Old question: "Coincidence ... or conspiracy"

New question: "Sneaky conspiracy ... or ridiculously obvious ham-fisted conspiracy"

I love that an old white Commie is causing a major problem in their party for a second time.

Wonder if Tlaib will be able to keep her mouth shut when the Dems screw over her guy.

What spooked?!

For pete’s sake. Bernie’s a cheap date. Cut a check for his next vacation home, and he’s yours, available to bail in a heartbeat.

Whatever is going is not about Bernie.

Kinda reminds me of MASH-the movie. Don Sutherland taunts Frank Burns about his sexcapades with Hot Lips and ends it by hollering: “He’s a sex maniac!”

Don’t get too worried, DNC. As the article noted, the superdelegates can still vote starting with the second ballot.

So all you guys need do is make sure that no one candidate comes to the convention with a majority of delegates. Here’s a suggestion. Tweak the Iowa votes to make it look like there is no clear winner.

Oh, wait. I see you’re already doing that. Well, then. Carry on.

Bernie is still on the payroll; they are just cultivating him to keep the radicals from leaving the party.

Bernie has the votes—he just has to figure out how to get somebody to count them accurately!

This explains the Iowa “snafu”.

They had better take their Bernie loss, grin and bear it. At this point, after all the Hillary, Biden and Deep State shenanigans, restoring the nominating power to super-delegates would finish them off as a party.

What needs to happen is what should have happened 20 - 25 years ago: party loyalists should have run the commies out of the party.

In the late 1990’s, I told my former brother-in-law, whose family was die-hard Democrats, “If you love the Democrat Party, you need vote against them and speak up so they will run off the leftists.”

Turns out those words were prophetic. He is a chiropractor and has been voting Republican almost 20 years now.

But the point is they’re not worried about Bernie, who’s a tool. And he’s cheap.

Whatever happened wasn’t about Bernie.

Bernie don’t care. He is just in it for the freebies and money. He made out like a bandit the last time around. He found him a good gig and every four years as long as he lives he will be back. It is his worshipers[supporters] that are getting screwed.

Georgia is an open primary state, so I'm thinking of voting for Comrade Bernie just to screw with the moron dems.

Super Delegates are what put Hillary on the ticket in 2016.
If they try this again, the Democrat Party will declare war on itself.

The Rats should just say that Bernie is not a member of the Rat party, and he can’t run as a Rat.

Bernie’s fans are not going to sit still for getting SCROOOOOOD a second time.

ANTIFA will be turning out at the convention in large numbers.

Can you say “1968”?
