Hey, who talked about being against a Dem purge?
Thats exactly what some Clinton supporters, not all, are proceeding to do.
Slamming us and name calling for not following the official Dems' powerstructure line!

You are probably right.
And of course not all of you are idiots.
The real dumbs are the powerfull dems who planted "Hillary or the Chaos" and "Hillary is inévitable" into masses minds.

There should be a spot on DU's front page that's kept up to date with the current disgusting reason that's the only possible reason that anyone wouldn't love the Inevitable One.

(45,319 posts)who looked at Reagan's inaction on AIDS and cheered for more death, voted for Reagan a second time then for Bush....Hillary looks better every day.
Warren should have explained herself long, long ago. We will not allow her to rewrite important history to sell her false narrative. If she can not speak about her past right wing toxicity, she deserves not one Democratic vote. If that means it's Hillary then so be it.
Silence = Death
Knowledge = Life

MannyGoldstein
(34,589 posts)And why don't I recall you posting similar screeds about Hillary's vote that killed hundreds of thousands of innocents in Iraq, and her desire to kill more people in the Middle East today?
Interesting.
And not to make light of any disease... but how many Americans had died of AIDS when Reagan was re-elected in 1984? Among causes of death, how did it rank? Was there any reason to believe that the effort arrayed against it was was lower than for other diseases, adjusted for it's dangerousness?

ALERTER'S COMMENTS
An undeserved, unfactual, disruptive, and over-the-top attack.
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Mon Nov 10, 2014, 04:04 PM, and the Jury voted 3-4 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Waste of an alert.
Every time someone pushes the alert button a kitten dies. Please think of the kittens.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: A stupid post but not really ban worthy.
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Unfactual isn't a word. Nonfactual? Prove it. If you don't like what's being said, leave the thread or prove them wrong. I'm not hiding just because you don't like what is being said.
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.

(89,254 posts)those are the ones who have shown interest in another run . Warren said she is not going to run. although if she does run i think that's where Hillary or others will attack her the most and may hurt her.
merrily
(45,251 posts)Hillary refuses to announce; Warren has said any number of times that she is not running.
Sanders says he will run, if he sees support.
Ten others may still come forward, or not. We just don't know. It's way too soon to say it's going to be Hillary vs Warren, full stop.

You didn't ask me to give an opinion.

I was very much for Obama in 2008.
Clinton supporter and frequentspokesperson, James Carville, at the 2008 Democratic National Convention held to nominate Obama, flaunting PUMAs and a smirk.

(71,265 posts)I remember on mirt this came up and we were told not to nuke unless it was close to election time. I think that waslast year or early this year.
As I said I did not like when people did it in 2008 and I don't like it now. That is just my opinion.

(45,251 posts)In any event, it's a rule and I try to obey board rules if I post on a board. As I said, who knows what happens in two years anyway? She hasn't even committed to run yet. Why do I have to commit two years in advance?

In the end, the voters are needed. I don't think HRC should be annointed, nor do I think any candidate should be annointed by the party bigwigs, or the media. It's always good to have a vibrant primary, and no one should be insulting anyone who wants that. Once the candidate is selected, things change. Before that, the more the merrier.

(3,580 posts)I'm seeing claims of victim hood already. From both camps. I'm just not going to play this game here. I am new to this forum so can only imagine what the obama vs hillary 08 threads looked like.
I'm not going to self deport because of who I support and neither should anyone else. The idea that factions within the dem party would demand a purge after we lost so much on Tuesday to me sounds like a GOP plan.

(11,619 posts)At this time, I support Vermine Supreme. We need a performance artist in the White House.
That may change as others make official declarations.
I think we should do away with ridiculous attacks on people who don't support our candidate.
I think Democrats who do not support Vermine Supreme are allowed their honest differences of opinion. I think the same of those who support Hillary Clinton as a possible candidate, or anyone else.
merrily
(45,251 posts)Hillary plays it coy, as though it's a prom date; Warren says definitely not and Sanders says he'll run if he sees support. So, it looks like Vermine Supreme could pull ahead early and make it! Fingers crossed.
