In reply to the discussion: There are some on DU Calling for the banning [View all]lapucelle
(20,303 posts)I remember how marginalized I felt after the convention in 2008. The thing that hurt me most was the gloating by some on the winning side.
I've listened to Thom Hartman for many years. He has given Bernie two solid hours every Friday (Brunch with Bernie) for years when nobody outside of Vermont (except for political junkies) had even heard of him.
I saw Cenk on either CNN or MSNBC this weekend chatting up the Democratic ticket.
Rather than ban these voices, why not take a look at what they're saying now and what they say going forward? If they decide to play the politics of petulance by further damaging Hillary, cut them loose. If they're on board with electing the Democratic candidate, then they're valuable voices, especially in bringing some of the holdouts into the fold.
