Shows you BS is all BS.... Historic NY Apr 2017 #1
re: "as if that means they shouldn't be reached out to by Democrats" thesquanderer Apr 2017 #3
Thanks for your thoughtful response. elleng Apr 2017 #5
What is this word salad? murielm99 Apr 2017 #6
One person's "word salad" is another's "thoughtful response." And so it goes. (n/t) thesquanderer Apr 2017 #11
Crib note version BainsBane Apr 2017 #15
I thought the Sanders supporters murielm99 Apr 2017 #24
Side note: Sanders supporters are not monolithic. (n/t) thesquanderer Apr 2017 #40
As opposed to Clinton supporters? BainsBane Apr 2017 #43
Of course Clinton supporters aren't monolithic either. thesquanderer Apr 2017 #45
That was your own post. nt BainsBane Apr 2017 #68
No, my post #40 was a reply to murielm99's post #24. thesquanderer Apr 2017 #69
But - we are supposed to welcome them into the Party JustAnotherGen Apr 2017 #79
It makes sense for Hillary to turn hers over bc she's a Uniter.. Cha Apr 2017 #108
Sanders' list may be politically problematic in that Hortensis Apr 2017 #27
As long as Bernie is refusing to support the party, he is reducing the chances pnwmom Apr 2017 #38
Most computerized lists have a merge/purge feature FakeNoose Apr 2017 #93
It makes all the sense in the world. pangaia Apr 2017 #51
This response does not make any sense Gothmog Apr 2017 #7
re: "I really have no idea what point you are attempting to make" thesquanderer Apr 2017 #10
Again, your posts is sad and does not make sense to anyone who is a member of the Democratic Party Gothmog Apr 2017 #18
I never said it was wrong of Clinton to do what she did, or anything like that. thesquanderer Apr 2017 #46
I am am member of the Democratic Party, and the post does very well make sense to me. pangaia Apr 2017 #52
Really-So supporting the Democratic Party is optional? Gothmog Apr 2017 #59
If you are trying to support the Democratic party (not a candidate) HoneyBadger Apr 2017 #54
I support all of the candidates in the Democratic party including down ballot candidate Gothmog Apr 2017 #60
Then they have the right...... SergeStorms Apr 2017 #70
Some feel more strongly about opt-in vs. opt-out than you do... thesquanderer Apr 2017 #71
Strongly agree and was just posting the same message. ATL Ebony Apr 2017 #72
So you showed similar dismay when OFA didn't release it's list until 2015 progressoid Apr 2017 #22
Really? I was solicit by the DNC and OFA during the 2014 cycle Gothmog Apr 2017 #23
Shhhhh....you're disrupting Two Minutes Hate. n/t QC Apr 2017 #26
Why are you so sensitive? Gothmog Apr 2017 #61
Don't you think it's important to learn from past mistakes? Our party would be stronger today pnwmom Apr 2017 #35
Really? It was pretty clear to me - - ColemanMaskell Apr 2017 #32
Funny he didn't say that BainsBane Apr 2017 #44
That is an anecdotal response HoneyBadger Apr 2017 #53
We have been told ad nauseum here brer cat Apr 2017 #31
I agree with your analysis Gothmog Apr 2017 #62
Agree 100 percent Justice Apr 2017 #65
Not what I was saying. Please see my post #71. thesquanderer Apr 2017 #84
Yep, that explains a lot. brer cat Apr 2017 #95
I signed up and contributed to Hillary Clinton, and did NOT do so for Sanders... George II Apr 2017 #34
I'd forgotten about the Sanders emails! NastyRiffraff Apr 2017 #47
I didn't opt out because I wanted to see just how many I'd get until the campaign was over.... George II Apr 2017 #50
So your claim breaks down to the concept that Sandersmay want to be run as a third party later Gothmog Apr 2017 #76
I never said anything like that. And it doesn't even make any sense! thesquanderer Apr 2017 #83
I supported Tom Perez and I have no trouble with Perez reaching out Gothmog Apr 2017 #9
This was the right thing to do Gothmog Apr 2017 #2
Yes, but not always so simple, see my post #3 thesquanderer Apr 2017 #4
It is a poorly written post that makes little sense to me Gothmog Apr 2017 #8
Yes shenmue Apr 2017 #14
Agree. This was a big of-course, zero surprise. Hortensis Apr 2017 #28
Just confirms what we knew last year. Hillary is the better person. nt William769 Apr 2017 #12
Yes shenmue Apr 2017 #13
and committed to strengthening the Democratic Party. BainsBane Apr 2017 #16
That is clear Gothmog Apr 2017 #19
Well said William769 and a big Thank You to Hillary. riversedge Apr 2017 #36
Hillary supports the Democratic Party, and Democrats NastyRiffraff Apr 2017 #48
