One. That is with approximately 90 % of active users in this forum being Sanders supporters. There are a number of pro-Clinton ops.

Sanders supporters, overall, stopped supporting him a while back. It's simply Clinton opposition at this point.

It's over.

[geek tragedy]

1. A lot of people are members of the Not Hillary party

who latched onto Sanders as the best vehicle for their agenda. In 15 days they will have to go to one of the many Not Hillary partisan websites out there.

[BainsBane]

3. Yes, the continual references to 2008

make that clear.

[roguevalley]

42. this op makes me laugh. LOUDLY!

[B Calm]

47. Totally agree, here I thought hypocrisy was a republican trait.

Boy was I wrong!

[Dem2]

45. What else is new?

The internet has given the ne'erdowell malcontents a place to vent. It's all fun and games until election season.

[obamanut2012]

2. I said that to someone a while ago

GDP isn't necessarily pro-Sanders, it's anti-HRC, which is very, very telling to me.

[YouDig]

7. It seems to be anti-everyone except Sanders and Cornel West.

[riversedge]

28. It gives me pause when I see it spelled out like you did.

[beachbum bob]

4. easier for many to be against something than stand for something

[DemocratSinceBirth]

5. Proverbs 6 16-19

There are six things that the Lord hates,
seven that are an abomination to him:
haughty eyes, a lying tongue,
and hands that shed innocent blood,
a heart that devises wicked plans,
feet that make haste to run to evil,
a false witness who breathes out lies,
and one who sows discord among brothers.

[Broward]

6. Great work. The corporate elite can breathe a big sigh of relief.

[grossproffit]

8. OLIGARCHS! BILLIONAIRES! WALL STREET!

[Broward]

19. That's your team.

[NCTraveler]

10. They stopped supporting Sanders message a while back.

I guess the people here really didn't think his message resonated. You think they gave up promoting him and went to strictly attacking Clinton to keep the corporate overlords happy. Nah. That makes zero sense.

[GreatGazoo]

9. What is "it" ?

[NCTraveler]

11. The nomination process and any true support for Sanders. Nt

[GreatGazoo]

18. you reached that conclusion based on GD-P ?

Your sample size is a bit small and skewed don't you think.

In the real world, California is 46% to 44% with a 6% MOE

[NCTraveler]

21. I reached my conclusion on the nomination by focusing on reality.

Not GD. P. The part about the lack of support for Sanders was about GD. P.

Cali won't even come close to closing the gap. The gap might even expand as you highlighted.

[mythology]

32. A more recent poll showed a 13% edge for Clinton

But even if he wins 60% to 40%, it won't change the end result of the primaries.

[grossproffit]

34. Switzerland hasn't voted yet. BS will surely turn things around once they do.

[upaloopa]

53. Don't forget Denmark where everyone is happy with all the free stuff they get

[grossproffit]

33. Latest poll: California Clinton 51 Sanders 38 Clinton +13

[woodsprite]

12. I haven't stopped supporting him

It's just that DU is a rather hostile place right now. It's not worth the energy or high BP trying to reason with some people, so I've been reading some and putting my efforts into phone banking and donations.

[NCTraveler]

14. Truly awesome on your part.

[SidDithers]

13. DU rec...

Sid

[Surya Gayatri]

15. Thanks for posting. Excellent news...

[Armstead]

16. Just for you...

[NCTraveler]

17. I have a lot of respect for DvD.

Great spokesperson for Sanders.

[quickesst]

20. Absolutely true

They know it's over for Bernie and they're doing everything they can..... in a roundabout way, to get der trumpenfuhrer elected. Disgusting.

[betsuni]

22. K&R

[Jokerman]

23. Yes, one DU forum is a perfect representation of the real world.

[NCTraveler]

24. Millions of votes and hundreds of delegates.

That is the representation from the real world.

The lack of support for Sanders is highlighted in the forum here.

[senz]

49. 60,000 voters in Oakland, CA beg to differ.

DU is not "the whole wide world," NCTraveler.

[NCTraveler]

52. When did Cali vote? nt.

[nc4bo]

25. Don't fall for daily Eeyore. They bray

It's what they do.

[Bonobo]

26. Indeed so why still so much Sanders bashing? nt

[LWolf]

27. I'll fix that for you.

I wasn't going to, but now I feel the call.

[Betty Karlson]

29. Shortsighted arrogance, I call that.

You tell them that their opinions aren't welcome, then deride their opinions as "over" because they take the hint and take their supportive articles elsewhere.

It's people like you who will be responsible if the Democratic Ticket goes down in November.

[NCTraveler]

43. "It's people like you who will be responsible if the Democratic Ticket goes down in November."

I will take all of the blame. My arrogance will allow nothing short of that. Thank you kindly. Glad we got the blame game out of the way for you. I accept all responsibility.

[Trust Buster]

30. Yes, when people change from posting positive threads about their candidate to exclusively

posting hateful threads about his opponent, it tells you everything you need to know.

[Jester Messiah]

31. Congrats to Brock and his shill army for a successful swarming tactic. n/t

[ucrdem]

35. Please show any evidence that Brock's PAC is placing messages in DU or KOS.

The press release said Facebook and Twitter.

[Jester Messiah]

41. If you can't already see it, then there's nothing I can show you that would convince you.

It's like you're asking for evidence that the sky is blue. Just fucking look at it.

[NCTraveler]

37. So Brock stops Sanders supporters from posting...

Positive messages on DU?

[k8conant]

36. Turn out the lights. The Party's over.

Have fun in the dark with a dead Party.

[Broward]

38. The Party's not over, just changing.

Hillary and her minions are now in league with the Robert Kagans, Henry Kissingers and Lloyd Blankfeins of the world. It's a partnership of warmongers, corporatists and their useful idiots.

[k8conant]

39. That's over to me.

Next comes the coup de grace.

[bunnies]

44. A large amount of Sanders supporters have left the site.

Its not exactly a mystery.

[senz]

46. Well you wanted her to be the front runner, didn't you? Front runner gets attention.

Live with it.

[SheenaR]

48. Not to beat a dead horse

but for months we asked (actually begged) Clinton supporters to offer issues based OPs as to why HRC should be the nom and were stonewalled and given day after day of anti-Bernie posts.

Shoe is on the other foot indeed. Not denying the anti-Clinton posts. But lest we forget that many of us wanted issues based disagreements and got nothing in return.

Let's just be honest about it. Neither side has been particularly pristine here this cycle. And there are several 15+ hide authors on one side to prove it.

[ProgressiveEconomist]

50. Only the calm

before the storm.

There are still two weeks before attacks on HRC no longer will be tolerated. As we get closer and closer to Skinner's deadline, GD-P is bound to become crazier and crazier. Fearing that their prized ideas for rehashing old attacks on Hillary will be scrubbed, BoB lunatics will go manic in posting and kicking them, regardless how little sense they make. On the day of the deadline, "Message deleted" will become the most popular post. Then the BoB crowd will have to find other websites to spam.

[aikoaiko]

51. And what are we to make of zero positive HRC OPs?

:rofl

[bkkyosemite]

54. "Sanders supporters, overall, stopped supporting him a while back. It's simply Clinton

opposition at this point." Where do you get your information from a crystal ball. Not a true statement.

[DisgustipatedinCA]

55. No. Some of us have learned to sit back and watch.
