It's pretty obvious what establishment democrats prefer: keep that money flowing, but let's not do too well or we may actually have to deliver on some of our promises.

field office to talk to us about his candidacy for a state legislature office. He's a Bernie supporter, but she sent him to us and asked us to sign his petition so he could get on the ballot. HILLARY supported him by sending him and we listened and signed his petition to get on the ballot. Keep laughing, because you have no idea what the definition of having coattails is. Where was Bernie for this young man. I look forward to helping him get into office in the fall because our district needs good representation and I think he will provide it.

The whole party is being purchased by wall street firms, defense contractors, & big oil.

yay!

...not the why, and it matters.

"I'm not judt compromising myself, I'm compromising the whole party"

Bernie will not be the nominee. Hillary will become our next president.

a comment that talked about all the Money sanders was raising--and could she keep up "?? And Hillary in her graceful way said yes...she was confident...

What you perceive as gracious sound to me like self-serving phoniness

Unless you donate more than $5400, it is all for Hillary

Congress and state seats.

other DEM candidates but he offer was not accepted by DWS initially. I imagine that it has been accepted since then.

That is where we are now after Obama embraced Clintonistas to help run his Admin and helped lose the 2010 mid-terms. The Democratic Party is in the minority in Congress and in most state legislatures and governor's mansions today.

Cllintonism = the Democratic Party being turned into the Rockefeller Republican party

and everything to do with poor party organization. The party did a piss poor job of getting out the vote in 2010 and the republicans gerrrymandered the congress like crazy.

Rahm is an infamous Clintonista and strongly pro-corporate Democrat and a notorious basher of the Democratic base. Along with him, Obama primarily stocked his Admin in the first term with Clintonistas and that led to policy decisions that depressed the Democratic base's turnout in 2010. That is what Clintonism does -- support Wall Street policies that depress the Democratic base.

Obama was chasing that Clinton unicorn, independent moderate voters and it cost the Democratic Party the majority in Congress and in a majority of state legislatures. Obama learned that if he wanted a second term, he had to reject at least some parts of Clintonism, but while Obama won re-election, he, like Bill Clinton, never won Congress back.

sounds like Bernie, and people get all excited about what she's said, I wonder why would anyone support her for saying what Bernie has been saying all along.

Feel the BERN!!!

#NotMeUs

money for the party while Bernie runs for president as the party nominee

extend to the state and local Democratic candidates... we can elect a wonderful President but it matters little if we are left with a Republican House and Senate (as well as governors, et. al...)

After all, the sun rises and sets in DNC headquarters.

Your input regarding the subject has also been noted.

riversedge--no denial, just name calling. Check.

For some reason this photoshop is really disturbing to me. It just looks freaky.

Have you seen the ones with cats?

Kind of a big difference between an adjective and a noun. I think everyone has done something foolish in their lifetime, but that doesn't make them a fool.

It rings true.

And much like the Clinton Foundation taking money/bribes for political favor, its impossible to prove.

Some things are just blatantly obvious.

Corruption.

low and behold, right in front of me was another vehicle with a Bernie bumper sticker. I have one as well. The only bumper stickers I have seen have been for Bernie. Here, in rural Upstate. I note that the Clinton campaign SAYS that they are raising money for down-ticket, but show the public. If indeed that is happening, then that would be a good thing to do. Words are just words. Bernie has NO super-pacs funded by millionaires and billionaires. Just, we the people. Over 3 million of us. Us'ns. Hoi Polloi.

Someone can donate $30,000 to it. The first $2,700 goes to the Hillary Clinton campaign. The rest goes to the DNC and state parties.

Hillary Clinton is apparently proud of raising money for the Democratic Party this way. However, I'm concerned about these big donations having a corrupting influence.

Truly it will.




I'm sorry, I tried to keep a straight face, truly I did.

As I'm sure other Bernie supporters will do.

Do the down ticket Dems get any love?

I am glad Hillary pointed this out. Sanders said on numerous occasions he would not attack or go negative and yet his campaign his been doing so with regularity recently. Yet supposedly Sanders is the most consistent, unwavering politician in the history of ever?

For the record: If Sanders wants to go negative, I don't blame him - it's part of politics. But when you claim over and over you refuse to go negative and then you do, it hurts your authenticity.

This is something I've been trying to figure out for awhile. So many people have a different idea of what is negative (ranging from statements of facts to outright distortion) that it gets difficult to have a conversation about it.

If she so much as sneezes in his direction without covering her mouth.

And it's a sign of a great Democrat.

That is some entertaining projection from one of the most negative campaigners in recent Democratic history.

The world we live in is indeed a strange place. But, I see from the logo that you are headed to a galaxy far far away.

and bad as opposed to a "johnny come lately" who wants to get the fruits without doing anything for 20 years. caucusing doesn't count that is only for his own power.

TPTB.

Which is Hillary's (and the Dem party's) biggest problem. I think the American people are really tired of big money buying our politicians and controlling our government.

like Dino Debbie?
