Yeah at the state level some groups have taken to boycotting legislative hearings on these bills because testifying on them only serves to give credence to anti-Propaganda. 

On the international stage Biden while bumbling is easier to imagine than Sanders. I think this is where the Bernie baggage is going to be interesting if he makes it to the general— does Trump's own manifest unfitness help neutralize Bernie’s weaknesses in the foriegn policy sector? 

If Biden and Bernie could take each other out we'd all be better for it. 

This. The lesson of a Bernie lost among his true believers isn't going to be "well we went too far for where America currently is" ; it'll be "look at how the DNC and the establishment screwed Bernie, if they'd really tried he'd have won easily". 

This is such a deeply privileged statement, it’s like the people who think a failed M4A push in 2009-2010 would have been better than actually expanding access to health care for tens of millions of Americans (from the Medicare Expansion alone). 

That Republicans in South Carolina are so confident Sanders is a disaster that they’re actually putting together an organized effort to vote for him is disturbing as were Republican efforts to take down Biden in Iowa (Rick Scott's Super PAC literally ran anti-Biden ads down the stretch). 

This. For the Field organizer at least, I do kind of wonder if it's a mismatch between expectations and reality- regardless of background or demographics a field organizer is just not going to have a ton of influence on strategy- it's an entry "get your feet wet" position. 

Well now I'm excited 

I think the issue a lot of people have is that Prosecutors for the most part get a pass for doing the same sorts of things despite have vastly more power.

Cool, to the rest of us you sound like people complaining you can’t find a decent sandwich since DC doesn’t have a WaWa or a Masshole bitching that there isn’t a Dunkin every 2 blocks. 

Or hell embrace the city and open your palate go to Keren and get some Ful and Scrambled eggs- cheap, filling, delicious. 

So it’s like trying to find a decent cheap taco in NYC after living in LA?

So like a shitty McDonald’s breakfast? Weird flex. 

This is such weird provincialism, like I get it around say Bagels but every town in America has some place that can make a breakfast sandwich.

So it could be a conspiracy to suppress the Buttigieg bump abetted by one 2020 candidate to help run 2017 reform efforts, whose supporters fought to keep caucuses against the will of the majority of the party and who is now endorsed by a dozen Senior DNC members?

So... Kind of fucked up that Bernie rented his Iowa party space from the Head of Iowa Right to Life.

Utah’s arguably the most conservative state in America but it’s also state won by Trump with the lowest percentage of the vote.

Not calling him a hero or anything but Romney's literally the first Senator in history to vote to remove a President of his own party during an Impeachment. 

Ehhh..listen to Atlantic seaboard and PA folks rave about WaWa- this is that

Fong’s - that’s the Des Moines resturant I remember the most from past IA primary cycle work— Chinese resturant turned Pizza joint/tiki bar with really interesting American-Chinese pizza topping options.
