This is part of why I like Gillibrand’s chances so much.

Infidility? No. If a candidate is even kind of contrite voters will overlook it.

Horseshoe theory, baby! AWOOOOOOUUU!

I think my comment calling this an incoherent babbling mess was dismissed, but this is an incoherent babbling mess lol

I’ve thought about about the particular revulsion to her (and moreso Bernie) among liberals while it’s easy to just say it’s protecting one’s material interests, I also think they realize being rendered irrelevant by people offering an uncompromising message rather than promises of practical, incremental change passed…

A follow-up question: Did he vote for Obama?

This is a long-winded, convoluted, self-contradictory mess that ultimately says nothing.

This is a terrible, inaccurate, but all-too-common assessment of politics. It’s also why the Trump phenomenon will not be a one-time thing.

This is not the winning line you think it is.

A fair point, but not one that undercuts the rationale for another version of it.

Your last sentence kinda undercuts your general point.

I actually do doubt their convictions because every major Democrat after McGovern was to his right and they haven’t left that position since. They absolutely gave up on anything ambitious and world-changing.

My favorite part of people who continually reference Chapo derisively is that they clearly don’t grasp that segment of the left at all.

What’s stranger is that a good number of Boomers lost their jobs in the last recession and usually the jobs they eventually got were worse in terms of pay and benefits than what they lost and some of them *still* dole out that advice.

I think some of it is “I got mine” but I genuinely believe most Boomers don’t and probably can’t understand how different the world is now even if they do care about the future.

I’ll never stop laughing at McCaskill going full of Camp of the Saints in a desperate attempt to hold off a slow-witted, lazy, Great Value Luke Wilson and still getting trounced while a Right to Work referendum was defeated 2-to-1.

You’re dealing with a petty old asshole upset at realizing they’re now obsolete. Oldsplaining is the nicest thing you’ll get.

It’s good to know your politics are about making the world a better place and not winning petty internecine battles since the latter might actual lose the election that count.

Also Bernie finished ahead of Hillary in the primary in these Trump-won states:

lol
