    This seems incredibly short sighted. People don’t like having their voice silenced, for good reason. Refuse them a chance now and they’re more likely to make their displeasure known in the general election when it will have a much greater effect.

      I find it hilarious as the “vote uncommitted” movement(?) specifically says that they will vote for whoever is on the Dem ticket in the General Election. This is just a complete self own by the Democratic Party.

        When party members show a lack of support it suggests that the independent voters are also likely to be questioning their support. It is atill a message that might influence his campaign if it was anything other than Israel.

      Precisely, the more of this sort of stuff happens the more people start realizing that the veneer of democracy is paper thin.
