False prophet- load of crap
Okay, I am a news junkie and start my day by looking at the various sites for political news, and guess what load of garbage I found.
Please take a look and do your best to discredit and counter act this moron.
http://thehill.com/opinion/markos-moulitsas/274618-markos-moulitsas-sand...
This narrative is garbage and so incorrect. I guess this is what happens when someone is on the Clinton payroll and working for the establishment.
Update:
Thank you, not sure if it is the work of this community but within the last hour or so, the comments are pouring in on this article to point of the truth regarding Markos and providing great data point of this false propaganda. That is all I want is for the truth to shine thru the lies and bs.
By the way, sorry if I am a little passionate about this matter, but we need to have our voices heard. The establishment needs to realize that they cannot continue to pee all over us and tell us to enjoy the rain.

Spot on- I freaking agree
I was not happy when I saw this piece of crap article.

Wish it was worded we wouldn't vote for, but still a good place to start.
CentY has a great response to the "tone it down" comments, and how really dumb it was for the Clinton Campaign to expect any of the people supporting Bernie Sanders to "switch" to vote for her if she were ( dog forbid!) the nominee.
Still don't think DWS/DNC/DLC/Clintons realize this is not a "business as usual" election. We knew she'd support Obama in 2008, she had no choice. She knew she'd run again for POTUS and had to keep herself politically viable. Not so her bff, Lynn de Rothschild, she of the Lincoln Bedroom Sleepovers, who started Democrats for McCain. It's not 2008. We have nothing to gain by helping the Clintons keep the Democratic party in their clutches!
Can't argue SCOTUS anymore, when Obama goes with Merrick Garland. Seriously, that argument is off the table.
Still see a twofer - if it's Trump. Destroys the Republican party, and gets the Democratic Party out of the clutches of the Clintons. Short term consequence, long term gain. Coalition created around Bernie Sanders coalesces, gets stronger, larger, better funded, doesn't sell out.
If you follow the link, he will get credit for driving

That is true, but is crap
This is negative yellow journalism and it needs to be called.
I do not care about his fucking site, but when he starts spreading lies elsewhere that is the problem. That is why I posted so we can call him out on it. Post all his previous negative Hillary statements in the comments section to embarrass and discredit him.
THIS!

Thank you. We just need to speak the truth and point of the falsehoods and outright lies.
Fair enough.

for understanding, I do not dwell or think about the old site or him. I just hate the fact he tries to peddle his crap elsewhere- thinking he is all that. By the way, did not mean to be harsh about it.
Ugh
Making us look like desperate and delusional idealist is NOT a recipe for us to follow to endorse your flawed candidate. I don't care HOW much they force her down our throats.

I think it's pretty clear who is desperate. Hint: it's not us.
agree
Before the late unpleasantness at the Great Orange Satan, my issues with HRC were re policy. With all the identity politics trash coming from her side, seeking to divide us along racial and gender lines, it has become personal. Not going to vote for her.
Who cares what he thinks? n/t
There is no justice. There can be no peace.
We know the truth-and must stop the spread of lies
I do not give a shit about him (I had to rewrite this line several times)! What I care about is he is selling crap to everyone else, and we must call it out.
What's he getting in return
for the loads of manure he's shoveling for Hillary?
Note that calling for Bernie to drop out effectively means disenfranchising everyone who hasn't had a chance to vote in a primary yet. No Markos, we're not letting SC and MS pick our nominee while telling NY and CA to STFU.
So much for "Crashing the Gates". He needs to write a new book entitled "Locking the Gates, How Access to Power Corrupts".
How is he any different than a high-priced hooker?
"Obama promised transparency, but Assange is the one who brought it."

that would be the question
He is driving away a substantial portion of his customer base, and he had to know that would happen. I doubt he is too rich to care, and there is plenty of time to campaign for the GE later. Did he get a "grant" from the Clinton Foundation to "study" political blogging on the internet? A "promise" of some kind perhaps?
On the other side, Ana Kasparian
from The Young Turks had a great piece in Raw Story yesterday about Hillary backing out of a NY debate. In what has got to be a monumental surprise, Clinton has "evolved" on this, and will debate. I don't want fireworks, I want blood in the gawddamn water. Give 'em hell, Bernie!

