Better take, they can both get fucked 

I also think it should be pointed out for what it’s worth that Biden voted against Thomas. 

So you’re arguing we should go with Warren or Harris? Oh no right, you’re arguing for the older white guy who suffered a heart attack a few months ago and has shown less ability to motivate voters to the polls than he did 4 years ago.

I mean they did past the most significant piece of progressive legislation in half a century, so there’s that. 

No, opposition research is a pretty significant if unheralded part of political campaigns— especially large, well-funded Presidential campaigns. In this case they didn’t even have to do significant research if they found her claims credible, they only had to feed the story to friendly press.

Not exactly a coincidence that the only company Trump’s invoked the Defense Production Act (or whatever) on is one helmed by a female CEO. 

Fair. I mean they appear to account for at best 10-15% of Dem Primary voters. 

We can’t say they didn’t warn us-- it’s like Trump and stupid “snake” story he tells at rallies- he/they are pretty openly admitting who/what they are but doing so with just enough deniability to mock people who accuse them of being what they claim as squares not in on the joke.  See also: “ironic” racism

Speaking of Union Busters-- kind of surprising that didn’t get dropped into the Cenk Uguyur description in the article

M4A- the Schezuan Sauce of political ideas?

The issue is the inability of some of Sanders’s more die hard fans and campaign staff to recognize that others are also fighting for those things-- even if they aren’t in lockstep with Dear Leader. 

I thought it was kind of hilarious how Ashley didn’t even touch of Cenk being endorsed by Bernie, given the article is, in part, about endorsements.

Thought the Brogressives would at least wait until she was eligible to “I’d totally vote for a woman for President, just not that woman” AOC. 

Which would incentivize them to act in self-interest even if one excludes the moral and ethical issues, that they didn't makes me believe they either dismissed her out of hand or looked into the accusation and found it lack credibility 

I mean literally all evidence seems to show Trump desperately wants or at least wanted to avoid Biden at all costs 

She also said the Warren and Harris campaigns shut her up— along with a number of media outlets across the ideological spectrum all at a time that Biden was dead in the water politically— which is a massive conspiracy straining given that virtually all parties allegedly involved had strong motives to at the very least

If RBG (et al honestly) didn't want to retire, what exactly were Obama's options? 

Alternatively, they did look into the accusations, found nothing, and thus didn’t go further. 

Ehh...you don’t see too many stories about Bernie’s campaigns being family enrichment grifts with Jane on commission.

This. Also the “the media will publish without investigating” trope should have dissapated after the Washington Post repeatedly dunked on a Project Veritas attempt to float a false Roy Moore accusation (in order to discredit the other allegations).
