I prefer to think of it as the novelization of a recurring tragedy.

Besides, there’s no prize for being neurosis-free
If you think a corporation projects women to earn $23.6 million, and the men to earn $21 million, to make the women “feel better about themselves,” then you have no clue how corporations function, or what a budgeting process is for.
Please stop commenting about labor and employment law until you know the basics of how…
Yeah, and I guess I’m saying I don’t see anything gross about a candidate picking a policy platform and saying “you should vote for me, this platform will win an election and is better than the other guy’s”
This is pretty funny, considering that, so far as I can tell, nobody at Deadspin has ever written anything that wasn’t negative about Hillary.
Well, you’re supposing a pretty strange set of circumstance- a candidate whose views you find repugnant, but whose views you find better than the other party’s views. If here views are really that repugnant, vote for the other guy? If they aren’t, then why shouldn’t you vote for her?
I could not agree with you less (it almost never happens, btw). The people she is talking about are already voting for her overwhelmingly, while the more affluent white millennials are voting for Bernie and threatening to “bust” if he doesn’t win. Her tweet is directed at the latter.
So. Much. Salt.
Good. That’s the democratic counterbalance to the right’s billionaires and their bottomless checkbooks.
Demanding that democrats, especially downticket races, forgo money while allowing republicans to drown them out with money is basically crippling the democrat and handing the majority of the victories to republicans. You need to completely overhaul campaign finance, and overturn Citizens United BEFORE there is an even…
Why? Why shouldn’t democrats use Hollywood celebrities to raise money? They are just going to waste it on frivolous shit otherwise. I want all the Hollywood money we can get to beat the republicans. They have the Koch brothers, we have Hollywood.
Once again, for the record.
No, idiot. This money is for candidates down the ballot. OTHER PROGRESSIVES. How do you imagine this “revolution” will happen? We need other good progressives in office. To get them in office, we need money for them. She’s raising the money for the down the ballot candidates, something, by the way, Bernie has not done…
You mean that people from local races are more likely to support the person who is helping fund their campaign? The ignominy!
God damn. Sanders is quickly losing any goodwill he ever had with me. What a fucking asshole. Private citizens raising money for you is okay because they are poor people? Clooney is raising money for down ballot candidates. Something Bernie hasn’t bothered to worry about because Bernie only cares about Bernie.
I think its obscene that Sanders is bankrolling a losing campaign on the backs of the working poor.
Sanders really is showing to be a huge fucking asshole isn’t he? Typical white guy is what I say. Stomping his feet when he doesn’t get his way.
It should be noted that the fundraiser is for the Hillary Victory Fund, which does help Hillary’s campaign, but also donates to down-ticket races. This sort of funding is usually vital for smaller Democratic campaigns, who cannot acquire enough funding on their own to be competitive.
You do realize that this money is for down the ballot. She’s raising for the other candidates down ballot. How much has Bernie raised down ballot?
Dude, I’m fucking done with Sanders. I gave him a ton of money and I wish I could ask for it back. This fundraiser was done specifically to raise money for downballot candidates—the kind of congresspeople Sanders would actually need to fuel his imaginary revolution.