This is the guy who said Bernie wouldn't break 30% nationally
He cherry picks and takes out of context pieces of information to push a narrative. I don't see how he can state his path to pledged delegate victory is growing 'ever-narrower' when he outperformed on Saturday significantly. Arizona took a bit of a chunk out of that, but after all was said and done, he cut her lead in pledged delegates by about 20%. The first half of the primary was front-loaded with a lot of Clinton-favorable territory and 43% of the pledged delegates still remain.
He ignores the fact that Bernie himself stated that Super Delegates are free to vote as they see fit, he only suggested that in states where he had won those Super Delegates may wish to reconsider their position. Markos whines about Sanders supporters specifically, as if Sanders supporters have any say on how Bernie runs his campaign. Gotta love it when an author blames the candidate for the views of anonymous online posters.
I didn't see where Devine stated all Super Delegates should switch over, but then the author never cites the source of his information, merely pecks out a few loose quotes here and there. I think the Sanders campaign overall point is that in states where Bernie has won, they would make the case that these Super Delegates should switch to represent the will of the people. The Sanders campaign got into the race late, and was up against a major disadvantage in terms of having enough time to get the message out in conjunction with a dismissive media and Clinton's establishment support.
There is a valid case to be made from this regardless, it doesn't mean that the Sanders campaign is attempting to suppress the will of the people.
Call his ass out
That is why I posted the link, reveal the truth and it makes him look like bum he is.
Tell the party how you feel
I live in Washington State. I sent the state Dems an email today, (they have a website,) telling them that I wouldn't vote for anyone in office who is a super-delegate that doesn't vote for Bernie. Bernie got 73% of the votes in the Dem Caucus, including mine and my wife's.
Feel the Bern!
It is a load of crock. n.t
"Religion is what keeps the poor from murdering the rich."--Napoleon
I agree
When others look to him as being an expert it makes me laugh and it is false. That is why I shared this information so we can fight his lies with truth.
That is why I am here to learn the truth and to fight the darkness. No more will I just sit ideally by and let others dictate the false narrative and sell loads of bullshit.
Kos is an establishment asshole. Period.

Testing...1, 2, 3,
There once was a site called DailyKos
With an arrogant prick as the boss
He told his reading people
To become HRC sheeple
And thus turned his place into dross
Gëzuar!!
from a reasonably stable genius.
I don't think Bernie should go after super delegates
...unless he gets over 50% of the popular vote.
That said, Dailykos has not lived up to its mantra. It is now and probably always was, a site for DLC candidates. Better candidates supporters need not apply unless Kos approves of your choice. I don't need someone telling me who to support, especially if they are a party operative.
Bernie won Utah 80-20
Bernie won in the Utah caucuses 80%-20%. One of Utah's super-delegates (our Dem party chair!) committed in advance to supporting the caucus winner. I sent him a thank-you e-mail. Two others are for Hillary (they refuse to say why) and another remains uncommitted at last report. Utahns are lobbying them to represent us. This is a process known as "democracy."
"We've done the impossible, and that makes us mighty."
Update
OK, another Utah super-delegate is supporting Bernie. The one who said he was uncommitted. He got a barrage of e-mails and phone calls. Now the goal is to flip the two who declared for Hillary before the Utah caucuses.
"We've done the impossible, and that makes us mighty."
Or...
... unless the FBI investigation goes south on her.
I think there's a lot of "between the lines" talk around super-delegates switching that involves this. He can't even look like he's hinting at it, but it's there like an 800 pound gorilla in the room.
"Polls don't tell us how well a candidate is doing; Polls tell us how well the media is doing." ~ Me
Definitely!
I don't actually think the investigation will go anywhere (when is the last time a govt official was held accountable for anything, by anyone?), on the other hand, a strong showing by Bernie may fill that gap if necessary.
"Obama promised transparency, but Assange is the one who brought it."
The stuff about the Clinton Foundation
is awful. It looks like a blatant influence peddling and pay-to-play scheme. I'd love to see a complete, time-stamped list of donors.
"Obama promised transparency, but Assange is the one who brought it."

Yes and any pertinent legislation or executive actions. Also any lobbying by anyone associated with the Clinton Foundation for any donors benefit.
Speaking fees
I'm waaaaay more concerned about the speaking fees thing. THAT'S influence peddling - to the point of being blatant corruption.
Feel the Bern!
Follow Markos around the Web
Wherever Markos pops up outside his privately-owned, no-free-speech-allowed website, let's follow him and comment. Always provide a link to caucus99percent.com. How can he get away with pretending to be an objective observer of the primary campaign?
"We've done the impossible, and that makes us mighty."
Freaking AMEN
I am tired of him getting props for all our support and hard work. Lets call him out. Shine a light on his lies.
Sell Out
Beware the bullshit factories.
What I find hillarious is...
this line:
How can he state something like this while calling on Senator Sanders to essentially drop out of the race? Shouldn't the rest of the country have a say in the process before this happens?
At the end of the day
The Democratic Party had no intention of supporting Bernie. From the debate schedule, to the website integrity issue, trotting out all of the DNC operatives of color to support Clinton, blaming Bernie for not supporting down ballot initiatives, it's really been despicable.
I have never thought Bernie would win because too many self important assholes in the party would see to it that he does not. HRC is an establishment candidate who has never had a lead she couldn't squander. So when she gets to be underwater in October in the polling, don't come to me. You guys had the chance to embrace someone with FDR values and embraced Bill Clinton's...nice going.
Why would the DNC support Bernie?
Can he fill a room full of wealthy donors? Can anyone get rich from influence and strings pulled by him? What fat no-bid contracts would he throw to his friends?
A snake has no interest in lettuce, much as the DNC has no interest in Bernie.
"Obama promised transparency, but Assange is the one who brought it."
I'm done with DK.
Fuck Kos. I hope he chokes on the money.
