Thoguh posted:That's very true but misleading because her opponent was Trump, so she was already on extra easy mode. I say it is misleading because of how terrible the dems have done downticket and in state/local races. So the problem wasn't just Hillary but the overall message of the party. Anybody but Hillary would have beaten Trump, but that doesn't change that the Democrats have become a regional party of the Northeast plus a half dozen or so large cities elsewhere. the other problem is that that's where most people live

Look, there's no way that a site which ranks things according to how many people give a positive rating to something and has free account generation could easily be manipulated by like one dude with some proxies and a few simple scripts. It just isn't possible. The Cyber doesn't allow for it.

It was a post-heavy day on the streets. "CTR shills", "Soros puppets"... I've seen it all. I closed the blinds, grabbed my tendies and hooked my butthole up to the posting rig. The russia-sponsored berniebots were at it again.
