its just business.

(36,063 posts)Granted Al Gore had been a chair of the DLC and not long after 2000 Lieberman crossed over to the R's. Both of which suggest the DNC on 2000 was further to the right than progressives would want.

(58,785 posts)judgement of some posters into strong question.
Hillary Clinton was way out ahead from the beginning. Those who believed the media's "close horse race" styling were fooled into thinking the end was not implicit in the beginning; and of course some people fooled themselves about her opponents' chances because they wanted one of them to win, but not clear-eyed observers.
HERE'S A BIG TIP FOR FUTURE RACES: CANDIDATES WITH STRONG LEADS DO NOT CHEAT. They just keep doing what's working for them.
CHEATING TACTICS ARE FOR LOSING CANDIDATES. That's because they're very dangerous and thus desperation moves.
And, btw, we knew from the very beginning that 90% of Bernie's followers were happy to have Hillary as their second choice. Now that that 90%have moved happily enough to back Hillary, these dishonest charges would get a lot more sympathy on almost any other forum.

(58,785 posts)in this forum and would never have answered if I had. I do respect this as a safe place. Autumn wrote and told me I misunderstood the thread itself on top of everything else. I don't come here and won't read up to find out where I went wrong, but I'm prepared to believe I misunderstood completely.
And I apologize to the poster who got a hide for inadvertently setting up that situation.
Peace, and let's get the Senate and as much of the House as possible. Why not the whole thing?!
