141. DU Hillary Group Says Won't ALLOW A Win

Wed Feb 10, 2016, 10:40 PM

Feb 2016

It shocking what they say. 90% of the comments there say they dont care how many votes Bernie gets and he will not be ALLOWED to win. They say its OUR problem if we don't like it because super delegates are in the rules and no matte what the commoners vote they will never be allowed a victory. They are literally laughing about it. The smugness goes beyond even how Martin Shkreli has been behaving. If the majority of voters read these comments they would come with pitchforks not just for republicans. In fact, I thought people got banned for the type of comments questioning party affiliation that I see there. And it was everyone...not just some...and all familiar commenters that flag everyone on other threads. They have no qualms about sinking our Party's reputation. I guess entitlement is contagious.
