Clinton on Colbert tonight

[dflprincess]

Sounding a lot like Bernie. I imagine her Wall Street pals get a bang out of the people she's fooling with this act.

2. Now the goal is...

To just silence voices they don't like.

And they even come into a protected group to do it.

6. Yep - they're trying to push us out.

But, that's OK. If they succeed, I can tell you Reddit has more activist links and less kvetching.

They saw the Iowa poll and, instead of getting sad or mad, they started planning. Of course, it later turned out the methodology on those polls was trash, but it that didn't stop them from brainstorming about how to get people - Millennials, in particular - out to the polls.

GD-P looks like a soap opera these days.

7. Well, I guess it's time to go alert on every single post in the HRC group.

(No, I'm not actually suggesting that)

Please alert on the email containing the jury results. That abuse of the jury system should go to the admins.

9. FFS, are you KIDDING?

They’re coming here and alerting? Why don’t they go away to their nice cave and just badmouth us like they usually do?

If they’re so sure their candidate is going to win why are they so fucking touchy?

10. Because Clinton supporters never attack Bernie

I notice they also seem to enjoy alerting on people who have been around here for a long time.

I don't recall being alerted on before - I suppose I better start keeping track if something this banal can upset some people.

5. Well, today's meme is Bernie is sexist.

Also, he cannot possibly champion women's rights because he is not a woman.

Guess what? And I am saying this as a woman.

Bernie is not sexist. And even if he were - that is no fucking reason to vote for Hillary Clinton. That's ridiculous.

I must have missed the carve-outs for women (and children) to not be hurt by war, fracking, Wall Street greed, cluster bombs, etc.

8. Well she certainly isn't fooling me. I just had a thought about Hillary's co-opting of Bernie's....

positions. It makes me wonder why Hillary, whose campaign is apparently going so well, who's way up in the polls, who's gotten all the establishment endorsements, feels the need to borrow from Bernie's campaign platform. Methinks that her internal pollsters are seeing trouble ahead for her and things aren't so rosy for her campaign as the corporate media and polls would have you believe. It just doesn't make sense to me. If your campaign is going so well, why would you need to co-opt someone else's ideas? You could argue this is a way to move uncommitted Bernie supporters to her, but why would she need to if she is so dominant in the polls? Stay tuned folks, this campaign is getting very interesting...
