We are done with Bernie

[leftofcool]

After his saying that Hillary is not qualified to be president, hubby says he will not vote at all if Bernie is the nominee and he is now getting people on board with him. Says he is going to launch his own campaign against Bernie. Looks like Bernie just destroyed what small chance he had with Democrats.

[DavidDvorkin]

1. I hope he will vote for Sanders if he's the candidate

But I don't think that will be an issue.

[misterhighwasted]

6. Why? He is stealing the Dem Platform with the intent of destroying the Dem Party

I will vote for the True Dem candidate. Not the Indy socialist that doing the dirty work for the Republicans by destroying Hillary Clinton.

I'm only voting Dem & Bernie isn't qualified to be a Dem.
He's not getting that far anyway.
What a horrific thought

[DavidDvorkin]

11. If he's the candidate

Then not voting for him is voting for the Republican.

I dislike Sanders intensely, but I still think it's the case that he would be preferable to a Republican in the White House.

[misterhighwasted]

20. My choices then become Socialist bernie who STILL can't answer how he's going

to bring his main stump speech promises to fruition & hasn't lifted a finger to bring down ticket candidates in to get his big ideas passed.
He's all talk with no clue nor care beyond the stump speech.
I will never support nor trust, a candidate who demeans the female gender with his Rape Fantasy writings as a 30 yr old adult, no more than I would have anyone else who was so secure in that thinking that he would write it down & put it in print, around my college age daughters or wife.
He gives me the fuckin creeps.
Why would I vote for someone who, by all accts, believes his big ideas are all that important or worthy of a Presidential vote.
He's not qualified to sit at my family dinner table.

Bernie Sanders is no different than a RWTeaparty.
No thanks.
Its a Dem or no one.
Bernie isn't qualified to be a Dem.

Thanks for asking anyway.

44. Anything's better than the beast that emerges on the other side.

Better than someone who will effectively cut off abortion access, which, while it won't reduce the number of abortions, will increase the number of women dying trying. Hope you vote for scotus. Lesser of two evils.

[MFM008]

41. agree

any republican is poison.

[FarPoint]

19. I won't vote Sanders if he is the nominee.

I just won't.....

[misterhighwasted]

23. Me neither. Only vote straight ticket Dem

and he's proven he is not a Dem. He behaves like a RW Teapartist.
Why would I vote for that?

[Cha]

29. I know how you feel.. but, you don't even have to say that.. BS is not going to be the candidate..

and we can thank our lucky stars and Hillary's excellent qualifications.

and, of course, BS being his own worst enemy.

[FarPoint]

58. I know Cha....and do need to hear it too.

I just have to suffer a few more weeks is one way to look at this.

[Cha]

59. You're not alone.. in fact you're in excellent company.

[riversedge]

63. very excellant company. Such a sad day for all Democrats

[shadowandblossom]

46. sorry to be annoying but

don't forget scotus... This is a big year.

[FarPoint]

57. I still will not vote for Bernie...

I will leave it blank....

[radical noodle]

2. Your hubby has my vote!

[nygurl]

45. Mr. leftofcool for Secretary of State!

and also: is he going to get away with not releasing his taxes and lying about it?
Oh, yah, I forgot, quote-unquote, my wife-ate-my-schedule-A.

[Stuckinthebush]

3. We can't stand him

My wife and I, that is.

We are tired of his shtick and his one note message. We are tired of his constant attack on the real Dem in the race. We are tired of his followers using right wing attacks to prop up their very flawed candidate. We are tired of listening to him speak.

We are tired of this game and are ready for the inevitable....the only real outcome of this "race".

We are ready for Hillary and are tired of her having to waste money on this non -Democrat.

Most of all we are tired of what this once beautiful place has become and are ready for the eventual culling of the hateful anti Hillary voices.

[Her Sister]

4. It was insulting!

to the DEMS Party and our nominee! What a joke! Another fail! This week something is up!

[Cary]

5. But it is not about the person

There is too much at stake to make it about him.

Someone said on talk radio, about Sanders supporters, that they are doing KKKarl Rove's dirty work, and yes we see that here. Let's not emulate them.

[misterhighwasted]

7. Bernie is not qualified to be a Democrat. I only vote true Dem

..& straight party ticket.

Bernie isn't a Dem. Sorry

[BellaLuna]

14. grow the hell up

None of us want him but your responsibility is to vote for what's best for the country and that is certainly not ending up with Cruz or Trump.

