote against everybody's - or should I say the average citizens' - best interests.

[retrowire]

30. No problem.

This is my first election and I'm learning fast the realities of how easily guided people are to vote against their best interests. I'm seeing how intentionally difficult the system makes it for people to become informed.

Politics isn't inviting enough. It's become so exclusive that it leads to people not informing themselves enough or not wanting to be involved at all.

Ignore their gloating. They'll relish in the moment, but they won't win. And even if Bernie loses.... I'm still here, and I still have the same drive and inspiration he gave me. And I'M not going away. YOU aren't going away.

We are all apart of a movement that has been started by Bernie. And whether or not it ends with Bernie, doesn't matter. It's still going to keep moving. We won't be shutting down like Occupy did. We won't be ignored any longer. We've looked into the system and have seen how deliberately it opposes us. We've seen the tricks it pulls and it doesn't even try to hide that.

We're not going anywhere.

[noamnety]

61. I don't think of Occupy as "shut down"

so much as regrouped. The younger folks are overwhelmingly for Bernie - anti-wallstreet, which tells me they are still working to depose Wall Street, just in different ways.

I'm thinking it's always the youth that are more liberal - and I don't mean that as they age they get more conservative, though that may happen a little. I mean instead that each new generation gets ideas in their head that are more to the left than their elders had at that same age. So for example we have young people in higher numbers than retirees viewing gay marriage as a norm - and pushing older people to embrace it.

I think Occupy got a whole generation talking and thinking about corporate control of our resources in a way I never seriously did when I was that same age.

What I'm getting at is long term, I'd rather have the millennials carrying us than be with the group that's supported mainly by the 50+ year olds. This isn't ageism, I'm in my 50's - it's just that win or lose this battle, I'm optimistic that our odds of getting a president who represents real people are going up, not down.

[SammyWinstonJack]

51. If there is gloating from Hillary supporters, I wouldn't know. Don't ya just love the ignore

on DU?

[choie]

60. You know, for some reason

I have never put anybody on "ignore" not sure why...but there sure are a number of Clinton supporters here who make me nauseous.

[noamnety]

64. I need to do that.

I surfed around a bit and saw some discussions on how to best pander to us tonight.

[Lizzie Poppet]

119. My Ignore list has LITERALLY quintupled...

...in the relatively short time since I un-Trashed GD: P. The vast majority of new additions are gloating, condescending Hillary acolytes.

[Cassiopeia]

15. Hear! Hear!

Hillary and her supporters will try desperately to cash in on any negativity.

It's only over if we decide it's over.

Personally I'm not ready to concede the White House to the Republicans just yet.

[retrowire]

36. Yep, and let's not give them an inch. nt

[Cassiopeia]

49. Thanks for the thread.

Even I needed to 'hear' it. Michigan got my hopes up for an earlier rebound, but you're right, it's not over and if the remaining voters that have yet to cast their ballots hear there's no point, they won't go out and vote.

I look forward to hearing from Bernie tonight. I'm sure it will be a good pep talk.

Thanks Retrowire. You're passionate and exactly what Sanders and his supporters need. You should be on the payroll.

[PWPippin]

18. Thank you, retrowire. I needed that!

[retrowire]

35. No problem!

It's time to get back to the original plan. We just got caught up in Michigan, that's all.

Have faith friend!

[davidpdx]

20. Can you point me to the research that you are talking about the rest of the way looking positive

for Sanders? I certainly thought today was going to be the turning point. There is a good chance he won't win one state today.

The big states coming up are NY, PA, and CA. Again NY and PA are one of Clinton's many home states (sarcasm implied).

[retrowire]

31. Here's something to digest.

http://downwithtyranny.blogspot.com/2016/03/clinton-will-build-her-biggest-lead-on.html#.dpuf

And it was written before Bernie's upset in Michigan.

We will be fine. This was the expected event ALL along.

[winter is coming]

50. A diary from dailykos. This is an update version of something from last month:

[erlewyne]

23. I'm with you retrowire,

Don't think I would let Bernie down do you?

This is real. Bernie is going to win.

[retrowire]

34. Nope we're not letting him down. No way. nt

[PatrynXX]

24. He's gained almost 100 delegates in the 3 states he's lost

hence she's not knocking him down enough you don't win that way..


28 OH

24 NC

50 FL



via current count on NYT

actually I think thats over 100 delegates O_O her last major hurray and he cain 100 delegates? nevermind most of America hasn't voted yet.

[retrowire]

33. Another perspective worth acknowledging. Thank you. nt

[kath]

25. Thank you! To reinforce retro's points, all of yinz need to re-read this article:

"Clinton Will Build Her Biggest Lead on March 15. Sanders Will Erode It After That"
- See more at: http://downwithtyranny.blogspot.com/2016/03/clinton-will-build-her-biggest-lead-on.html#.dpuf

And keep in mind that this written BEFORE the big win in Michigan!

