When do we get to the point where Sanders insisting he can win so his supporters continue to send him money become a corrupt act?

23. ...

3. K&R!

[Warren DeMontague]

4. when verb tense usage become english problematic did

[CajunBlazer]

6. About the same time the you decided you didn't like the question.

[Warren DeMontague]

17. Oh, I love the question.

I'm taking the question out to a romantic candlelight dinner, then perhaps a languid walk on a sunset-dappled beach, where we will be serenaded by a group of ukulele-strumming musicians, then the question and I will retire to my quaint beachside bungalow for 7 hours of slow, intense, meaningful lovemaking.

[CajunBlazer]

24. Wow

Just Wow!

[Nictuku]

5. Perhaps he should follow Hillary's lead?

[Waiting For Everyman]

7. Some people don't listen well.

All the way to the convention, and through the whole process there that exists.

Until there is a voted upon designated nominee, it is possible. And even then, in this election cycle it's still entirely possible that the designated nominee could have to drop out. So you on that side don't have the slightest idea whether Sanders can win, and it's high time YOU stop pretending you do.

If anyone doesn't believe Bernie, they are free to stop donating to him any time. You actually have no "standing" to say anything whatsoever about the money he raises. And that's the thing that really pisses HRC and her supporters off the most -- that Bernie can out fundraise her!

This stuff is such nonsense.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

8. why bother insisting on this? they've already lost and it will feel less unfair if he drops after the

last primary

procedural justice etc.

[winter is coming]

9. Did Hillary release those speech transcripts today? n/t

[Live and Learn]

10. When do Hillary supporters quit asking inane questions? nt

[CajunBlazer]

25. When the question is answered

Perhaps the more immediate question is when is Skinner going to call it?

[Maru Kitteh]

35. yup.

[alcibiades_mystery]

11. Long since past...this thing turned into a grift a while ago

[inchhigh]

12. Never.

Or at least until Nov 8th, when he actually wins.

[CajunBlazer]

18. ...

[Unicorn]

22. Never. He should still take money for the revolution. It must not be stopped.

[CajunBlazer]

29. Even if those contributing can't afford it?

If his many of his biggest donors have already reached their contribution limits ($2,500) and he is still averaging only $27 per donation, for those who are only giving a few dollars at a time we are not talking about folks who can afford for a lot of their money to be dropped down a rat hole.

After today the only honest thing for Sanders to do is to make it clear to his contributors that his chances of winning are few. Then if they want to continue to contribute, more power to them.

[Agnosticsherbet]

13. As long as Devine and Weaver are taking home the big bucks....

I think that says it all.

[KingFlorez]

14. It's already at that point

[cherokeeprogressive]

15. Why do you care?

[CajunBlazer]

30. Because a lot of poor people are contirbuting to his campaign....

...under the assumption that he isn't lying to them when he says he has a good chance to win.

[cherokeeprogressive]

31. You would decide for people what they should do with their money?

How quaint.

[CajunBlazer]

34. No, but I can insist (to no avail) that they at least...

...be told the truth about his chances of winning. If he is honest with everyone about his situation and they still want to contribute, well more power to them.

[cherokeeprogressive]

37. Because you care.

[nichomachus]

16. He's got a long way to go

To catch up with Mrs. Clinton's corruption. He could probably never come close to her stuffing her pockets with money.

[CajunBlazer]

19. .....

[NurseJackie]

20. He'd never be indicted for it ... but ethically, it's corrupt.

[CajunBlazer]

21. Kick

[k8conant]

26. After the vote at the convention

[passiveporcupine]

27. Must not be a popular topic

if you have to kick your own threads.

[CajunBlazer]

32. Thanks for kicking it yourself

And giving me a chance to kick it again.

[passiveporcupine]

38. No problem, with enough silly posts in this thread

it will become so boring even this can't keep it alive.

[beachbum bob]

28. Bernie been spending like a drunken sailor and will

Continue to as long as money keeps rolling in...until his ego can allow him...he be doing it for a while longer...but it does become a ethical issues when its a clear conning of money from those who can't afford it...that time is a few weeks away....then we have a real test on whether or not Bernie has a moral center...

[SidDithers]

33. March 15...nt

[redwitch]

36. You are full of goodness and light.

Not really. You're a jerk and one of the reasons DU has been sucking so hard lately.

[CajunBlazer]

40. And why am I a jerk?

It's seems like a legitimate question to ask.

[redwitch]

43. I have no idea why you are a jerk. nt

[CajunBlazer]

45. And you have no idea that I am a jerk

so please keep your assumptions to yourself.

[redwitch]

46. Your behavior here is a pretty big clue.

And your transparency page reflects that. No worries though, I will in future ignore you.

[CajunBlazer]

47. Okay, if behavior is key, I guess you're a jerk for calling me a jerk

Sounds fair to me. Meanwhile I am through conversing with a thin-skinned jerk.

[Blanks]

39. If it were me sending him money...

I'd want to know where he's going to take his grandkids next. They got to watch grandpa Bernie wait in the hall to shake the pope's hand on campaign funds.

Maybe they'll all go to the North Pole and watch him meet Santy Clause.

[TheKentuckian]

41. The convention or when 100% of the remaining delegates would not be enough to win which I doubt is

possible prior to the last primary.

[fluffyclouds]

42. because you care so much about us right?

[basselope]

44. Never.
