Is it me or are they completely losing their shit today?

[Nyan]

Bernie supporters are horrible -that's a familiar one from H supporters. But now politico's whining about it.
And now they're trying to make a case that Bernie's hanging out with bankers.

Are they completely losing their shit?
I mean, that's as prepostrous as it gets -it's like claiming H is secretely pro-life.
Does it have anything to do with the fact that she's about to be crushed in NH?

Iowa momentum. 3 million raised in one day. New Hampshire poll numbers. Endorsements coming in. And now, new national poll has him eating away Hillary's lead by 30 points.

Yep. I guess maybe they should be losing their shit.

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

1. She's going down in flames, so ever more ridiculous slime is getting tossed around.

She sees 2008 all over again.

[Jenny_92808]

32. + 1

It is very apparent who is misbehaving on the dem side.

[CountAllVotes]

65. yep

Its like watching an old movie you've seen 100 times already. It's A Wonderful Life not!

[Rosa Luxemburg]

81. yes like 2008 all over again

[artislife]

2. You know how in the movies

When everyone realizes that the elevator is plunging downward?


Yeah, that.

[sarge43]

7. They can't remember if it's jump or fall on the floor, so

they lose their shit.

There is a certain entertainment value.

[merrily]

60. That was an LOL (by me, not merely by my keyboard, though both are "literal").

[Bernin4U]

23. Rocking

-ass analogy.

[EmperorHasNoClothes]

3. Throwing piles of shit at the wall, hoping something sticks

[Bubzer]

45. Yup. Some of it is backfiring though. Here's one such example.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/1280111028

[frylock]

55. Nice work!

[TBF]

4. Kibbutz! Speaking Fees! Bad Hair! (wait, I made up the last one ...)

they are seriously just throwing shit at the wall to try to get something to stick. They've definitely seen the polls.

[dae]

20. Nice!

[HooptieWagon]

54. Not just any kibbutz...

A SOCIALIST kibbutz!

[TBF]

72. I love when they do that -

like "scientific" polls! (Kibbutz is socialist by definition - and they especially were socialist back in the 60s when idealistic young folks were traveling to Israel to try communal living).

[farleftlib]

77. That was the best

It felt like a flamefest until I saw that post and then I realized the comedy value of all that desperation.

[grasswire]

5. Tweety was losing his.

He can't believe the Bernie surge. Can't understand it. It would be amusing to watch him explode if it weren't so pathetic.

[ladjf]

9. Tweety is a "pea brain' who has grossly over reached his actual talent level. nt

[HubertHeaver]

67. His talent level is actually receding.

[dae]

22. Chris A$$hat Matthews has been out of touch with

reality for years.

[Jenny_92808]

34. Yep

You got it right grasswire.

[bvf]

40. He's the single biggest reason

that I don't miss MSNBC. There are others, but he tops the list.

[LovingA2andMI]

47. Tweety Still Has That "tingle" Going Down His Leg...

It's The Tingle Of Stupidly.....

[TBF]

73. Feel the bern, Tweety,

feel the bern!!

[dana_b]

6. well they already laughed, now they're at the "attacking" stage

this will go on for months - until he wins.

[billhicks76]

42. Like Ghandi Said

[pa28]

8. Nope, full spectrum attack mode.

The new round of smears will backfire just like the last round did. They are in a bubble and they just don't get it.

[nc4bo]

10. When all you've got in your arsenal is shit, you fling it.

Doesn't matter if it gets on their hands or the consequences of back splatter.

Just fling fling fling.

[olddots]

11. these ass wipes know that if they didn't sound like fools

Nobody would pay attention to them .Tweety's whole career is about being an annoying shmuck we watch to get an adrenalin buzz .

[MsMAC]

12. All the bernbots I've encountered are horrible! That's

what swayed my vote/support to HRC. Feeling #BERNEDOUT

[Hiraeth]

13. Welcome to the Bernie Sanders Group. Enjoy your stay.

[Warren DeMontague]

15. Cool story bro

[MissDeeds]

19. And in three, two, one

[leftcoastmountains]

21. Strange reason to vote.

[libdem4life]

29. Perhaps you should learn to think for yourself.

[Trajan]

30. Cool

Bye

[MissDeeds]

35. Why is that poster still here?

Maybe I should hit the 'bye' button too.