[passiveporcupine]

74. Yes...read this!

What this means is simple:

Hillary Clinton will grow her lead until the March 15 states have voted.

Bernie Sanders will erase that lead — partly or completely — after March 15.

How much of Clinton's lead he will erase depends on your not buying what the media
is selling — that the contest is over.

In most scenarios where Sanders wins, he doesn't retake the lead until June 7, when five
states including California cast their ballots.

http://downwithtyranny.blogspot.com/2016/03/clinton-will-build-her-biggest-lead-on.html#.dpuf

Thank You Kath!

[kath]

80. happy to be of soivice!

[FailureToCommunicate]

28. Stay strong...

[LiberalArkie]

29. What needs to happen is a real attack on the political machine states that are left.

They short precincts that will go for Bernie. Get more people to early vote to avoid it. We had counted on anti Rahm vote around Chicago, either the machine was the reason or their was no anti-rahm vote. Too many things have been taken advantage of like the idea that it would be a fair election.

[TrueDemVA]

32. Right on!

Keep fighting for the right reasons. This is a marathon. If anything, this is a necessary fight to save the future. Let the establishment hear us. Let them grow scared. Stick together and fight for more than just primaries. We are fighting for the right things. If we quit, they win. I'm not going out like that.

[dchill]

37. Still feeling the Bern!

[liberalla]

38. Much needed reminder and refocus ~ Thanks SO MUCH for adding the proper perspective!

Yes, I remember Mar. 15 was 'hump' day and things are much better after today.
Hanging in there!

47. ;) nt

[Babel_17]

39. Get it out of our systems, this storm will pass

There's an overwhelming wave of progressive support in the states ahead. It's going to be a beautiful thing.

Ha, we're like Richard Gere's character in An Officer and a Gentleman. Louis Gossett Jr. as the D.I. is asking why we're sticking around.

Foley: Mayo, I want you D.O.R.

Mayo: No sir. You can kick me outta here, but I ain't quitting.

Foley: Get into your fatigues, Mayo. By the end of this weekend, you'll quit.

Foley: You can forget it! You're out!

Mayo: Don't you do it! Don't! You... I got nowhere else to go! I got nowhere else to g... I got nothin' else.

I'm remaining positive and sending another donation to Bernie tonight.

[farleftlib]

42. Abso - freakin - lutely

You said it, retrowire. I just donated to Bernie's campaign and I'm in it until Philadelphia!!!

Let's go get 'em. There's plenty of Bern left to go round.

Hundred million dollar lady? Not for me.

When you get worked up over these things, you can never win.
Move on, and move strong. Bernie can still win this. We just have to work harder!

[noretreatnosurrender]

53. Donations

I think we all need to make a donation to the campaign tonight so that our money bomb will also be part of the election conversation.

[democrattotheend]

54. FWIW, he just took the lead in Missouri

Not sure that will hold but it's something.

[ALittleBirdie]

55. This is a marathon that ends on July 28, 2016

In the meantime all bets are off.

Go Bernie!

In 2008 the primaries ended in early June.

[thereismore]

56. At this moment, Bernie is speaking in AZ to a roaring crowd. What are some of us doing??

We go on. We expected this. MI was great but it did not translate to OH and IL. Bernie is going on, and so am I.

62. "get a grip!" AND GET YOUR CREDIT CARD OUT ...

Bernie needs your $10 more than ever now !!!

63. The races they've called for Hillary

are tightening up, not as big a loss. Bernie has pulled ahead in Missouri and closing the gap in Illinois.

It's not over yet!!!!!!

[noretreatnosurrender]

65. Made My Donation

Just bought more Bernie gear and made another donation! Feeling the Bern!

I bought a long sleeve T shirt tonight so I would have it for NOVEMBER! I may have to go back and buy the hoodie!

[xiamiam]

66. thanks...I also needed that and I know you are correct

I don't log in very often..only on one computer and there is a reason, which is I can't be tempted to spend time arguing with a total stranger on du, or saying something snarky..or just fucking nailing whomever posts stupid stuff. I came for a hug. I so believe in bernie and his message. I've waited 40+ years to vote for someone like him even though I've never missed an election. I still believe he will win this. just hate that Ohio got called with less than 15% in. I hate that Americans vote with no friggin clue about their own interests. My next door neighbor didn't even know anything about Sanders at all..nothing, zip, nada..and then she told me she was going to vote for Clinton. She couldn't pass a history pop quiz but she gets to vote. She knows nothing about Hillary either, other than her name and that she is a woman. Thats what we've become, uneducated, ill informed, distracted and voters who vote because of name recognition.. Sorry for the rant, but I logged in to get it off my chest.

