I have a suggestion for the Hillary Group.

[William769]

I think we have come to that time in the Primary that we know Hillary is on her way to securing the Democratic nomination for President of the United States.

Why don't we put the Primary behind us and focus on the General Election?

That way we will be ready when the inevitable happens. The primary & all the bullshit we had to endure will just be a footnote in history & since we will not be dealing with the bullshit in the primary, we will see the hides going away.

Bernie had his 15 minutes in the spotlight & brought some ideas to the table but now, I'm ready to move on.

What say you all?

[Coolest Ranger]

1. I agree with you and support that

[Agnosticsherbet]

2. If I trash GD-P, half my feed disappears.

We may consider it over, but I don't think it can be completely ignored.
I have altered most of my comments away from the ugly stuff, but it has a habit of intruding.

[William769]

4. Was only a suggestion.

I may read GDP for comedy, but that's about it for me.

[yallerdawg]

6. Bill!

Come on.

We know that's how it starts out...and then...

[Agnosticsherbet]

7. Comedy? Perhaps I am reading it wrong.

[yallerdawg]

3. Sounds good!

Time to positively support Hillary and bash us some/all Republicans!

This doesn't apply to GD-P, does it?

[William769]

5. Thats up to you.

I was just referring to our Group here.

[bravenak]

8. Yay!!!

That's what I wanna do too!!!

[William769]

9. It always takes the adults at the table to make the right decision.

[bravenak]

10. And that's US! The adults. Not them.

[William769]

11. ...

[littlebit]

16. This post was

just alerted on.

[William769]

21. Just reinforces who the adults are.

Thanks.

[littlebit]

22. The jury was

7--0 to leave it.

[William769]

24. Thanks.

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Another childish insult to Bernie supporters on DU from a returning troll.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Fri Mar 18, 2016, 12:50 PM, and the Jury voted 0-7 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: If this was any other poster than Bravenak, there would not be an alert. Give it a rest people. The only person I agree with most of the time is myself.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I haven't the foggiest idea why the hell this was alerted on.

what is wrong with you that you needed to alert on this post.

GET. A. LIFE.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Seems fine to me. Alerter claims poster is a troll. That should be an alert in itself; there is no evidence presented that poster is a troll. Also undermining valued members of this site by stalk-alerting undermines alerters supposition objectivity.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Seriously?? If you don't like it stay out of the Hillary forum.
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Grow a thicker skin and quit looking for insults.

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.

[William769]

25. Gotta love that jury.

They get it.

Thanks for posting the results.

[Loki]

28. I hope that whoever was on that jury

will use the "alert abuse" tab. Please protect our site from this.

[brer cat]

32. The alerter needs to lose the privilege

permanently not just for today. That was purely an alert on the name not the post.

[riversedge]

38. Lordy lordy. Someone actually alerted on a mild suggestion WHOOOT!

[Treant]

12. It's about time

At over +300 delegates, this is a done deal (unless some cracks start to show, which I doubt).

The difficulty is that we're not exactly sure who the Republican is going to be yet. If you made me put money on it, I'd say Trump...but there's always a chance that the R convention is uglier than any of us could possibly imagine.

[William769]

15. here's an example.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/110777309

There is news out there. Doesn't matter who their nominee is, we'll trounce any of them.

[Treant]

17. Oh, well, yeah, but...

if corndog lady says it, who am I to disagree?

[William769]

19. LOL!

[mcar]

13. Makes sense to me

What is the point of continuing to engage on the primary level?

[hrmjustin]

14. I think this is a good idea for this group. Sanders time is up and I think by April 26th he...

... is done.

[Rose Siding]

18. It will be a footnote. But like Bill Clinton likes to say...

When your opponent is sinking, toss him an anchor.

There could be lots of incoming ugliness from the Sanders campaign. Are we to not post about that in this group? There will be lots of stuff about upcoming primaries/caucuses. I just hate gdp too much to only talk about it there. You're the boss. That's just how I see it.

[William769]

20. It's only a suggestion, not a mandate.

It's my personal belief that it would be better for the Group. Nothing more, nothing less.

[JohnnyLib2]

26. Sounds good, I'm in.

[Stand and Fight]

27. No offense, but I think that's counting our eggs before they hatch.

As long as Sanders is in the race, I'm going to pay attention to it. I see acting as if the primary is over is a state of denial and serves no purpose. I won't be joining you guys in that, but I wish you the best. I've learned too often over the course of challenging life to keep an eye on the big picture -- the WHOLE picture.

[Walk away]

29. I'm not ready yet. I'm sure I'll come around.

It won't be easy coming to DU and reading hundreds of over the top attacks on Hillary by Bernie supporters and say nothing. Just post about Trump when we don't even know if he will be the candidate that the republicans run.

But I'm sure I'll fall in with the rest of the group but I've been unjustly locked out for a long time.

[Loki]

30. Thank you William for the suggestion.

I think we can do both. Ignoring him is not an option right now and ignoring those who continue to stalk and alert our members is not going to happen as long as I can still type. I am very worried about what is happening in Trump world, but know that Hillary can take him down easily once we get to that time. Mr. Sander's has trouble dealing with personal challenges, she is a pro at handling the republicans and could do it with one hand tied behind her back. We will keep our eyes and ears open until this is completely decided or until Skinner brings the hammer down.

[leftofcool]

31. I am ready!

[brer cat]

33. I'm with you, Bill.

It is past time to put the BS supporters in our rear view mirror and concentrate on what is important. Childish temper tantrums only divert our attention.

[Sancho]

34. I agree...it's time to GOTV for the first woman President!

[riversedge]

37. Two weeks before April 7 --I will be

quite busy canvassing for Hillary and Russ Feingold here in WI.

[ismnotwasm]

35. That sounds really good Bill

I'm not antagonistic-- by nature anyway--towards other Democrats, but I am to Trump republicans and their ilk

[Squinch]

36. Excellent! It really is silly to waste energy arguing about the primary any more.