Obama didn't give his full list to the DNC until 2015. progressoid Apr 2017 #17
Which is one reason the party structure deteriorated during his tenure. That was unfortunate. n/t pnwmom Apr 2017 #20
Indeed. progressoid Apr 2017 #29
That was quite obviously a mistake BainsBane Apr 2017 #21
It was. progressoid Apr 2017 #25
Bernie and Barack have different goals, different motivations, Hortensis Apr 2017 #30
I'm not holding him to a higher standard. I wanted Obama to do this, too, and think the party pnwmom Apr 2017 #33
He isn't held to a higher standard BainsBane Apr 2017 #39
Are you sure of all that? George II Apr 2017 #37
It's cited in the Huffpo link from pnwmom's post above. progressoid Apr 2017 #41
"Cited" from unnamed sources and at least one unnamed "Clinton ally".... George II Apr 2017 #42
OOPS. beam me up scottie Apr 2017 #55
So? Not the subject of course, but since you bring it up...... George II Apr 2017 #56
I just thought for fairness sake, we should also point out that a candidate holding onto his mailing progressoid Apr 2017 #67
That was also wrong Justice Apr 2017 #66
How to sign up for DNC emails: klook Apr 2017 #49
I think it is possible that it is better to let Bernie control his list karynnj Apr 2017 #57
If Bernie became a Democrat and gave a full-throated speech on the need for all progressives pnwmom Apr 2017 #58
Why? Gothmog Apr 2017 #63
I know it made sense when Kerry used his list that way karynnj Apr 2017 #64
Something you have in common with Kerry: Nuance. ;-) (n/t) thesquanderer Apr 2017 #73
Thank you for what I will take as a compliment karynnj Apr 2017 #74
Yes, it should be taken as a compliment! (n/t) thesquanderer Apr 2017 #81
Kerry never threatened to form third party Gothmog Apr 2017 #75
Is this because you want Sanders to be able to do a third party later? Gothmog Apr 2017 #77
No - of course not karynnj Apr 2017 #78
That is the only explanation that makes sense Gothmog Apr 2017 #80
I do not read JPR and have no reason to thing my Senator does either karynnj Apr 2017 #85
Do you approve of the concept of Sanders preserving his right to run as a third party candidate Gothmog Apr 2017 #87
Sanders has NOT spoken of running for President third party karynnj Apr 2017 #88
Sanders got far less than that percentage of the vote Gothmog Apr 2017 #90
I meant to write delegates, not vote karynnj Apr 2017 #91
I strongly disagree with your analysis Gothmog Apr 2017 #92
I strongly disagree with your analysis karynnj Apr 2017 #94
Your math is totally wrong-I was talking about lead in pledged delegates Gothmog Apr 2017 #99
California was in June long after super Tuesday karynnj Apr 2017 #109
Do you tire of being wrong? Gothmog Apr 2017 #110
You are the one that is wrong karynnj Apr 2017 #111
Again, you are wrong Gothmog Apr 2017 #112
I understand both the political process and the math ... and I understand ... English karynnj Apr 2017 #116
I actually attended the Texas state conventions in both 2008 and 2016 Gothmog Apr 2017 #118
That list is the only leverage that Sanders has left. lapucelle Apr 2017 #82
CLINTON was not able to lead enough voters to the polls karynnj Apr 2017 #89
Clinton's coalition made it to the polls. lapucelle Apr 2017 #96
So, the OFA list was adequate for victory and the Sanders list overrated, but it is Sander's fault karynnj Apr 2017 #98
That's not what said, and you're missing my point lapucelle Apr 2017 #101
Bill Clinton himself blamed Kerry claiming that he was a war hero who did not fight back karynnj Apr 2017 #102
Actually Clinton blames Rove and his tactics for the loss lapucelle Apr 2017 #103
Sander's list was overrated? murielm99 Apr 2017 #105
K&R Jamaal510 Apr 2017 #86
Good of Hillary to assist the DNC. This is needed especially at the local levels. Sunlei Apr 2017 #97
From the article cited in the OP Gothmog Apr 2017 #100
Normal procedure. But if it bothers you, never give your congressman your information liberal N proud Apr 2017 #104
Why do you think it bothers me? Everyone should do it because we all have the same interest pnwmom Apr 2017 #107
It's Clear.. Hillary cares deeply about our Planet.. she Cha Apr 2017 #106
Hillary didn't turn her email list over in 2008. Nobody whinged then Arazi Apr 2017 #113
Supposedly by running as a Democrat Bernie would widen the party. pnwmom Apr 2017 #114
Independents now make up 40%+ of the electorate. Millennials are the largest group now too Arazi Apr 2017 #115
Agreed Egnever Apr 2017 #117