Sanders wouldn't get a damn thing done with congress anyway but it's a lot better than what Trump/Cruz will do.

Suck it up buttercup - realistically it's gonna be Hillary anyway but still.

[misterhighwasted]

21. I will never vote for brrnie the socialist.

I vote Dem or no one.
Thats more grown up than voting for the socialist who set out from day 1 to divide the Dem Party.
What's that worth. Bernie Sanders is not worth anymore than a Republican.
Why would I reward him for doing all he could to destroying the Dem Party.
He has no intention of bringing togethet the party he has divided with slander, lies & hate.

Its a Dem or no one. And that is far more grown up than putting him in the White House.
Bernie Sanders is the Teaparty. Why would I want that?
He is no different than the Republicans.

I could never bring myself to vote for either.
I will stay a Dem.
Thanks anyway.

[misterhighwasted]

22. Don't you ever tell me to grow up OR suck it up buttercup.

I see you are new to the Hillary Group.
I see you have a total of 3 posts in 90 days. And 2 posts in the Hillary Group.
Yet you've been registered on DU since 2004.

Where you been for 12 years?
Just asking, oh ya and welcome to the Hillary Group
Enjoy your stay.

[misterhighwasted]

24. There is nothing about Brrnie Sanders that is best for the country

He is angry, insulting and unpredictable.

[shadowandblossom]

48. there is at least one thing

he can pick a scotus who won't tear apart everyone's rights the way a Ted Cruz pick would.

[misterhighwasted]

50. I honestly wouldn't trust him on that either.

I trust nothing about him.
I'd be concerned that he'd sell out to the NRA, as to the SC pick.
And a few other things.

There's just no trust there for me
But I appreciate your being fair.
Nite

[shadowandblossom]

52. Night

Peace.

[Cha]

37. Sorry, no. You do not get to come into our group and be rude to our members no matter

who you support.

[misterhighwasted]

43. **

[Cha]

47. Yes, you are!

[misterhighwasted]

49. Love you my friend

Cha is da bomb

I have to say thank you & good night now. Would love to hang with you for awile but the alarm's going off in 4 hrs.

[Cha]

51. Love you back, mister~

Oh dear.. 4 hours sleep.. sounds like me the other day.. I made it, fine.. you can do it!

Mahalo~

[Manifestor_of_Light]

8. Bernie is a New Deal Democrat.

That is because he shares values with Roosevelt. The Democratic party has not seen a real liberal in many decades.

[Rose Siding]

13. “I am not now, nor have I ever been, a liberal Democrat.” -BS

fyi

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

15. Then why does he oppose the Export-Import bank?

It was started by Roosevelt and is NOT CORPORATE WELFARE. It actually turns a profit for the tax payers.

[SunSeeker]

17. Boom! (mic drop)

[Historic NY]

18. Mods cleanup in asile 5..........................NOW.

[Cha]

26. Sorry, it took awhile.. he's gone.

[TexasTowelie]

38. The poster is actually a she.

I wanted to correct the record and was a bit shocked to see her in this group.

[Cha]

39. Thank you, I always appreciate that. I tell other when they get the gender wrong and I

know it, too.

TexasT~

[misterhighwasted]

25. Lol. Oh now he's a new deal Dem! First he was an Indy, then a

..socialist, then a dem socialist,. The only thing he is not is a true Dem.
Now its a New Deal Dem!
Like FDR?
Really. Well FDR was against socialism.
So no one's really sure what bernie is anymore.

He sure does like to talk tho.

[Cha]

31. I just told him.. BS was this guy..

in the post below..

[misterhighwasted]

33. Oh my! well thats some truth serum Cha

[Cha]

35. I know, right.. quotes straight from the mouth of BS himself.. can't get much truthier than that.

mister~

[misterhighwasted]

40. "What a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive"

He's dug quite the deep hole with the last doozy.

NY LOVES HILLARY

[Cha]

30. BS is this guy..

http://theobamadiary.com/2016/03/31/early-bird-chat-710/

This is one good reason why Hillary has most of the Super Dels with her.. Most of the Democratic Leaders are Down Ticket.. Amazing! They appreciate those who know we're all in this together.. not just for ourselves.

[Cary]

62. Good grief. Like a broken record.

I'm so tired of this schtick.

[DemonGoddess]

67. Attempting to equate Sanders with FDR

is laughable. They are WORLDS apart.

[anotherproletariat]

9. I kind of agree...it seems that Mr. Sanders is losing it. nt

[Rose Siding]

12. Chill, it won't happen, but acting on that theoretical idea would only help Republicans

Values and some are better than none.

