Hillary Clinton: The ONLY Democrat candidate helping other Democrats get elected.

[oasis]

1. A Democratic victory in November should be an "all hands" effort.

[cherokeeprogressive]

2. Y.A.W.N.

[Live and Learn]

3. +10,000 nt

[Cali_Democrat]

8. Doesn't a President need a cooperative Congress to get their legislation through?

Or do you think that the only thing required is a magic wand?

[riversedge]

15. Well, you know--you also need that

magic fairy dust. yup. not just the wand.

[great white snark]

16. In your dreams is Bernie appealing to minorities?

Sleep now and leave the heavy lifting for the base.

[Indepatriot]

4. Does a "True Democrat"

Vote to give Bush the authorization to slaughter 100s of thousands innocents?
Scoff at the idea of free college?
Support DOMA until 2010?
Support Nafta, the TPP?
Lie about her opponent's proposed expansion of Medicare by stating he wants to dismantle it?
Support Fracking?
Take 21 million in speaking fees in 3 years knowing she will then run for President?

If that's a "True Democrat" then count me out...

5. Hillary doesn't share.....The first $5400 goes exclusively to Hillary

Only when she can't legally take one more dime....then she passes off the next $33,400 to her pal Debbie Wasserman Schultz at the DNC.

It ain't called the HILLARY victory fund for nothin'.

[riversedge]

14. What has Bernie shared so far ?? NOTHING is the answer.

[virtualobserver]

19. So they are even.....NOTHING is Hillary's answer, also.

She doesn't share a dime....she passes on money ONLY when she has taken the maximum amount.

The difference is that Hillary has a bunch of rich donors.....Bernie has an incredibly small number of people who have maxed out.....whereas Hillary gets most of her money from people who have maxed out.

[riversedge]

25. Those are the rules. If Bernie would fund raise-he would take

his share--then pass the rest along. Your 'logic' needs an upgrade

[virtualobserver]

27. Fundraising structured in the way that the "Hillary Victory Fund" is structured.....

is aimed exclusively at the rich.....and since Debbie Wasserman Schultz has shown herself willing to put her thumb on the scale for Hillary......The tiny number of wealthy donors that could donate more than $5400 to Bernie would be fools to hand that money to DWS.

[Human101948]

29. Your sad excuses for a corporate candidate need an upgrade...

You really believe that all those megadonors are not going to get a payback?

And if the money goes to DWS, don't be surprised when she uses it to support Republicans and their favorite causes. We've already seen it--

The warning signs have been there for years. As co-chair of the "Red to Blue" campaign to help increase Democratic seats in the House, she refused to support the Democrats running against three potentially vulnerable Florida Republicans - Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, Lincoln Diaz-Balart and Mario Diaz-Balart - because of her friendship with those Republicans.

31. "Those are the rules". I've seen that excuse at least 5 times from

Hillary supporters this week, always in defense of some odious, obviously-rigged-for-the-powerful system that they would certainly condemn if their candidate wasn't benefiting from it.

[Todays_Illusion]

6. Hillary only helps the Democratic candidates who endorse her.

[Lucinda]

12. Which are most of them.

[Todays_Illusion]

37. To me they add up to corporate conservatives, mostly all we have had since the 90s.

[kas125]

7. She does seem to be doing a lot to help

someone get elected - Bernie. The more she talks, the more she lies and the less likely people who hear her can stomach the idea of voting for her.

[ebayfool]

9. We can count on you guys to whoop this reused trope out every time Clinton screws up.

It's not working. You can't divert DUers that easily. Get a new squirrel.

[riversedge]

33. ah, you do not like my gentle post. shucks Have a nice day. sun is

shinning. Saw my first robin yesterday. And yes a few squirrels.

[NWCorona]

10. The Sanders campaign on this issue

"We remain happy to work with them," Sanders spokesman Michael Briggs said Saturday, when asked about joint fundraising efforts. "The party hasn't given us any dates for events."

[JackRiddler]

11. Does that include Rahm Emanuel?

[Lucinda]

13. KNR

[NurseJackie]

17. Down ticket victories are essential ...

... and Hillary understands it better than ANY other candidate.

[bigtree]

18. k&r

[Uglystick]

20. So does Bernie.

i guess the 192 Bernie Dems doesn't count?

[noamnety]

21. More disingenuous bullshit

Everyone here, yourself included, is fully aware that the DNC is actively working against Bernie - sending out sample ballots without his name, the whole superdelegate situation, etc.

Fundraising for the organization with DWS at the helm would be like asking taxpayers to bailout the banks that have been stealing from the taxpayers.

Oh, wait.

[vintx]

24. LOL, exactly!

This shit is too much.

Also, "Democrat voters"?

I will never get used to people who say that instead of DEMOCRATIC.

[Betty Karlson]

22. Net negative coattails: here we come!

Praise Nancy Reagan!

[RiverLover]

23. The purchase of the Democratic Party by Moneyed Interests is complete.

Thanks Hillary. Thanks so much.

[Iliyah]

26. If posters did some research, HRC is even helping Dems who didn't endorse her.

K & R

[Lizzie Poppet]

28. Money can't remotely offset her toxic effect on the downballot.

Hillary motivates the base like no other candidate...the Republican base. She de-motivates young voters, a left-leaning voting bloc. She tanks among independents, 40% of the electorate.

Pure downballot poison.

[ladjf]

30. IMO, every move and word by Candidate Clinton is calculated to

increase her personal wealth. Since many if not most other Dems are the same way, she might be
a true blue democrat.

She is "pedal to the metal" driving the Democratic money making machine.

[Autumn]

32. Oh well, I'm sure DWS will get around to giving Bernie some events, sooner or later.

Or not. I doubt only a handful of people care.

[NCTraveler]

34. K&R

[MattSh]

35. Seriously? This is what it's come down to?

Posting internet memes instead of actual news stories?

[Oilwellian]

36. When one misuses "Democrat" and "Democratic"

on this site, they are 99% of the time Republican trolls who are purposely misusing the words as a means to mock.

Oops.
