I like this new lawn sign:

[Kingofalldems]

[demmiblue]

1. Stop trying to sneak GDP into GD. Also, photoshopped. n/t

[Kingofalldems]

2. Stop making up shit about me. This is not about the primaries.

I don't even post there.

Try doing a little research before making things up.

[Skittles]

3. fucking touchy, aren't they?

gawd

[Kingofalldems]

4. Touchy and nasty.

What in the hell is so offensive about a pro Democratic post?

[Wounded Bear]

6. Sure wish we had more of them...

You'd think that Democratic Underground would welcome them.

[Cryptoad]

7. Many Bern supporter dont

consider themselves Democrats, only thing i can figure

[silvershadow]

11. Those would be some of the new ones he's bringing back into the party. nt

[baldguy]

16. Can't "bring back" what was never there in the first place.

A good percentage of them are so subsumed with RW propaganda & hatred for anything Clinton, that they'll abandon the Democratic Party for Trump as soon as Sanders concedes.

[silvershadow]

18. You sure can. Bringing back into the fold means wooing back disenchanted voters, and we try to

do it every cycle. If they didn't vote last cycle, yet we bring them back, then we have won. Nice attempt to decide what I meant. Anybody who has spent any serious time in an election war room should know that.

[A Simple Game]

40. You must be a Hillary supporter, always viewing things from a right wing perspective.

I happen to be living proof of Bernie bringing people back to the party. I came back because the party finally has a liberal alternative for this election. Most of us that have returned are from the left, not the right and if you bothered to learn about Bernie's stand on the issues you would realize how foolish your thinking we are from the right sounds.

You on the other hand are one of the reasons I probably will not stay as a Democrat after the elections and will return to being unaffiliated.

Signed,
A DINO from the left.

[morningfog]

12. And this is why GDP material has to be strictly corralled.

[Kittycat]

13. Is this a joke? Why are you calling out Bernie supporters?

I've been here since 2004. This doesn't belong in GD. Nor does your crappy comment.

On edit: let me rephrase. If crappy comments calling out supporters of certain candidates are going to be made, it doesn't belong here.

[LiberalArkie]

38. They keep saying we are not true Democrats.

[Skittles]

8. it's the hysteria over all things Hillary

yup

PS - to whomever is going to respond screeching THEY DO IT TOO!! just fucking SAVE IT

[Kingofalldems]

9. At the risk of offending someone by mentioning primaries--

I'll be glad when they are over. This nonsense has got to cease.

[BlueMTexpat]

26. +1! eom

[rpannier]

53. That was weird

I don't get the level of response

[lewebley3]

30. Sherrod Brown from Ohio should be the VP for Hillary

[rpannier]

55. Disagree

Not with Kasich as governor
And don't the Republicans control the legislature -- or at least part of it?
Last thing we need (IMO) is another damned Republican in the Senate

[Texasgal]

5. Great sign!

Love it!

[SCantiGOP]

10. Yes

Let's buy one for every DU member.

[In_The_Wind]

23. Yes, indeed!

[DrBulldog]

14. He must be a really boring poker player . . .

[Mira]

15. I am a sign maker

and I think this is wonderful in concept, and hilarious in making folks think. Kind of poorly designed, but that's not so important.
It will be a while, if ever, that Susan Sarandon will have it on her lawn.

[baldguy]

17. Take note that the only ones who seem to be offended are Sanders supporters.

[Hekate]

21. Odd thing, that.

[We_Must_Organize]

65. I completely agree

I am voting for Bernie Sanders, but you better damn well believe that if Hillary wins the primary I'll do everything I can to get her elected. Some Bernie supporters remind me of right wing goof balls that demand purity or nothing. If you seriously think HRC is on the same level as republicans you're simply a misinformed idiot.

[SunSeeker]

70. LOL. Yep.

[LostOne4Ever]

19. Nice! nt

[Maru Kitteh]

20. I like it.

I would put one up in my yard. I'm pro-Hill but it's important to keep perspective.

[LenaBaby61]

50. I like this new lawn sign...

I'm pro Bernie and I do keep things in perspective. If not him then Hillary. Surely not Trump or Cruz or to sit anything out. The Supreme Court IS up for grabs .....

Let me stop before I scare myself thinking about a Supreme Court where Trump or Cruz could appoint whoever they WANT to the High Court.

[dmr]

22. Absolutely agree.

It's healthy to disagree during the primaries, but it is important to be united in the general.

I stay out of the primaries. I hate the negativity and the nastiness. At times, I'm disgusted, & even embarrassed at the discord. I will not publicly say anything negative about any Democrat - something my dad taught me. You don't give ammo to be used later by your foes.

(Disclaimer: I have publicly dissed Joe Lieberman, & DWS, they were/are poison.)

[FSogol]

24. Perfect. n/t

[Loki]

25. ^This is what it is all about^

Glad to see some levity and humor back. Thank you Kingofalldems!

