"Support Democrats, Don't Undermine Them" Downtown Hound May 2019 #201

Yeah, from the crowd who says "Vote Blue, No Matter Who" wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #202

for THIS we are gonna re elect trump? seriously? samnsara May 2019 #204

There are better fighters than Biden n/t wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #207

im not convinced samnsara May 2019 #252

Some hope for that if they can't have purity. BannonsLiver May 2019 #208

This goes beyond purity wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #211

Righhhhht BannonsLiver May 2019 #214

I swear, only Democrats do this to themselves wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #215

Thank God you're here to show us the way. BannonsLiver May 2019 #217

First Rule: Always Support Democrats wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #218

Glad to see you coming around. BannonsLiver May 2019 #220

Second Rule: Shun Those That Break First Rule wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #223

Right on! BannonsLiver May 2019 #226

Ummhmmm sheshe2 May 2019 #298

And so is Matt Longjohn, the Dem challenger wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #299

Did I miss the primary? Aren't we still choosing a general candidate? n/t TCJ70 May 2019 #210

Haven't you heard? Joe's the presumptive candidate wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #212

Couldn't care less. BlueTsunami2018 May 2019 #209

Wish Joe could've followed your advice wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #213

Still supporting him. bearsfootball516 May 2019 #216

Who cares. Polly Hennessey May 2019 #221

This stupid poll is Bernie supporters trying to discredit Joe calguy May 2019 #227

Point to where I'm a Bernie supporter wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #228

I just finished replying to a Bernie post shouting "disqualifying" and found that good sense emmaverybo May 2019 #229

But that would prevent virtue signaling and purity displays. BannonsLiver May 2019 #231

I am suspicious. Two DISQUALIFYING posts this morning, one upon the other, against Bernie emmaverybo May 2019 #246

The others were responses to this terrible OP. BannonsLiver May 2019 #247

You've got the order reversed...This one was posted, then a different poster... TCJ70 May 2019 #253

So this was a backatcha. It probably should be removed as well. All DISQUALIFIED postings emmaverybo May 2019 #264

No. This one (about Biden) was first. N/t TCJ70 May 2019 #265

I was corrected on that by two other members who said Bernie post was first. So I am still emmaverybo May 2019 #285

Mine was first wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #291

Solves that. nt emmaverybo May 2019 #292

Well...I only posted in one of the Bernie threads. TCJ70 May 2019 #306

Not a disqualifier in my book PBC_Democrat May 2019 #243

What has Biden gotten away with? mcar May 2019 #244

He was for forced birth before he was against it, for one wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #250

This is weak sauce. beaglelover May 2019 #255

Harry Cheadle, the author of the Vice hit-piece in the OP link, recommended 3rd party voting in 2016 lapucelle May 2019 #274

The piece is clearly satirical wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #280

No it isn't. lapucelle May 2019 #281

Any reasonable person who reads the quote you cited wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #283

Oh that Harry! lapucelle May 2019 #293

This further proves you're not interested in a good faith discussion wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #294

Alternately, perhaps the Harry Cheadle Vice hit piece you linked to is "satitical". lapucelle May 2019 #282

This is cringeworthy wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #284

Maybe you can add a voting option that reads: lapucelle May 2019 #289

He doesn't mock Stein. lapucelle May 2019 #286

... wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #290

You were done when you created the push poll still_one May 2019 #307

Brilliant, lapucelle! I was just looking up Harry and also saw he has a definite bias R B Garr May 2019 #309

And the gaslighting didn't work. lapucelle May 2019 #311

The OP is an epic fail. BannonsLiver May 2019 #312

And that one vote was from someone who was supporting Harris (not Biden) on May 10. lapucelle May 2019 #313

Yes, the gaslighting and shaming didn't work. R B Garr May 2019 #314

Attacking the candidate who has the biggest backing wasupaloopa May 2019 #308

"paid speech supporting rebuke" betsuni May 2019 #315

It doesn't help for me especially with the rest of his record JonLP24 May 2019 #316

You support a man who refused to get a job when his son was on Welfare LongtimeAZDem May 2019 #317

This is new information but I looked into it I don't have any issues with it JonLP24 May 2019 #318

Here: LongtimeAZDem May 2019 #319

He noticed with that 4% he did well in Burlington so ran for Mayor of Burlington JonLP24 May 2019 #320

It definitely looks bad loyalsister May 2019 #323

you change my mind about Biden ...... stonecutter357 May 2019 #324

Talk about bashing Democratic figures...complete with a poll !!! With friends like this.....nt UniteFightBack May 2019 #335

"With Friends Like These" wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #336

So fucking what with this OLD NEWS. Not interested and neither are the people who don't follow UniteFightBack May 2019 #338

