Hillary Clinton
Related: About this forumI'm sorry, but I said it... (Hillary Group)
There is yet another thread by BS supporters stating that "Hillary cannot win without the votes of Bernie Supporters" and many responses stating that a lot of Bernie supporters will not support HRC. Well, I am tired of this blackmail that BS supporters impose on us that if Bernie isn't the nominee they won't support HRC, so I responded:
Bernie Cannot win without the support of Hillary Supporters
I'm tired of the threats that you guys make that you will not support the Democratic nominee if it is Hillary Clinton. Most Clinton supporters have pledged that they will support the democratic nominee--no matter what. Maybe you guys shouldn't take us for granted anymore if you are going to keep threatening not to vote for Hillary.

I'm not into cults of personality like some folks on this board.

"No more TV, time for bed....!" WAAAAAAH!
They'll get over it--and if they don't, they'll go vote for Trump or something. And then they'll REALLY have something to cry about!

(6,551 posts)It looks like they're posting every anti-Hillary 'news' and opinions that they can find. Hard to believe that it's worse than it's been, but it looks like it.
Barring some big Bernie victories on Super Tuesday, Hillary should be unstoppable especially given the super delegates.
I'd wager that a growing number of Bernie supporters are beginning to realize this. Expect the 'I'll never vote for Hillary' posts to increase.
They don't seem to realize that if Hillary gets the nomination, Bernie will make some behind-closed-doors demands from Hillary to get his endorsement. And Hillary needs it. I think she'll get it.
At that point, the Bernie supporters will have a decision to make. I'd bet almost all of them will follow Bernie's lead and vote for her. But for now, that's too far down the line, and certainly not top-of-the-mind for BS people.

Puerile and silly. Hope you aren't swarmed with nasty comments.

(92,325 posts)taking Clinton supporters for granted. If Bernie is the nominee, I am not sure if that can be assured anymore.
The attacking of PP, Naral, high profile civil rights leaders, and other groups and individuals who have endorsed Hillary is outrageous.
I have seen more than one thread using NewsMax as a reliable source.
I won't repeat the ad nausea threads, one after another constantly bashing Hillary, and calling her every name in the book.
It is self-destructive behavior, typical of a Nader philosophy
If Hillary wins the nomination, based on what I have read in some of the threads, I seriously believe they want Hillary to lose the general election in that case. This is a twisted f*ed up game for some of them. They want a "I told you so rant"
Those that profess that crash and burn philosophy are NOT progressives. A progressive would vote for the Democratic nominee if for nothing else because of the Supreme Court.
I think those that feel obligated to pursue that course, have exposed themselves for who they really are, and it isn't progressive or Democratic.
