Highlight:

Simple solution Skinner, a POLL, should Skinner "Call It"??? [View all] Logical Apr 2016 OP

I don't know what this means. oldandhappy Apr 2016 #1

The poster is asking if Skinner should declare Hillary the presumptive nominee StevieM Apr 2016 #9

But what does THAT mean, exactly? Smarmie Doofus Apr 2016 #11

The one week countdown refers to a period that begins right after StevieM Apr 2016 #24

It means a large number of people will leave or be thrown off DU. greymouse Apr 2016 #45

Not really Andy823 Apr 2016 #94

greymouse, it doesn't look like you were here in 2008. kstewart33 Apr 2016 #106

It means DU Hillary supporters are looking for the purge to happen and get the TransitJohn Apr 2016 #118

But they seem to comprise about a 1/4 of the board? Smarmie Doofus Apr 2016 #122

More like about 1/10th. John Poet Apr 2016 #123

And who knows how many remaining after the $1 million runs out. GoneFishin Apr 2016 #129

It means that 17% of DU wants to purge the remaining 83%. Good luck with that one . . . nt leveymg Apr 2016 #153

There isn't going to be a purge. It simply means that one week after we have StevieM Apr 2016 #157

It means party unity philosslayer Apr 2016 #149

That's pretty vague. Intentionally so? Smarmie Doofus Apr 2016 #156

This is the Democratic Underground philosslayer Apr 2016 #158

I asked three relatively simple questions. Smarmie Doofus Apr 2016 #159

ok I'll play Matt_R Apr 2016 #162

Really ? oldandhappy Apr 2016 #12

You are misunderstanding what I am saying. StevieM Apr 2016 #20

OK Makes sense. oldandhappy Apr 2016 #23

with 10 states yet to vote that would be against everything DU stands for PatrynXX Apr 2016 #26

I agree. Skinner shouldn't--and won't--"call it" until the voting is over. StevieM Apr 2016 #34

I do not have to rally behind a candidate that I do not believe in RoccoR5955 Apr 2016 #79

You bet. kstewart33 Apr 2016 #107

And, fwiw, after a GREAT many Bernie supporters have been driven out of DU. snot Apr 2016 #2

well hard to scare me away PatrynXX Apr 2016 #29

yes but as an alternative - commondreams.org will take you Unicorn Apr 2016 #59

Have you checked this out? jackpineradicals.org n/t RKP5637 Apr 2016 #78

I'm there. snot Apr 2016 #144

I'll be coming over too, just haven't done it yet. n/t RKP5637 Apr 2016 #146

I've posted there a few times, I was pointed it out, I think the day I got here. Unicorn Apr 2016 #154

You decide. kstewart33 Apr 2016 #108

It's not so much following the rules Gore1FL Apr 2016 #126

Won't make the least difference one way or another. ucrdem Apr 2016 #3

Two out of three seems likely. Chan790 Apr 2016 #4

seems a bit premature nt cloudythescribbler Apr 2016 #7

I find it hard to believe that Hillary will be a worse president than StevieM Apr 2016 #14

Hopefuly she'd suck less than W. That's a very low bar... think Apr 2016 #27

At least Hillary is getting off her ass and raising money for downticket Dems. MADem Apr 2016 #31

Is she? Scootaloo Apr 2016 #41

No, it isn't. The bulk of the dough raised at those shindigs go to the PARTY, not the headliner. MADem Apr 2016 #60

Who oversees distribution? Scootaloo Apr 2016 #62

The Party. The headliner gets a cut, the headliner does not control the cash at all. nt MADem Apr 2016 #63

So is NPR just full of shit, then? Scootaloo Apr 2016 #64

You weren't talking about the HVF--you were talking about the DNC agreed-upon fundraisers. MADem Apr 2016 #66

It looks as though I were confusing two separate things, then Scootaloo Apr 2016 #119

Corporate money Carolina Apr 2016 #48

For winners of the primary contests, so they can compete in the general election. MADem Apr 2016 #58

So let me remind you of Carolina Apr 2016 #61

Nope. When Lamont won the primary the Clintons switched their support to him. StevieM Apr 2016 #115

I like Bernie, voted for him, but I agree with you on Hillary. The US could RKP5637 Apr 2016 #84

Well if she ignores the Convention in July maybe PatrynXX Apr 2016 #33

I don't see her getting elected once let alone twice. nt artislife Apr 2016 #36

She doesn't need to win for the internet to hate her for even one day...let alone 8 years. Chan790 Apr 2016 #39

Kasich? talk about the road less travelled. How will he machete out his path to victory? Hiraeth Apr 2016 #88

No idea. Chan790 Apr 2016 #91

gotta admit - shit just got really interesting. in a hopeless sorta way but, interesting nonetheless Hiraeth Apr 2016 #92

Let me explain how your theory will play out in real life. StevieM Apr 2016 #121

Oh Stevie. Chan790 Apr 2016 #148

Well, back in 2008 I was also told that I should be ashamed. I responded that supporting StevieM Apr 2016 #150

I don't care if he Tweets it. I'll remain resolute. desmiller Apr 2016 #28

Why are you so afraid of Bernie's continued candidacy? Of letting all the Democrats have their say? highprincipleswork Apr 2016 #32

We had to register for that tent back in October. artislife Apr 2016 #37

I truly pray that the smallmindedness on both sides, but in this case on the Hillary side, ceases. highprincipleswork Apr 2016 #44

I am a lifelong Dem who is almost completely out the door now artislife Apr 2016 #47

Sorry for the misinformation. Kudos to lifelong Dem and Bernie supporter. I agree that the highprincipleswork Apr 2016 #51

Yeah, if the primaries would start in CA, NY, FL, TX on the first day, JustABozoOnThisBus Apr 2016 #72

Uh, in 2008 CA voted on Super Tuesday, early in the cycle and CA voted for Hillary. Barack won Bluenorthwest Apr 2016 #98

2008 was strange. Hillary got most of the votes, but lost on delegates. JustABozoOnThisBus Apr 2016 #109

Does DWS post under the name "Skinner"? JustABozoOnThisBus Apr 2016 #73

DWS probably goes by the handle "RepublicanInDisguise" if she is honest in her self-naming. Gore1FL Apr 2016 #127

Continuing the charade of the Sanders Campaign at this point just helps Republicans. baldguy Apr 2016 #74

Bernie needs to stay in until the last primary is over. JoePhilly Apr 2016 #75

Skinner shouldn't call anything until the party does. Bad Dog Apr 2016 #76
