That's just the last desperate throws of Bernie's hardcore supporters. Every politician has them and the closer to the fringe of mainstream politics they are, the less willing to admit defeat they become. Remember, it's not Bernie's fault that he lost. It's never Bernie's fault.
Nina Turner is like the least qualified person to be VP on the face of the Earth. Why is she even a thing?

Sanders supporters fascination with Nina Turner is fucking insane. Yes, lets put someone who's only served as a state senator on the ticket...
This is why I, Slavoj Zizek, sleep with a picture of Stalin over my bed
Huh?

Hope not, definitely setting up to at least see an embarrassing floor vote.
The putin-puppet wikishits are planning on releasing more emails throughout the convention. I doubt anything of bigger importance will come out but their goal is to keep the narrative of division among democrats going.
Sorry, I didn't see your post a few above mine until I posted. I was hoping someone would freak about the Nina Turner and voting stuff.
post-ironic stalinism is acceptable
I'll just say this. I assume people on the fence or Independents aren't looking at wikileaks to make their voting decisions. There may be a bit of noise at the DNC but overall with their stable of speakers that'll probably overshadow a lot.
Warren, Michelle. I would imagine Sanders reinforces his endorsement and says Trump can't be president. Then you have Bill, Barack, Kaine, Clinton and many other speakers. I would imagine that would overshadow alot as far as new cycles go.
There's a possible compromise on superdelegates incoming, let's see if it passes.

They also have clinton foundation docs.
Also if they got into Clintons email expect an October surprise attempt (not that the emails will say anything, just the fact that they were hacked) the later js pure speculation btw
I'm about to go take a walk, get some dinner, and catch pokemans before coming home and watching cartoons late into the night. So no.

They will probably have an excerpt on the evening news.
Kaine is such a smiley dude. Good trait for a politician, I'm very frowney lol

A deal has been reached at the DNC rules committee -- a commission will be set up that will reduce the number of superdelegates.
Under this amendment, which still needs to be approved, only elected officials could be superdelegates. That's a two-thirds downsizing.
Here's the amendment that's about to be voted on at the DNC rules committee
The commission's report would still need to be approved by the DNC, but the Sanders team is confident that this will get done.
"We have to hang together, or we might hang separately," says a Bernie Sanders delegate from New York. A bit of unity breaking out here.

I'm not worried either. Having Bernie reiterate our mission for November on Monday should help a great deal. And if he is peeved about this, we might get a hint from his Meet the Press appearance. But at this point, I'm safely convinced that he's on-board.
{I was at a family gathering all day. Catching-up on the Clinton-Kaine rally. WOW. Some of the praise I've read from various mediafolk has been unnervingly effusive. Not really used to this. And I love all of these mentions of Virginia being padlocked.. rawr.}

Fuck Bernie Sanders. He wouldn't be bitching about super delegates if he was winning.
Well it's not a nothingburger, they doxxed thousands of citizens who donated to the DNC
It's actually super fucked up they published it without at least covering up peoples' SSN and stuff
(I know you were referring to whether the leak was incriminating to the dems)
I meant the delegates voting on this crap.

CNN thrives on Red vs Blue Crossfire and the horse race narrative
Soon we'll be calling Virginia the Chastity Belt.

Look at those peasant chairs. Queen, wat r u doing?
Only elected officials would be superdelegates? That's not the worst idea honestly.
People who vote in primaries (and in the UK, leadership elections), are not the general populace. Corbyn is at the same time incredibly popular with the membership base and yet appallingly, astonishingly unpopular with the country as a whole - labour are facing electoral obliteration because he's doing *that* badly.
The politicians trying to remove Corbyn *are* serving the will of the people.
I know you already got dragged for this but I just got home and I was reading through the thread and I was finding hard to believe Nina Turner was being reasonable. LOL that the natural order seems to not have been upset.
ayyyyy lmao at all of the above
You can't say the former and then do the later. Sorry.
Yes it is as much as you want to tell yourself otherwise
Yeah we more a democratic republic than a full on democracy.
Not really? As has been already said, actual firing squads are a long shot but between actual policies implemented and the further legitimization of white supremeacy, the lives of minorities could significantly decrease in quality.

I actually think that compromise is a good thing! I would support that.
I think that's a great compromise
Sounds alright to me. If it makes Sander's supporters happy than even better.

That compromise looks fine

Wait she was only a state senator ? I thought she was in the legit Senate lol
I'm just not sure I want to make any compromise until I see Bernie tomorrow on MTP. If he's not going to support, any compromise short of killing DWS might not matter.
She's a one time state senator from ohio.
