The Brazile email- perhaps tellingly- is one of the few that has been directly addressed. Denying it, of course, also helps to poison the well.

You dumb ass twit. The saying is: "When they go low. we go high". 

Oh and before I forget:  STFU.

I am beginning to think that he knows there is no way in H*ll he thinks he can win.  But for some stupid reason he just wants to cripple her and her Presidency.

Don't jump around thread to thread being a little bitch CA.  Three weeks to go and things couldn't look any better.  In a year the Dems should have lost, they're going to win and we'll get those SC justices.

I'm really surprised that millennial men support Clinton 20% more than millennial women.

Bernie Looks Ahead

"But is there a case to be made for Hillary, solely on her own merits?

On a number of issues, I believe Hillary Clinton’s positions are quite strong. I was happy to negotiate an agreement with her in the party’s platform which said that she would support making public colleges and universities tuition-free for families making $125,000 or less. That is pretty revolutionary. That will not only transform the ability of people to go to college, it will have an impact on kids in elementary school today who know that if they study hard, they can get a college education. She and I also agreed to a doubling of the expansion of community health centers. That’s tens of millions more people who will have access to primary health care and dental care and low-cost prescription drugs and mental health counseling. I want to raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour, and I think Clinton is open to moving in that direction, to at least $12 an hour. She supports infrastructure projects that will put millions of people back to work. She understands the significance of not acting on climate change, while Donald Trump does not believe that climate change is real, which is a real threat to the planet.

So what I would ask people is to take a hard look at (a) what a Donald Trump presidency would mean for this country, which in my view would be a disaster, and(b) how Clinton’s views on a number of issues are fairly good. That is what we should be focusing on—not the personalities of the candidates, but what their policies will do for the middle class and working families of this country.

You certainly played a major role in pushing Clinton to the left on some key issues, at least in the party’s platform. But many of your supporters don’t believe that Hillary really supports those positions or will make good on those promises. They see it as something she did in the platform to appease the left.

I think that Hillary Clinton is sincere in a number of areas. In other areas I think she is gonna have to be pushed, and that’s fine. That’s called the democratic process.

Right now, you have a majority of Republicans—of Republicans—who believe we should raise taxes on the wealthy. Do I think Clinton is prepared to do that? Yeah. Do I think she is prepared to do away with loopholes to get rid of outrageous tax breaks for large multinational corporations? Yeah, I do. Do I think she is serious about climate change, and that we can push her even further? Yeah, I do. Do I think that under Clinton we will raise the minimum wage? Yeah, I do. I’m not quite sure it will be 15 bucks an hour, but it will bring millions of people out of poverty.

Through the work of millions of people, we created a Democratic platform which is far and away the most progressive platform in the history of the United States of America for any political party. Our job the day after the election—and hopefully after Clinton is elected—is to make sure that that platform is implemented.

So what I would ask of young people is to turn off CNN. Let’s assume that Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders and you and everybody else are not perfect human beings, all right? Let’s take a look at the needs of ordinary people and which candidate will be better on that as president of the United States. On that approach, there is no debate to my mind that we should elect Clinton."

I know that wasn't directed at me, but just to be clear, my intention in posting that Bernie Sanders article was not to stir things up.

The only one in the entire Democratic world currently stirring up intra-party SH*T is South Florida. Other than his idiotic passive-aggressiveness, we're all good.

All the bad feeling has disappeared, and the great work is soon to begin.

"As our intelligence agencies have said, these leaks are an effort by a foreign government to interfere with our electoral process and I will not indulge it. Further, I want to warn my fellow Republicans who may want to capitalize politically on these leaks: Today it is the Democrats. Tomorrow it could be us."

Wait,  I thought we were supposed to hate Laura Benanti since she took Patti Murins side in

"The Great BWW Messageboard Wars"  

Has she finally "apologized"?