[SunSeeker]

16. I just had lunch with two men from my office who were Bernie fans.

I was stunned when they started talking about how Bernie had no chance under the math, and he needs to stop attacking Hillary. These same guys just a month ago were gushing over how inspiring he was.

And that was before any of us heard the news about Sanders calling Clinton unqualified!

[Cha]

27. That is encouraging, SunSeeker!

Thank you!

[littlebit]

28. For a minute I was thinking the same thing

But as much as I can not stand the guy I would vote for him over any of the republicans.

[Cha]

32. I just got an SOP alert from a BS supporter who doesn't think we have a right to

talk about this in our Group.

I wonder if he alerts in the BS group when they talk about Hillary?

Thank you, leftofcool..

BS is his own worst enemy..

[GusBob]

34. Never really began with him

Not a good start with him. A grumpy boring undynamic person makes a poor candidate. Never was nor will be a democrat.

We are all for HRC here all the way.

[Stand and Fight]

36. I can understand where your husband is coming from. n/t

[MFM008]

42. Will Sanders be the next Nader?

After jumping the shark today about HRCs qualifications im beginning to be concerned.

[Firebrand Gary]

53. My spouse will absolutely not be supporting Sander's in the general, consequences be damned.

And quite truthfully, I'm very close to making that same commitment. Fortunately, he will not be the nominee and therefor we don't really have to worry about it.

I'm a democrat, I am not a socialist, therefor I do not vote for socialists. #Truth

[JustAnotherGen]

54. I can respect that

I could vote for him IF he is the nominee - but I would need to hear -

Black Americans are included in the Revolution going forward but have a 30 year excused absence for paying for it. Or - I would need him to put the Paycheck Fairness Act at the top of the platform. OR - I would need to hear him state: Radioactive Waste must be disposed in the state in which it was generated.

He has to make me vote for him. I'm just thinking the fix is in for some, many will be left out, and affluent, rich and wealthy blacks will be treated like Wall Street Investment bankers - when we don't have the tools those folks have to hide their "easy money" - that for us was hard earned.

[Coolest Ranger]

55. What JAG said

So far I'm not hearing how his money message affects people of color. All I hear is his wishes for his supporters. Damn the rest of us. I was listening to Reverend Al yesterday and nearly every person who called in pretty much laid the smack down on him telling Al that he needs to stop promising things that he can't deliver. Many said that the New York Time's interview doomed his chances of winning the nomination and several said that his supporters who go all over social media bullying people is why they aren't voting for him. That brought a smile to my face

[KewlKat]

56. Well if we feel strongly that we couldn't hold our nose and vote for BS if he by some

miraculous miracle won the nom, then maybe we can double down our efforts to get out the vote for our Hillary. I'm guilty of spending too much time online stressing over a repub win or worse BS so I need to seek out an organization that can help Hillary.

I still have some wonderful memories of President Kennedy and his words "My fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country."

He also said "Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and the success of liberty.

Here's hoping with the upcoming primaries we'll have some substantial wins and Hillary can lock up pledges she needs before the convention. Then we'll be faced with the GE and ? who will be throwing everything they can against her. We need to toughen up like her and push harder than ever to win this race.

Hope everyone has a great day and watch for Hillary in her press conference this morning. Wonder what she'll say?

^..^

[liberal N proud]

60. BS only came to the Democrats for two things

Resources and getting on the ticket.

He doesn't support any Democratic principles or candidates. All he has ever done is criticize Democrats. So FUCK him! Because that is what he is doing to us!

[Setsuna1972]

61. If by some crazy chance that Bernie wins the nomination

I'd rather leave and go back overseas again . The GOP will have a field day going after him ! And they would be able to say,"he really IS a Socialist !"

[riversedge]

64. ah, what a grand hubby. Yes, Bernie cooked his own goose--

[MBS]

65. So is Paul Krugman

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/04/08/opinion/sanders-over-the-edge.html?

[seaglass]

66. I voted for Hillary, plan to vote for her in the GE, dread even the thought of voting for Bernie but

if he is the nominee he will get my vote.

Are we not against Republicans taking the White House? Do you not object to Bernie or Bust? What about SCOTUS? What about women, POC, LGBT, immigrants etc?

I am sorry but I feel the same way about this that I do about Bernie or Bust, it is selfish and I do not support it.

This is not directed to you leftofcool but anyone on DU who will not vote for the Democratic nominee.
