Losing the last 8 out of 9 is rough.

[Bonobo]

But I don't think it is really even about Hillary and Bernie as people so much as it is about the people of the United States demanding a more fair and egalitarian country, one with a future.

They are voting for the candidate that they trust, and that is Bernie because he has been consistent on the issues for decades. He is perceived as an honest broker of the facts that doesn't tailor his opinions to his audience like Hillary does.

People want a fair shake and they want a President who understands that the environment is in crisis. Between Bernie and Hillary there is a real difference on this issue -and people know that Ms. Fracking is going to be business as usual.

Also, the economy. Bernie is for the regular guy. He has always been for social and economic justice and that's what regular people want.

Unfortunately Ms. Money Bags is never going to be viewed with trust or as "one of us" and the recent Primary results show how most people feel.

1. it's an epic contest btwn salvaging our democracy, or losing it forever

[JonLeibowitz]

2. FYI, this was alerted on..

will report the results when I get them.

[revbones]

3. They've been on an alert fest lately.

I got a hide for supposedly using a right-wing source on YouTube of Hillary herself saying she was under sniper fire.

5. It's like this

[NuclearDem]

4. Losing the popular vote by 2.5 million is rough.

So is losing the delegates by 688.

15. With the exception of the Bible Belt, she's the far inferior candidate.

Just admit the obvious.

[NuclearDem]

16. And in nearly every major battleground state, your candidate is inferior.

Virginia, North Carolina, Ohio, Florida, and in a couple of weeks, Pennsylvania.

[mhatrw]

17. Inferior in what way? Against Trump? Against Cruz? Against Kasich?

Show me the polls that show that.

6. Jury results... (I was #5)

On Sat Apr 9, 2016, 09:52 PM an alert was sent on the following post:

Losing the last 8 out of 9 is rough.

REASON FOR ALERT

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

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

The name calling is just getting ridiculous. Divisive and disruptive flamebait serves no purpose here.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Sat Apr 9, 2016, 09:57 PM, and the Jury voted 2-5 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: uh, no.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Alert abuse. Good luck with your next fishing expedition for a pro-Ms. Money Bags jury, to squelch dissent. Come to think of that, with her pro-surveillance, anti-encryption, anti-free speech agenda, it makes quite a bit that you support her! Cheers, and I do hope your alert privileges are revoked.
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #7 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given

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

8. "and I do hope your alert privileges are revoked."

The irony is that comment is probably actually going to get your jury privileges revoked.

[JonLeibowitz]

9. Why? A 0-7 jury always results in revoked alert privileges for 24 hours.

[NuclearDem]

10. The admins have been making it very clear that obvious partisan jury votes

will likely result in that poster losing their jury privileges.

[JonLeibowitz]

11. My jury vote was not partisan. The alert was completely unfounded.

[Tarc]

7. Not rough at all when we're talking about open caucuses and primaries

Hey, Bernie had a good run in mostly low-delegate red states, so, kudos.

Now that we're back to actual blue states, the party's just about winding down.

[HerbChestnut]

12. Yeah...

Those wins in Washington and Wisconsin were clearly meaningless.

[TheFarseer]

13. They won today

Just ask them. They've won almost all the state's based on supers. It's like being forced to run a marathon in cowboy boots and the other guy has Nikes. You're Just not supposed to win.

[StevieM]

14. Actually, most of these recent results have been from caucuses, not primaries.

Caucuses have never been the type of contest that Hillary does well in.

Wisconsin was a primary, as were Democrats abroad. The rest were all caucuses, and were in states that were long believed to be favorable to Bernie. The calendar favored Sanders, just like it favored Clinton at an earlier point.

I think Hillary will be feeling a lot less roughed over if she wins New York, and especially if she does well in the April 26 states (PA, CT, RI, MD, DE).

Of course, I realize that Sanders supporters believe that he will win NY. We'll have our answer in 10 days.