Thanks for the pep talk. I appreciate and I know you are right. While I'm at it, I'd like to thank all of the Bernie supporters for keeping the site readable and palatable. You are doing a helluva job.

[ALittleBirdie]

75. Sadly this is true.

Hugs for all of us in the same sad boat.

[retrowire]

78. ((hugs)) nt

[Maedhros]

69. If we give up now, the conservatives win.

Give them no easy wins - make them claw and scrape for every delegate. We're building a movement to try and pry the Party away from the doublethinkers that have it in their grip.

We need to make running on a corporate-friendly platform as expensive and exhausting as possible, and demonstrate that a campaign based upon integrity, people, and progressive policy has teeth.

Fight on! Concede nothing!

[Babel_17]

70. Bluto's Big Speech - Animal House

P.S. Stephen Furst, who played Flounder, went on to get a big role in Babylon 5, a JMS production. As I've posted before, JMS is supportive of Senator Sanders. https://twitter.com/straczynski/status/674833837185040385

But I'm reminded of the inspiring tale he had to tell, of a stranger who reached out to him to save his life.

Furst publicly credits J. Michael Straczynski's show "Babylon-5" with saving his life, because he is a longtime diabetic whose kidneys failed midway through the show. A fan who loved his portrayal of 'Vir' heard of his health problems and donated a kidney to save him from dialysis and a likely early demise.

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0299122/bio

Like Bluto, I'm not sure where I'm going with this, but I'm willing to say I'm not giving up on the Sanders campaign. We didn't give up "when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor", and as Stephen Furst's story shows, we live in a world with amazing people who will step to a noble purpose.

"... Greater than the death of flesh is the death of hope. The death of dreams. Against this peril we can never surrender. The future is all around us, waiting in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation ..."

http://scv.bu.edu/~aarondf/b5quotes.html

[jwirr]

72. Thank you. I for one am having a flashback to a night in 72.

But I am with you - we cannot stop the fight. Because Bernie has not stopped fighting for 40+ years. So friends ignore what I have written prior to this and lets continue.

Anyone got data on IL and MO?

[Jack Rabbit]

73. Advice for my fellow Sandernistas

If you feel the temptation to write something you will regret tonight, take the rest of the night off.

It will make for a healthier, happier progressive movement going forward.

We're going to need every one of you and I love you all.

[dflprincess]

76. Thank you. nt

79. I don't hear no fat lady singing!

I don't caucus until the 26th. Lord knows I'm not ready to throw in towel. Thank you Retrowire for the pep talk. Out of the mouths of babes. It's harder for us older folk who have lived through so many more of these disappointments to see the light. We need you youngin's to kick some sense into us. But the Bern is still in my soul, can I get a Hallelujah!!!

[Kalidurga]

82. That is because I can't carry a note...

But if I could sing I would be all like

[retrowire]

83. :) you're welcome

and thanks for the respect despite our differences in age. I respect that greatly.

[Iwillnevergiveup]

94. H-A-L-L-E-L-U-J-A!!!

Yougot it, werknotgoin2takeit!

[KauaiK]

85. No Worries - we still have CA 500+ delegates to go

Bernie is not that far behind in delegates. A California win would put him on equal footing SO LONG as there is a level playing field.

[Bangbangdem]

86. I am a grip

And I am standing by! Go, Bernie, Go!

[Barack_America]

88. Great post. You keep on.

I am 100% with you in spirit, but I really am way too busy to be posting as much here. I'm letting people IRL down. No good.

I may pop in from time to time and give y'all a K&R though!

[Peace Patriot]

91. Thanks for this thread, retrowire!

What a delight! I had to take a despair break. Had some food. Donated to Bernie. Now I'm ready for the booster rocket part of this ride!

[Dont call me Shirley]

93. Thank you, retro...

[PowerToThePeople]

96. Deep breaths.

I am taking them.

Thanks.

[johnnyrocket]

98. yea, but he has to CLEAN UP, +10 points or more to catch up.

It'll be a good run, but a big long shot.

[electronlove]

99. A grip on the future !

Hey. On a positive, there are still >80,000 votes not reported for Illinois. Right ! Many of those should go to Sanders so it could be a photo-finish !

[retrowire]

100. yep. nt

[Little_Wing]

101. Can't wait to vote for Bernie in CALIFORNIA!

They will have to pry my ballot out of my cold, dead hands! LOL

Thank you Retrowire!

[retrowire]

105. You're welcome! And thank you! nt

[mountain grammy]

102. I just got home from my county assembly

Bernie delegates from the caucuses outnumbered Hillary supporters 2 to 1. Colorado went big for Bernie. I'm in it to win it!

