How is Medicare For All a cop out? And why pursue moderate steps when the GOP is going to reject them anyway and will easily wipe away. Go for the big plays. That's the American way.
Eh, working with moderate Dems would work. They're temporary allies. But you should always criticize them when they do bad things and praise them when they do good things.
You can think that if you want. He definitely had some gaffes and foot in mouth stuff. But his agenda is anything but racially blind. All it takes is looking at for four minutes to see that.
It's based on Bernie getting blown out on Super Tuesday the last time he ran for president. His 2016 outreach to black voters, particularly middle-aged and older black voters in the south, was anemic and his approach to them was literally dismissive. You can't win a Dem primary when you write off that much of the base electorate.
Odds are, had Hillary won, she would've flipped the Senate blue. There were a handful of races that could've been pushed over the finish line either way based on who won. For instance, Jason Kander probably would've made it into the Senate.
I too often think about what would have happened had Bernie campaigned for Hillary Clinton. Guess we'll never know.
I already miss your She Guevara and yes, how could we ever know how things could have turned out
James Comey is part of the #resistance now so centrists have basically forgotten that he was partly responsible for Trump winning. And his expert advice is that dems should run a moderate candidate that would unite the country... you know... like last time.
i love it. but i thought it was distracting. especially wrt to this topic
In most other countries, medicare for all public option WAS the final step. It's not an inbetween.
I don't either. *Shrug*
... Could you stop trying to paint literally everything that disagrees with you as having to do with Russia? It dillutes whatever point you're trying to make, because 99 out of 100 times you're not arguing with a Russian stooge.
It's a legitimate allegations. The old site was in the top 5 referer to Hillaryclinton.com. We are on the Russian trolls' radar.
Or maybe the ones making the allegations are Russians as well and we're that spider-man meme
Very few people in this thread have said they won't vote for Beto if he's the nominee. But voting for him doesn't mean we can't criticize him.
Nonsense! Bring it back
I remember that. It will continued to be ignored for the other statistic, though. Conveniently.
Our field sucks and everyone has problems so you aren't alone
Your memory's a little off. The thread for the Hillary thing was >60% negative. You had people in literally every thread during 2016 saying that Bernie would be doing better, too and constantly complaining about all the Hillary stans. There would be constant primary relitigation in every thread.