[mindwalker_i]

39. Thing is, I could see that being the case

The Hillary supports seem whacked out to me, but they're probably feeling like their a severe minority and that we drive them nuts. More.

[billhicks76]

44. Lol

I was viciously attacked here by Hillary supporters for a long time. Long before I ever considered Bernie. It was for opposing status quo mass incarceration and recording everyone's emails, texts, GPS coordinates and phone calls. Very eye opening.

[frylock]

57. Core values. Find them.

[TBF]

75. Are you in the wrong group or what ...

Feel the Bern!!!!

[nc4bo]

76. LMMFAO!! What a pantload. nt

[LiberalElite]

83. It wasn't her policies or her past -

it was Sanders supporters. You're for HER because of US. OH that makes a LOT of sense.

[Warren DeMontague]

14. If she loses this thing, the meltdowns will be epic.

I mean, seriously.

[LovingA2andMI]

49. Academy Award Winning Epic....

Looking Something Like So:

[Ned_Devine]

52. Yeah. That will be a wild scene...I'm looking forward to it

[frylock]

58. Hoping we get to read all about it, like another 'Game Changer'

[ladyVet]

80. Yeah. I'll have to clear my ignore list so I can see it. Fun times. Fun times. nt

[MisterP]

16. guess the commenting died down on this article and they came back

http://www.salon.com/2016/02/02/bernie_bros_stop_this_meme_your_dumb_joke_about_hillarys_music_taste_isnt_funny_its_predictably_sexist/

[Peregrine Took]

17. They have thier backs to the wall and 'are lashing out via their surrogates...

gonna be a wild weekend lobbing stuff at Bernie from all corners.

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

18. And a double yup.

I was just told Bernie supporters are all lazy loafers (with high post counts!) who just want 'free stuff'.

They're not even hiding the fact that they're Republicans in really bad Democratic disguise now, just trotting out the same attacks they've always used against Democrats.

[Jenny_92808]

36. Yep

That is what they do.

[mhatrw]

24. Stop kibbutzing about this! Hillary is the real victim here!

[99th_Monkey]

25. Yes, they are loosing it. Today a DU OP was whining about a nurses' union supporting Bernie

because it has a pac that ran some ads for him...

and .. you may have guessed it.. the narrative from this was "SEE! Bernie LIED when he said
he 'doesn't have a Super-Pac!!!" oh the shame.

[Akamai]

48. Actually, I think that was sarcasm. Kind of like saying those who

contributed $10 to Bernie now own him.

[Akamai]

53. Sorry-- I think you are correct. I just saw another post

on DU that seemed serious about the nurse's PAC proving that Bernie is not all pure himself.

Idiots! But some people seem to think that a group of nurses independently contributing money to Bernie means that Bernie himself is corrupt.

Idiotic! Pathetic!

Go, Bernie!!!

[frylock]

61. These are the same people that claim the custodial staff at Goldman Sachs..

is donating to Hillary's campaign.

[Bernin4U]

26. Oh man, the taboos being broken

On this thread.

Full. Win.

[winter is coming]

27. Good thing I've got most of them on ignore. nt/

[CharlotteVale]

31. It's deflection. There's no way they can defend her so they attack Bernie supporters.

[Jenny_92808]

37. You are correct!

[TheProgressive]

33. "They" have to throw as much sh*t on the wall as possible, because...

...they (Clinton and the oligarchy) know they are losing.

The People are with Senator Sanders and they know it...

[in_cog_ni_to]

38. They see the writing in the wall. She's going to lose after

their constant preaching how inevitable she is, was all for naught!

She's going down in flames. A tie (most likely a win) in Iowa, NH crush, National polls that look REALLY bad, women don't support her, men don't support her, Millennials don't support her and Independents don't support her. She can't win.

That's why evoting machines are so dangerous. Bernie must win BIG. The Clinton's WILL hack the machines. David Brock works for them

PEACE
LOVE
BERNIE

[Yeager29]

43. My fears exactly

A stolen election and the people's will thwarted. As the message gets past the MSM like the Clinton News Network, folks are coming to Bernie from all over. I just hope he has a good protective detail. He'll need it.

[Nyan]

66. Yep. An outright rigging is not beneath David Brock.

Last edited Sat Feb 6, 2016, 02:57 AM - Edit history (1)

And when push comes to shove, I don't believe it is beneath Hillary Clinton to unleash her attack dog. I have absolutely no illusion about her and her 3rd-way ilk. They WILL try to rig the election if they see no other way to win.
We have to put that into equation when we think of winning strategies.

