I think the Dem Establishment realizes a shitstorm is brewing for the National Convention.

[reformist2]

They are fast coming to the realization this is not going to be the serene coronation they hoped it would be. They haven't figured out what to do yet, but you can bet they are already figuring out ways to prevent Bernie's delegates from attending...

[Kelvin Mace]

1. Apparently, they want another Chicago 1968

[ProgressiveEconomist]

15. Sore losers

with no shame through the generations

[jwirr]

19. And from the sound of it that may already be in the works.

There are a lot of Bernie supporters who are heading for Philly who are going just to be there and are not official delegates. IMO they will do nothing unless like in Chicago it is a police riot or it is clearly stolen by Hillary and her super-delegates.

Do they have barricades at conventions?

[MFM008]

2. so you think rioting is a good thing?

chair throwing, cursing, death threats, Trumps specialties?
I would block anyone HRC or BS supporters from disrupting it.

[NV Whino]

5. The OP said no such thing

Anticipating and condoning are two different things.

[deathrind]

3. Considering...

The "establishment" is headed by DWS I don't think they have a clue as to what is coming.

[truedelphi]

4. I wlll walk on my hands and knees if need be.

Such corruption has to be accounted for!

Can you imagine if bullets had been fired at a Hillary Headquarters - it would be headline news for weeks. But that is happening to Sanders HQ's and apartments and no one is saying a thing except those who witness the events and of course, Bernie himself.

Our Corporate Owned, Pro War, Pro Middle Class Destruction media is so complicit in this. I am getting Hulu and then fuck the news stations and TV stations.

[JaneyVee]

6. It doesnt have to if Bernie fans keep it civil.

[dchill]

12. And watch our tone!

[reformist2]

13. You watch - they won't let us attend.

[Waiting For Everyman]

7. If they don't stop the repression they're going to have a disaster.

Because I don't see either Bernie or his supporters rolling over and playing dead for them. They need to get a clue, and quickly. The party behavior so far has been outrageous.

[Ohioblue22]

10. Rules are repressive and glib

[Waiting For Everyman]

11. Rules are what they ignored.

[timlot]

8. Oh God. Bernie lost. Less delegates. (Super or Pledged) Less Popular vote.

Its like the twilight zone around here.

[cliffordu]

18. Doesn't change the truth of it:

How many people were purposely disenfranchised? How many state democratic committees were paid off last April?

9. The spin doctors have started with NV, they are making the foundation for

the biggest heist they are planning to pull at the convention. Which if they pull it off and things get nasty they will blame yet again the Bernie supporters for it. Totally disregarding their deceit...like they did this weekend.

[HereSince1628]

14. They've planted their rows, and now are sort of stuck with them

It's not like they don't have a place to go...their plan seems to be aimed at republicans

[intheflow]

16. Getting their security ducks in a row.

That's how they roll these days.

[CobaltBlue]

20. intheflow—That picture makes me really inspired to vote for Democratic Establishment corruption.

It warms my heart.

[cliffordu]

17. And I think the one way they

Can rid themselves of pesky anti-war, anti-oligarchy pests is to either provoke another '68 convention or simply talk about how victimized they've been by the Berners so far.

The progressives will be as universally despised as we were in '68....
Yippie.

Chair throwing my skinny old white ass.

[jwirr]

21. Haven't seen you around for a while, glad to see you back.

And yes, we progressives need to learn from 68 and try to avoid what happened then because we were blamed for the total thing. Even the election lose after the establishment kicked us out.

We are smarter than they are and we need to act like it. Do not push the buttons before Bernie gets a chance to act. Let him lead. Bernie is the real deal and he will know what to do. I trust him.
