1. And the score during the game

To know who's winning. They think you shouldn't have to have a scoreboard or even know who's winning because you can't trust the scoreboard and the end of the game, when it really matters is a long way off.

3. Seems like the Bernie crew was posting a lot of polls a few months ago

Ah, the "Bernie surges, Hillary plunges" days. They didn't object to posting polls much back then, as I recall.

... four months of BS supporters posting every poll they could find that showed Bernie garnering support.

The minute his numbers started stagnating, the same polls became skewed, inaccurate, meaningless, and undoubtedly "manipulated" by the nefarious PTB.

Funny how that works, huh?

10. What happens is this

A new poll comes out that shows HRC ahead by 4 touchdowns, and has the ball first and goal.

So the busy little Bernout Beavers start wailing and gnashing their teeth chewing on some long contrived HA Goodman bone that is full of twisted thoughts and any word but the L word. "because SBS ate sweet potato pie with the ghost of Elvis, all rock and roll fans everywhere are gonna rise up and stop war and wall street. She is doomed. Doomed I tell you" then they will kick that gem around with a bunch of 'word!' or ' I know right?' posts.

Or they sieze on some saw like "Hillary is Margaret Thatcher reincarnated" or "Bernie is the new MLK" meme. Which are let's face it, meaningless. But they will post that crap 8 times.

Lastly they can always just call Hillary voters stupid, or come up with another clever way of calling us stupid that is again long and contrived and soley meant to distract from the scoreboard. "in 2008, Hillary was ahead of everyone in the polls, and CARRIE UNDERWOOD won as American idol--Clinton supporters arebignorant of the facts"

VOTES!

All Bernie Sanders supporters are interested in is vilifying Hillary Clinton. They can't talk about endorsements (without everyone else laughing), they can't talk about his record or platform (that took about 30 minutes) and they can't even talk about Bernie being attacked (because Hillary Clinton never even bothers to mention him).

Polls are "out" for them because, no matter how they try to skew them, Hillary has twice the support as Bernie.

So we're back to throwing mud at Hillary 24/7. They literally have nothing else to talk about. They have no good news of their own so they have to crap all over everyone else's.
