30. I have noticed they're already saying things that suggest people should not vote Hillary

But they're saying it in ways that they hope will avoid a "post removed." For example "my friends think Hillary.." or "some people say Hillary.."

The strategy seems to be that if they avoid saying that they themselves think it, or finding links from accepted sites that undermine Hillary but posting it as "objective news," they'll get away with it. My prediction is those who use this strategy will end up banned.

Well, to answer your question, I think its just raw emotion. liberalnarb Jun 2016 #40
Probably. It's certainly not rational Cary Jun 2016 #41
You may be right, but its hard not to get attached to at least the idea of your candidate winning in liberalnarb Jun 2016 #42
In the meantime they're trashing John Lewis and Democrats Cary Jun 2016 #47