[in_cog_ni_to]

78. Bernie needs MASSIVE voter turnouts -TO BIG TO STEAL -

Because I'm sure that's their plan. If he has massive voter turnout, they won't be able to flip the minimal, non conspicuous amount they need to steal the election.

I'm hoping Anonymous, from our tech generation, has their eyes on that ball because we all know what's going to go down.

PEACE
LOVE
BERNIE

[NRaleighLiberal]

41. I'm not seeing it all that much here ....

because my ignore list is now well over 150. It does make DU rather pleasant!

[Akamai]

56. How do you put people on ignore? I have no real intent

at this point of doing that, but...

[NRaleighLiberal]

63. you click the little figure with the red X to the right of the name.

You can manage your list in the My Accounts selection at the top.

[Akamai]

70. Thanks! I may need that if things get too personal in the

future. It's a long ways before the primaries are over.

[Bubzer]

46. :D

?w=500&c=1

[HooptieWagon]

50. Did y'all see the kibbutz thread before it was hidden?

Omg! Bernie visited a socialist kibbutz! This is Hugh!!!1!!1!! And it was some kind of commie kibbutz!
Red-baiting and anti-semitism all rolled into one disgusting epic fail. I'm pissed it was alerted and hidden, there was great potential for entertainment and mirth. It should have been left for posterity.

[jillan]

64. Did that get hidden? LOL!!!! That blew me away. I figured the OP must live in Claire McCaskill's

district

[SoapBox]

51. They just keep throwing that shit...and hope something sticks.

But...it won't.

Go Bernie!

[Admiral Loinpresser]

59. It will only get nastier

until she concedes. That could take months. Plus she may be less willing to concede this time because she must suspect this is her last rodeo.

[jillan]

62. Can I just say thank you to the Bernie supporters & their sense of humor on those threads.

Some of the replies coming out of this group are hilarious.

I think that's we need to do when we come across threads that are about the nerve of Bernie's Senate Pin.

Let's stick together and have some fun.

[RichVRichV]

68. First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.

I don't see them ignoring us or laughing at us anymore. They're in all out attack mode and I'm loving every second of it. It keeps blowing up in their face when confronted with the truth.

[djean111]

69. What is, I admit, kinda entertaining to me, are the posts/OPs from the authoritarian types.

They don't get into issues or anything like that, really, they just announce who they are supporting, and then get all pissy and pouty (and verbose) when we just keep on supporting Bernie. When they told us to support Hillary. Because they support Hillary.
It is like they are fucking astonished that no one is doing what they are told. I don't think they get this open internet thingy at all.

[Warpy]

71. I wouldn't say she's going down in flames, she's been strategizing and collecting endorsements, big

donor cash, and super delegates for a long time. Sanders has simply taken it to the people. There is a huge difference in their campaigns and she can still win this, although she needs to take a bit more control of the bigger mouths in her organization.

Still, I'm not only seeing a duplication of Hillary War I in 2008 when people got thoroughly sick of her more rabid partisans and of her incredibly flawed campaign staff that year. They're the ones who defeated her, really.

I just hope we don't see them turning into the same sourpusses they did in 2008. I still know a few who consider themselves Republicans now.

[TBF]

74. Sanders handled that like a master -

"Yes, Hillary, you have the establishment" And then smiles, because everyone HATES the establishment right now - on both sides.

[TBF]

79. Yes - which means

we need to avoid the poo-flinging and stay on point. ISSUES, issues, issues.

[DaveT]

82. I had thought that Sanders had a shot

But I assumed that Hillary would run a good campaign. It is still possible that she could revamp her pitch and regain the advantage.

But it is starting to look that she is incapable of putting forward a positive message. Once "I'm inevitable" collapsed, she stupidly and stubbornly decided to Go Negative.

The numbers are piling up with a brutal verdict -- bad idea to trash Bernie.


She should just quit talking about Sanders and instead relate her vision for the future. Of course shed'd have to have one -- but hell, she has enough money to buy one. Her support is melting because she thinks offering to keep things the way they are is somehow appealing.

If she doesn't get her head out of her ass soon, Sanders could be the one to wrap it up early.


We can't count on that, but jeez her campaign really is embarrassingly bad.