[BlueMTexpat]

27. I like it too.

Very much! Thanks for posting!

[Tanuki]

28. Love it....thanks! Something I would think any Democrat could support!

[byronius]

29. Yes.

[rtracey]

31. hmmm

ok what does GDP and GD mean.... my only thought is Gross Domestic Product, but that can't be correct....? so?

[Spitfire of ATJ]

63. You got the "gross" part right.....

Come to think of it, it all fits.

[Wibly]

32. Clinton spin

Last edited Thu Apr 7, 2016, 01:52 PM - Edit history (1)

Vote Dem, whether we chose our leader fairly and squarely or not.

[Kingofalldems]

33. Take your hate and nonsense somewhere else.

What an ignorant post.

[Wibly]

34. That's your interpretation

I'm not hating on anyone. I'm simply saying this whole argument about how people have to vote Dem no matter who the Dems put up, even if that person wins without popular support, is nonsense.
People should vote their conscience. If that means not voting for the Dem winner, so be it. That's the way democracy works. It has nothing to do with hate.

[Kingofalldems]

35. It's not the way DU works.

And you chose to join.

[bhikkhu]

36. The Democratic party platform has always represented my conscience well

so I'm inclined to like the sign very much. We all share a good set of values.

[Wibly]

66. no hate

There was no hate in my post.
People have a right to vote their conscience.
If Clinton cannot win the trust of the people, she does not deserve the support. End of story.
Not hate involved, just democratic rights and principles. Clinton must win legitimately, and not by default because the other guys are worse.
You have accused me of hate couple times, and its just not true. I fully support Democratic principles. I simply do not see Hillary Clinton doing so. She represents corporate control principles.
If you want me to support her you are going to have to do something more effective than accuse me of hate, because all the will do is drive me elsewhere.

[Kingofalldems]

67. Again, read the TOS of DU which you willfully joined.

[VOX]

37. Hell YES to this sign!

So tired of all the infighting. Anyone who's NOT going to vote for *the Democratic* nominee in November should exit DU after the final primary.

[ffr]

39. Took me a minute, but I got it! K&R

I'm with you.

[PoliticalMalcontent]

41. Gee, you know if Sanders folks are so passionate

About their candidate and Clinton supporters apparently don't care who the candidate is as long as it's a winner in November, why not just work together to nominate the candidate with the best chance of pulling in independents, etc?

Sanders is clearly far more electable per favorability polls. Sanders voters clearly don't like Clinton and people she mingles with (DWS). If you guys don't give a shit, why are we struggling to come to a conclusion on this?

I don't trust Clinton one iota.

[Kingofalldems]

42. So are you saying if Clinton supporters pledge to vote

for the nominee regardless of who it is, that's bad?

[PoliticalMalcontent]

45. I'm saying if you're open to backing either nominee, why not the one with the best chance in a GE?

Particularly if one has less baggage, is more well liked, and seems to want to fight for everyone instead of those already 'in the club.'

Fundraising numbers speak volumes about what Sanders has tapped into. I don't think if Clinton is nominated all those Sanders' backers are going to start throwing their money toward someone they don't believe in.

Edit: Perhaps this has less to do with the original post and is more specifically targeted toward Clinton backers.

[SunSeeker]

71. Please stop stinking up a Dem unity thread with your anti-Hillary propaganda. nt

[HuckleB]

43. Indeed. -eom-

[MichiganVote]

44. Needs some Walmart advertising. And that little recycle symbol-totally liberal.

Kidding.

[Califonz]

46. I don't live in a swing state

The Democratic nominee is going to win by 20%, even if they nominate a turkey sandwich.

[Kingofalldems]

48. Same here.

[Aerows]

47. I'd like one that says

"Get on my lawn, and mow it while you are there."

[UtahLib]

49. Yes! eom

[Liberal_in_LA]

51. lol. love it

[rusty quoin]

52. Tap down the left side. It irks me to see out of level...such a perfect sign.

[L. Coyote]

54. I approve. I support our candidates.

[afertal]

56. My loyalty is to the...

..people's nominee, not the Party nominee.

[Kingofalldems]

57. So why did you join Democratic Underground?

Did you read the TOS?

[afertal]

58. No, I did not....

...perhaps I should investigate and reconsider. I did not know I was required to take a loyalty pledge to the Democratic Party.

[Kingofalldems]

59. Good try.

No oath is mentioned in the TOS which I presume you still haven't read.

[SylviaD]

61. LOVE IT!!! nt

[lib87]

62. I Need the Sign

For my own yard.

[LW1977]

64. K&R

[grahamhgreen]

68. Amen!

[TomCADem]

69. Unlike Past Few Elections, Saving Contributions for General

I have evenly split contributions in the past, but this time, the GOP nominees just scare me.

[SunSeeker]

72. K & R
