(3,660 posts)Blue Nation Review is just a Pravda-style propaganda outlet run by it's own Joseph Goebbels Peter Daou. It's owned by Correct The Record, one of Hillary's super-PACs which is ran by admitted liar David Brock. Brock previously gained recognition for his smears on Anita Hill, helping to get Clarence Thomas on the Supreme Court, as well as his smears against the Clintons before they took him on the payroll.
The Daily Beast, has Chelsea on the board.
Those 2 sources alone are cited most often by Hillary followers, yet they love to claim Goodman is not legit.
Hypocrisy, thy name is Hillary follower...
Dr Hobbitstein
(6,568 posts)I doubt you'd ever find me linking to them.
Thanks for playing though.
revbones
(3,660 posts)Hillary followers regularly do though. And Goodman is more legit than those sources.
Dr Hobbitstein
(6,568 posts)Never once been right. Never.
BNR and Daily Beast were once regularly posted here at DU, as a good trusted source. HA Goodman has never been considered a trusted source, and never will be. It's just really bad fanfic.
revbones
(3,660 posts)Dr Hobbitstein
(6,568 posts)BNR and Daily Beast have been right, numerous times. You take issue with their CURRENT ownership, but they both have long histories of being correct. HA Goodman has a history of NEVER being right about ANYTHING.
revbones
(3,660 posts)While I'm sure my opinion means as much to you as yours does to me, the ownership is a undisputable fact - so really the only thing we can rely on...
Dr Hobbitstein
(6,568 posts)Because HA Goodman did. Which is why I'd NEVER support that asshat's horrid writing.
revbones
(3,660 posts)Nope. I'll take them over propaganda outlet Blue Nation Review any day of the week.
Dr Hobbitstein

jcgoldie
(11,631 posts)Aside from the fact that the superdelegates are probably extremely hesitant to swing the election to the candidate who did not win the most pledged delegates in the primaries, there is the not so small problem that Sanders has done zero to campaign or raise money for down ticket democrats. These are the people who are superdelegates at the convention. Why would they do him any favors? It's a ridiculous premise.

Iraq, Trustworthiness, and the FBI Investigation Make Bernie Sanders More QualifiedThan Hillary Clinton

Now that Bill Clinton has displayed his true feelings towards Black Lives Matter, months after Southern states helped Hillary take an early lead,...

As Long as Hillary Clinton Risks FBI Indictment, Bernie Sanders Is the Real Front-Runner

In order to understand why Bernie Sanders is the true Democratic front-runner, and why Hillary Clinton should concede the nomination to Sanders, take a closer look at the FBI's email investigation. Few people know more about the FBI probe than Jason Leopold, and his latest piece in
It's Time for Hillary Clinton to Concede the Democratic Nomination to Bernie Sanders

With Bernie Sanders now slightly ahead of Clinton nationally in the latest Bloomberg poll, it's time to reevaluate the meaning of pragmatism. Hillary Clinton might be ahead of Bernie Sanders in delegates, but Vermont's Senator has a monopoly on political momentum. Sadly, his opponent has a monopoly on...

(6,568 posts)They're already wrong.
Also, they've predicted 1975 correctly, but were wrong in 1987 (they picked Dukakis winning over Dole, so they were wrong twice on that one seeing as it was Dukakis v Bush). They were right in 2007 and 2011, however. So, 100% accurate isn't quite accurate, and they've only done it 5 times, not in every election since 1975 like the articles claim.

(6,007 posts)Those in the intelligence community take this very seriously. And from the things they say it sounds very serious. She put people's lives on the line, undercover moles in other countries, so she wouldn't be "inconvenienced", but it wasn't the inconvenience of using multiple devices, it was the inconvenience of having the pesky government or public oversight.
One of these people said that they heard from people in the FBI, that if they recommend indictment and the DOJ doesn't, somehow the information will find its way out and her career will be ovah.
It is serious what she did.

But at this time in her life..I really do believe she would be content with her life as it is now. Grandchildren have a way putting everything in perspective.
I neve have figured out why anyone would want to be President in this climate anyway.

(10,857 posts)The real purpose of the email story is to sap enthusiasm from Bernie Sanders supporters. They can't steal it from us if you don't stay home on election day.
If you look at the structure of the "scandal" in the news one can easily see that it is a house of cards built upon a self-sustaining rumor-mill. One chump comes on CNN and says, "I think there's a chance Mrs. Clinton will be indicted," and the rest of the amen corner picks up the chant, then it becomes an opinion piece in the Wall Street Journal, then it becomes a bandied-about fact on television "news." But it's still bullshit.
This is exactly how WMDs in Iraq were sold to the American people, by the same criminals, and probably with just as much basis in fact.
It's a psyops being run on YOU, and it has to work for The Man to get close enough to steal it this time. No matter how much you want to believe, Hillary ain't The Man. The GOP would not have invested so much time and effort into this fallacious story if she was.

He is all about fantasy.
LiberalFighter
(50,950 posts)Goodman is a distraction, reading his articles is living in a bubble and refusing to accept that Clinton does have more money, better organized and active supporters - from canvassers to phonebankers and so on - and her endorsement list is longer and more impressive.
If we read nothing but Goodman all damn day, everyone might just assume Sanders' nomination is inevitable and I think it really reinforces slacktivism.
Another poster pointed out that Goodman would vote for Rand Paul.
Goodman is nothing but drool.
