The new General Election DU (Calm down. Just a little levity)

" Hillary is wonderful."

"Yes. She's great. "

"I said wonderful, dammit!"

"No...She's Great! What's wrong with you?"

"Show me a link!"

"You're no Democrat! All real Democrats know she is Great!"

"You're a troll! That's a good way to ensure that Trump will win."

................................................."You're both full of shit. She's Fabulous."


Kidding!

Not a good sign.

In a larger context, fewer people are voting. Democracy is very ill and it's not Bernie's fault.

And you also know DU always switches into GE mode when there's a presumptive nominee.

You also know that GE mode is not as intellectually sterile as Armstead's funny as hell satire.

Just a simple observation.

I understand our newer members may don't know DU's history. So they may think primary wars and switch to GE mode this is something new and cataclysmic.

However it isn't anything new, as you well know.

So I think it is a little early to write DU post-mortem.

Agree of course w low voter turn out and so glad Sanders ran and will keep fighting.

Thanks for the laugh, Armastead.
Of late, I don't get enough of them.
