Bernie Sanders likes to attack Joe Biden for voting for the “Wall Street bailouts”, meaning TARP, which he voted against. We’re all damn lucky Bernie’s vote didn’t carry the day! These were loans, which the banks paid back with interest, and Bernie’s terribly irresponsible opposition risked completely nuking the world economy.
I just watched Medium Cool on Blu-ray last night. Absolutely incredible stuff! I can’t believe they put actors into the middle of that.
According to his profile, Manwich is posting from Japan.
What about them?
Why would [del]Bernie and his Bros[/del] a party start [del]working[/del] allowing for [del]a party[/del] Bernie and his Bros, they don’t belong to and don’t support the party?
Sooo…Bernie’s new advisor is a conspiracy nutter who has repeatedly made disparaging remarks about Michelle Obama’s appearance. Nice.

Japan? Maybe he’s posting from his secret volcano base there.
Manwich, this seems to be your real bottom-line position, so let’s go ahead and discuss it for a little bit.
Democratic governments work best when they run in a basically centrist position. Half the country may be center-left and the other half center-right, but the general consensus is somewhere approaching the middle.
Over the last 50 years, both the Democrats and the Republicans have been dragged away from the center by the outer wings of the parties. They only thing it’s accomplished is a desperate attempt by each party to undo what the other one does.
Hyperbolic statements like “I want the Democratic party destroyed” are fun to type, but in the real world, they’re a straight path to four more years of Donald Trump. Sure, you can hope that the Democrats go the way of the Whigs, but you’d better have something more than a frustrated solcialist from Vermont to replace it.
There are plenty of choices for voters. In 2016 there were a total of 25 political parties who ran candidates for President. 23 of them combined for a total of 7.8 million votes - one million fewer votes than Hillary Clinton received in just the state of California. Centrism works.
not sure if Biden got sick or even died that Sanders would be picked. I could see them going with Warren instead.
According to the 538 primary forecast, things have gotten even worse for Sanders polling-wise in the last few days. For example, he had been up in Michigan until recently, but now Biden is the favorite there. If Bernie can’t take Michigan and get some momentum swinging his way, he is in serious trouble, because right now everything is snowballing toward Biden.
Never mind

Latinos in Texas don’t give a shit about Castro, so you’re thinking wrong.
Which is why I do blame Bernie for the actions of his Bros. I have said repeatedly that a candidate isn’t responsible for some random raving nut job on Twitter, but when the campaign is staffed with trolls, that is a reason to blame them
Anybody on Sander’s staff could have googled this guy to find this. Either they didn’t, which is incompetent, or they did and rolled with him anyway, which is stupid.
I smell the flop sweat of desperation, Bernie.
Sanders reminds me of a line from Robert the Bruce in Braveheart - “Now it’s just rage” Sanders is getting close to that point where he has no chance to win but keeps on raging. If he did not quit early last time I doubt he quits early this time.
Yes, this is it.
Needs the young voters actually…*voting. *
What I love is that after raging at the unfairness of the DNC, they now want the DNC to “step in” and pick Bernie.
Telling them over and over again that the DNC has little power in this, that it’s the voters doesnt seem to sink in.
Total is now 664- 573, pretty close.
Except you forget Bloomberg’s and Petes nearly 100 delegates to Biden.
Now if Warren throws her’s to Bernie…
A second poll (Monmouth) has just come out giving Biden a 51-36 lead in Michigan. Good chance the coffin nail will be driven in tomorrow. Exceptional youth turnout hasn’t materialized so, without the claim to extra Upper Midwest support, what’s left?
after next Tues there are only a few big states left to vote. NY, NJ , Penn are the main 3. the rest are smaller states or territories. Unless Sanders does well this week and next that is about it for his chances.
You mean constantly and totally supporting SocSec and wanting a increase?
Biden has always supported Socsec, anything else is a total fabrication.
