(42,862 posts)... "all" or "a large number" of SC lawmakers.
But the truth is that it's only three. That's it ... three.

(194 posts)So many of the Bernie supporters on this site don't care about truth and honest debate. They ganged up on me and had one of my post hidden by jury, just because I responded unkind to one of their supporters more rude and ignorant comments with the same tone. I guess they can dish it out but they can't take it. And they say some of the dumbest and sometimes most ignorant things, even when presented with respectful common sense reasoning and fact. And for all their talk of how much Hillary is a liar, and everything else, I don't see Hillary's supporters on this site acting nearly as rude, ignorant, or as blind to reality as many of theirs do for Bernie. And like I said before, on my post that got hidden because of them (and this one probably will as well), I still long for the day when Hillary kicks his ass (And its sad, because I love Bernie, but I'm sick of these constant nasty anti Hillary threads and attacks, followed by all these pro Bernie threads).

(42,862 posts)My ignore-list contains well over 700 people.
The standards are (as you've noted) a bit lop-sided but that will change soon. Hold your tongue and avoid having more hidden threads. The fun is just beginning... Super Tuesday is almost here... and you won't want to miss out on that!
Go, Hillary! We love you!

(11,945 posts)you'll be surprised how many Democrats (and Independents) will lose interest in the race.
Hill will teeter, stumble, and fall. Then you can laugh.
