The Sanders campaign is using Monica Lewinsky to attack Hillary now????

That's some sleazy, desperate bullshit! I expect that kind of low handed,sexist,blame his wife assholery from right wingers,not democrats. Tuesday's drubbing can't come soon enough and Sanders can slink back into obscurity. Fuck him.

They're so fucking clueless it's pathetic.. but I'm actually glad they're so desperate they act like they have not one brain cell between them.

You saw BS was out there today saying he's "..losing primaries because poor people don't vote"?

http://www.democraticunderground.com/1107113882

Sanders has lost Democratic voters with household incomes below $50,000 by 55 percent to 44 percent to Clinton across primaries where network exit polls have been conducted. (He has lost by a wider 21 percentage-point margin among voters with incomes above $100,000, and by 9 points among middle income voters.)

I'm convinced Sanders is not anywhere near being or becoming a Democrat. The more he plays this destructive hand, even Vermont locals will dislike him...Maybe Howard Dean will run for his Senate Seat.

Obviously, they like prowling around in here. It's not as though alert-stalking still gets them a "prize" of having a member put on time-out any more. (Perhaps old habits are hard to break.)

I'm not sure what enjoyment they actually get out of this... unless they feel that flexing their muscle and showing their "authority" (majority?) on this web site is a good way to compensate for how poorly Bernie's doing in the primaries.

Empty gestures? Revenge? An attempt to give themselves some personal sense of "control" in an primary process over which they have absolutely NO control? (Sheesh! Who know what's going through their heads these days? Not I.)

On Sun Apr 24, 2016, 09:02 AM an alert was sent on the following post:

The Sanders campaign is using Monica Lewinsky to attack Hillary now????
http://www.democraticunderground.com/1107113981

REASON FOR ALERT

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Uncalled for. The candidate did not sanction this.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Sun Apr 24, 2016, 09:08 AM, and the Jury voted 3-4 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Bernie bait in the Hill camp. whodathunkit
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: These kind of RW smears against a Democratic candidate are uncalled for. And I'm talking about making cramp up about Sanders. This isn't his attack. Think you can blame Sanders for all attacks in the GE, too?
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: This is borderline in my opinion. Because it's borderline, I'm going to give the benefit of the doubt to the poster. It's not "nice" but it's also not worthy of being hidden. I've seen far worse "attacks," unfair blaming, and unkind words spoken against Hillary that have survived Bernie-dominated juries. This is one of those instances where the Alerter would have been better off to click the "trash thread" or "ignore user" button instead of immediately clicking the "alert" button.
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: There's a lot of anger and cursing here. Take a break and calm down.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: A strong expression of frustration, but not rising to the hide level.
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Leave it, if only to show what a whining hypocrite looks like.

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.

Perhaps not, but he knew from experience that Dawson was a loose cannon and he handed her a mic.


Makes you wonder what kind of shit a President Sanders would let his staff and administration pull.

How ironic, given what many have said about Clinton's sense of "entitlement", but I have seen absolutely zero evidence of that at any point in the campaign.

At this stage, BS's huffing and puffing and excuse making all suggest to me that he convinced himself at some point that he deserved to be the Dem's candidate and it is being unfairly taken away from him. I just do not believe that it's motivated by outrage at economic inequality.

I do understand people's frustration with the system and that they do not feel listened to or that their concerns are being addressed. But that needs to be laid squarely at the feet of the obstructionist Republicans and the voters who put them in office.
