The person you're replying to said "Bernie or Busters" Tarc Jun 2017 #16

You be wrong. KPN Jun 2017 #21

Could you possibly be wrong? I don't think that word means what you think it means. Tarheel_Dem Jun 2017 #104

I thought Bust meant not voting for Hillary in the GE? BainsBane Jun 2017 #107

Likewise, not all of the "Bernie or Bust" are deranged gunmen either. nt Gore1FL Jun 2017 #74

He was GOP and you said "Even republicans wanted to vote for Sanders" bettyellen Jun 2017 #26

This was to prove that republicans would have voted for Sanders... Trial_By_Fire Jun 2017 #30

Prove by directly using this man as an example. Very poor example. bettyellen Jun 2017 #38

Look. You're the one who thought it would be genius to use this guy as an example n/t kcr Jun 2017 #53

Nope- I literally responded to you using him as an example. bettyellen Jun 2017 #55

I meant to respond to trial by fire kcr Jun 2017 #63
