Can I get a promise from both the Hillary Clinton and Obama supporters?

[Marr]

If your candidate loses the general election, will you refrain from blaming the left this time and place the blame where it belongs? That is, on the Republican-lite, triangulating, right wing of party?

This is important, because if you don't properly assign the blame this time, we'll only repeat this mistake in the future. You'll argue that your candidate's thumping is proof that the Democratic Party needs to more thoroughly ignore the left, and... well, it's just an endless cycle.

1. Wrong Forum

3. This isn't really about the primary.

[Dogmudgeon]

2. Where the blame lies:

Us.

--p!

10. I agree

It's the American people voting in both the Primary and the GE.

4. Wrong board

I think you meant to log into the Pigsty.

[Marr]

5. So no promise then?

[NoPasaran]

13. Honestly, I don't blame the Left for anything

It's way too small and whiny to have any measurable political weight to speak of.

6. So We Have Lost Already?

You almost sound like you want a GOP in the White House.:wtf:

8. It would make many here

very happy. They think they'd be proven right. If ONLY we'd nominated Kucinich....

[Marr]

9. Yes, that's right-- if you don't cheer wildly for Hillary, it's because you want to lose.

Why does that sound so familiar?

11. Beats me

I never heard anyone say that. I sure never have.

Edit: I see you're another one who argues with avatars.

12. MF:

I sure hope not!:banghead:

7. never!

Triangulate uber alles!

14. Why Would They? They Want to Move to the Right

It's like two birds with one stone for them. Demonize the left (anti-corporate greed) and move the party and general public to the right (more cozy with corporate America).

15. I think the new 'left'

consists of anyone that states a fact that goes against the preferred truth. It doesn't seem to matter what the bullshit du jour is. Until it is deemed okay to accept the truth, those that dare utter another possibility are affixed a label to be vilified and marginalized.
