I sincerely doubt there are more than a small handful of Hillary supporters auntpurl Jun 2016 #1

Exactly! Positive posts welcome. betsuni Jun 2016 #3

Your profile says you're in Nevada - a swing state muriel_volestrangler Jun 2016 #15

In Nevada we have kiva Jun 2016 #18

In the general election for president? That's irresponsible. muriel_volestrangler Jun 2016 #23

I have to live with the consequences kiva Jun 2016 #28

The entire world would have to live with Trump as president muriel_volestrangler Jun 2016 #43

You have the NHS. kiva Jun 2016 #47

So you want to punish the Democratic party by letting Trump win muriel_volestrangler Jun 2016 #50

You have that backward. The democratic party is unresponsive to the people and a corporate arm of haikugal Jun 2016 #53

Not voting against Trump is like not getting your children vaccinated. muriel_volestrangler Jun 2016 #55

Again you have it backward. I will vote against Trump but I won't vote for Hillary. There fixed it haikugal Jun 2016 #56

If you don't vote for someone who stands any chance of winning, you might as well not bother muriel_volestrangler Jun 2016 #57

I believe Lazy Daisy Jun 2016 #60

That's trying to blame someone else for your own apathy muriel_volestrangler Jun 2016 #61

And many will be hurt Lazy Daisy Jun 2016 #62

This shouldn't be about your 'feelings'. It's about what is best for your fellow humans. muriel_volestrangler Jun 2016 #63

I didn't make it about my feelings, you did. Lazy Daisy Jun 2016 #65

The problem is that I don't think you're on the same side as DU and me muriel_volestrangler Jun 2016 #66

I went back over and reread my posts Lazy Daisy Jun 2016 #70

I choose the welfare kiva Jun 2016 #74

Thanks for this post, Maru. kiva Jun 2016 #64

No kiva - thank you. This is the me I like better Maru Kitteh Jun 2016 #71

We have an embarrassment of the Rich marions ghost Jun 2016 #72

That's true of every US presidential candidate. Lizzie Poppet Jun 2016 #52

It's been pointed out repeatedly that those hypothetical GE match-up polls are worthless. Garrett78 Jun 2016 #80

Pro-Sanders posts are great. The anti-Hillary posts will be gone, which will be great too. YouDig Jun 2016 #4

Good luck with that. n/t Miles Archer Jun 2016 #11

Thank you. And good luck to you with the delegate math. YouDig Jun 2016 #12

Pro-Sanders posts are 1/10th of the posts Sanders supporters make. LexVegas Jun 2016 #5

Curious what your calculation is for the post ratio for Clinton supporters... JudyM Jun 2016 #6

they are all about the issues reddread Jun 2016 #7

The Hillary group has been twice as busy as the Bernie group the last few days Renew Deal Jun 2016 #8

I see the post count is much higher. However the thread titles certainly are not more positive than JudyM Jun 2016 #20

Oh yea looking at that group now I can see all the happy hugs going on. TimPlo Jun 2016 #78

So you have actual numbers. You have graphed every post on DU, and you have numbers. Miles Archer Jun 2016 #13

No one ever thought of or suggested that "pro-Bernie posts" be banned Tarc Jun 2016 #22

There are people here who have suggested that ALL Sanders posts will be banned. Miles Archer Jun 2016 #32

You guys are delusional Demsrule86 Jun 2016 #24

Who the FUCK is suggesting "trying to post shit about your nominee?" Miles Archer Jun 2016 #33

Really? Demsrule86 Jun 2016 #37

So you'll be delivering pro-Bernie posts in bitter, divisive wrappers just like that? onehandle Jun 2016 #25

No, I won't, and good luck to you too. Miles Archer Jun 2016 #35

Sanders posts should not be posted in GE forum Demsrule86 Jun 2016 #26

I have found that, for me, the best way to negotiate this primary season Amaril Jun 2016 #41

I see you and two others dana_b Jun 2016 #46

Pro-Sanders ops don't bother us. The vitriol against Hillary does. hrmjustin Jun 2016 #42

fine. nobody here really objects to pro-Bernie posts. It's the Fox News, Breitbart geek tragedy Jun 2016 #44

Can you see me? 2banon Jun 2016 #45

It ain't over 'till it's over. PeoViejo Jun 2016 #48