We'll see how irrelevant it is wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #343

Oh yeah I'm sure we'll have plenty of time on the debate stage for everybody to say their piece.... UniteFightBack May 2019 #345

Someone will have to say it, if they want to be the candidate wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #347

If Biden wins the primary, saidsimplesimon May 2019 #329

I personally want a fighter for the Democratic candidate wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #337

I'm so sick of people and their bullshit dealbreakers when the country is burning down around them. UniteFightBack May 2019 #334

Didn't say I'll vote against him in the general wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #339

Yeah sharp elbows worked out great in 2016 huh? This is DIFFERENT....don't you get that? nt UniteFightBack May 2019 #342

This year will be worse. Look at the field. wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #346

Biden: "You will not hear me speak ill of another Democrat." OP are you listening? Doodley May 2019 #340

Me neither...I have not trashed other Dems in this forum...there is no reason for it...even UniteFightBack May 2019 #344

Not sure why you bring up Sanders wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #349

I repeat: wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #348

You give reasons to support Biden, because he"s happy to say when a lawmaker supports something good Doodley May 2019 #392

And that same lawmaker uses that praise wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #399

Fine. If you prefer to divide, carry on. Biden is a unity candidate as was Obama. You are welcome to Doodley May 2019 #400

Yes, I won't undermine a Democrat in favor of a repuke wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #401

You already have done. By saying Biden should be disqualified, you give succor to Trump supporters. Doodley May 2019 #411

So don't criticize Democrats wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #413

The OP loathes Biden BannonsLiver May 2019 #350

Final warning. wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #353

A good faith discussion? BannonsLiver May 2019 #354

Agreed LongtimeAZDem May 2019 #356

You Have Yet To Disprove The Contents wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #357

So not interested in a "good faith" discussion then. BannonsLiver May 2019 #358

Totally opposite of what I said wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #359

What am I supposed to "disprove"? BannonsLiver May 2019 #360

Biden gave a speech wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #361

Okay BannonsLiver May 2019 #362

Why don't you give a fuck? wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #363

Well BannonsLiver May 2019 #364

Funny wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #367

Yes, it is. BannonsLiver May 2019 #368

Think you mean this: wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #369

Why bring Killer Mike into this? BannonsLiver May 2019 #370

Try again wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #371

Try what again? BannonsLiver May 2019 #373

Try editing your post again wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #376

I see no need for that. The choice was appropriate. BannonsLiver May 2019 #379

Probably because he, like me, is not offended by people behaving as decent human beings LongtimeAZDem May 2019 #365

Voting to repeal ACA is not decent wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #366

Which he did not do. He made a speech to a business group, and praised the cancer support work of LongtimeAZDem May 2019 #372

You clearly misread what I said wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #374

And that you find evil in Biden saying nice things about someone, anyone, is reprehensible LongtimeAZDem May 2019 #375

It's really sad actually. BannonsLiver May 2019 #377

I feel like I need a shower just for replying LongtimeAZDem May 2019 #383

Really ugly nasty stuff meant to divide BannonsLiver May 2019 #384

All they have is their hate LongtimeAZDem May 2019 #385

Then don't wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #391

Biden gave a repuke campaign material wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #378

Like Biden, I refuse to lower myself to the level of the other side. LongtimeAZDem May 2019 #380

Playing smart is not "lowering yourself" wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #382

Is it by the individual response, or letter , or complete sentence? Peacetrain May 2019 #387

I just wanted to get a pulse from the Biden backers wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #389

Now that your question has been answered, perhaps you can answer mine. lapucelle May 2019 #393

I doubt people are worried about something that didn't happen, R B Garr May 2019 #396

His speech was written in repuke literature wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #398

More things that didn't happen. Now you're fabricating about R B Garr May 2019 #407

Try re-reading my post again wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #414

You should take your own advice and not embellish content, R B Garr May 2019 #416

You don't have to reply, you know wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #420

Biden wasn't there for his campaign so he didn't give R B Garr May 2019 #394

What a desperate fabrication. Biden didn't give him "campaign material" R B Garr May 2019 #395

I agree wiht you. should have been self delete just as you said. (my ipinion) trueblue2007 May 2019 #397

This is disturbing. I know he's friends w/Repubs, but this was going too far. nt Honeycombe8 May 2019 #404

Huh. welivetotreadonkings May 2019 #415

Sorry that happened to you wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #422

FYI: George II May 2019 #423

I doubt the OP would have any problem with that. BannonsLiver May 2019 #424

Can you read the signature? wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #425

What signature? BannonsLiver May 2019 #426

It's like talking to a wall. wellst0nev0ter May 2019 #427

What is? BannonsLiver May 2019 #428