[hbhall]

103. The greater good

This is my first and maybe only post, although I've been reading this site for years. Listen, look at the big picture. If you think that the money people and the movers and shakers are not concerned about what they've seen Bernie accomplish, you are greatly deceived. We are out here and in significant numbers and we will remain out here. The planet is in trouble, our system is in trouble, and we want to do it with a vote and not a gun. Cheer up. We are firing a shot across the bow of the corporatist's ship. We may not see the results in our lifetime but the groundwork is being laid for your kids and their kids. Look at the Bull Moose party! Despite dividing the GOP and allowing Wilson to win, every tenet of the Bull Moose party became law within 25 years; women's right to vote, abolishment of child labor, labors right to organize, and establishment of a social security system. I'm 63. I don't think I'll live to see the changes we need, but you can't give up on the hope of wanting it, wishing for it. And lets hope we get a chance to do it at the ballot box, as opposed to an environmental disaster that will force it. Cheers everybody. I want Bernie. But I'll vote for Hillary and she will destroy the Donald.

[Paka]

104. Thanks for that little boost.

At 75 years of age this is my last chance to vote for someone the likes of Bernie. An opportunity like this only comes along once in a lifetime, so I damned well have to remain optimistic. We have to keep fighting.

[retrowire]

106. You're welcome.

Bernie's the only reason I ever got involved in politics.

[Hiraeth]

107. when the going gets tough, the tough get going. we are so GOING. Bern. Baby. Bern.

[FreedomRain]

108. Hillary had a good night

Congratulate her people, and look forward to some fine wins ahead!

[retrowire]

109. Hillary isnt our mission here

This is the Bernie group and that's who we're focused on here.

[FighttheFuture]

121. She had a night where she wasn't totally embarrassed, like Michigan. Illinois was not a

good win for her, her birth state, where the Mayor is a friend and was Obama's chief of Staff and she was way ahead only a few weeks earlier.

[cosmicone]

110. If Bernie wins CA, NJ and NY by 86-14

he will be the nominee.

Yayyyyyyyyyyyy!!!

[retrowire]

111. why would you, a hillary supporter be happy about that?

oh yeah... you wouldn't...

so, go enjoy your victory tonight please.

there are more states than that just so you know.... remember how Obama won? Hillary won California and new York then... still lost.

battles not over. just enjoy your night for now.

[Kittycat]

112. Why are you trolling a protected group!

Are you that desperate for attention? I can assure you, this isn't winning.

[kath]

115. That's a particularly nasty one - hoping it gets another one of its multiple vacations soon.

[Waiting For Everyman]

113. K&R Excellent post!

And a good night to donate!

[Rockyj]

114. THANK YOU SLAP SLAP ON MY FACE...

I needed that! Its just that I know in my heart I could NEVER MORALLY support & ANY Clinton!

[Betty Karlson]

118. I'm getting this grip alright.

Gripping ever tighter.

[FighttheFuture]

120. Hillary only added 57 delegates to her lead, and States better for Bernie are coming up!!!

Keep that in mind, it was no big win for the Candidate that was supposed to march to a "coronation" who was supposed to be so far ahead in Illinois. Keep the message going, and shame the media for their virtual blackout of Bernie.

[LongTomH]

122. We need to keep working: Phone bank, canvass, donate

If your state has an active campaign - canvass door to door.

If your state has already voted, you can still make phone calls for Bernie - Enter: MAKE PHONE CALLS CALLS FOR BERNIE into your Google window. There are various options and dialers available.

Bernie CAN WIN, if we work hard enough.

[MynameisBlarney]

123. Hold the phone there, Jackson...

How dare you inject reality into this!?!?!

Seriously though. Thanks.

[billhicks76]

124. Ignore Clintonites

Their candidate just got caught hugging Bush again and giggling while doing it. I guess hundreds of thousands of deaths haven't affected either one in their ivory towers.

125. Don't stop, keep up the pressure......

I 100% agree with this, it was already stated that this would more than likely be the case.
Everything now depends on what Bernie's supporters do.
Don't accept the fact that's over - because it isn't, you never know what will happen in this race.
You must follow your head and your heart, don't settle for less.
You must vote your conscious.
My generation got us out of Vietnam because we didn't give in to the establishment.
I'm 70 years old and have lived through watching the Clintons rise to where they are today.
I was advised by a friend when HRC ran against Obama to read, read, read about the Clintons - I did and as a result I can never ever vote in good conscious for her.
Keep faith in your own judgment.

129. I'm so proud of you retrowire.

You and yours are in charge of the future. Keep on keeping on.

Go Bernie.
