This was disgusting. There was no violence. There was a helluva a lot of justifiable anger.

Unfortunately I'm pretty sure this election may cost me my membership at DU. Bill Clinton was the worst thing that ever happened to the Democratic Party. I should have voted for Perot. There used to be a pro-worker and a pro-business party and Clinton changed that. I can't vote for that shit again.

I have the sick feeling they will find a way to keep the Bernie delegates out of the convention.

I guess I always thought of DU as more of the small d democrat than the large D. That supporting the will of the people, on DU and generally, was more important that mindlessly supporting anyone with a large D behind their name.

Bill Clinton did more damage to American workers than Reagan would have dared to do. Hillary is completely on board with the same neo-liberal bullshit. There is no way I'm voting for that shit again.
