Keep on trying to discourage & demoralize Merryland Mar 2016 #1

Why is stating thoughtful analysis "discouraging" and "demoralizing" brooklynite Mar 2016 #2

Well we thought she had this wrapped up... GeorgiaPeanuts Mar 2016 #3

When someone has to resort to a personal insult, I usually assume they've lost the argument. brooklynite Mar 2016 #4

She does. The thing is there seem to be a number of people who joined DU DanTex Mar 2016 #5

Don't you get tired of repeating that over and over... GeorgiaPeanuts Mar 2016 #8

Of course Trump supporters are entitled to their opinion. Never claimed otherwise. DanTex Mar 2016 #10

And another to go on ignore n/t JesterCS Mar 2016 #47

Bernie or Bust, is that you? Are you a person who ascribes to that? Jackie Wilson Said Mar 2016 #55

Nope GeorgiaPeanuts Mar 2016 #59

Wait, what does that mean? Will you or will you not vote for Hillary if she is picked? Jackie Wilson Said Mar 2016 #60

"New Democrats"... GeorgiaPeanuts Mar 2016 #63

So someone who wont vote for the Democratic Party in arguably the worst time Jackie Wilson Said Mar 2016 #65

The rightward March is what is killing the party... GeorgiaPeanuts Mar 2016 #66

So were you to be in a swing state you will facilitate a GOP White House, got it. Jackie Wilson Said Mar 2016 #67

Insanity is doing the same thing over again... GeorgiaPeanuts Mar 2016 #68

So yes, you believe a Trump or Cruz presidency is not all that bad. Got it. Jackie Wilson Said Mar 2016 #70

I'm not playing your hypothetical game GeorgiaPeanuts Mar 2016 #72

So do you have friends or family in other states? Do you tell them to risk the White House Jackie Wilson Said Mar 2016 #73

You don't go left by going right, either. AgadorSparticus Mar 2016 #75

You have me scratching my head now.... FarPoint Mar 2016 #81

Welcome to DU, but I was doing just fine before you showed up and started giving me posting advice. DanTex Mar 2016 #19

Indeed! FarPoint Mar 2016 #77

Let me check join date here... Godhumor Mar 2016 #18

...and the snarky one liners continues. n/t Sheepshank Mar 2016 #37

Do you follow me around waiting for me to make a snarky comment? GeorgiaPeanuts Mar 2016 #45

I don't follow you. What an absolutely ridiculous premise Sheepshank Mar 2016 #46

Superdelegates RampageSnipa586 Mar 2016 #9

She agreed to debate in NY before the primary... GeorgiaPeanuts Mar 2016 #11

Nothing in that post is true upaloopa Mar 2016 #34

Isn't it 528 that screwed up big-time when predicting Michigan? n/t woodsprite Mar 2016 #13

538 and all the polling agencies on which they depend. Which is pretty much everyone. stevenleser Mar 2016 #17

Like NY and CA? morningfog Mar 2016 #24

CA was contested in 2008 JI7 Mar 2016 #54

Not to mention they were only polling likely Democratic voters and didn't factor independents... CalvinballPro Mar 2016 #29

Exactly. When you look at the Dems only vote, then their model was right. n/t Yavin4 Mar 2016 #61

But it isnt fully over yet, so I wish both groups would just allow the candidates to do Jackie Wilson Said Mar 2016 #57
