I’ll probably end up in the grays again.

Well, we’ll see what it’s worth, because the airlines are now coming for $50 billion in bailouts. They’ve been raking in profits for some time now (pretty much all of which went to stock buybacks), but now say they won’t make it to the end of the year without taxpayer assistance.

I read that article and rolled my eyes. Bernie followers love phrases like “warn of a massive exodus” the same way they warned about a massive voting revolution that would put Bernie in power.

Well, look at all these whites in 86% black Detroit.

To make it clear:

To be honest, if some segment of Bernie’s supporters are willing to sit out and let Trump win, it makes one think that you can’t really appeal to them anyway--short of picking Sanders for VP (which won’t happen of course).

There have been Sanders supporters who don’t play nicely with others on the internet, who don’t realize that sneering at others who generally agree on many of the same lefty issues is not productive, who revel in the clout that comes with embarrassing some verified Twitter user over a lukewarm Sanders take. And I…

“And I maintain that emoji bombing Warren—for example—was a big mistake. Not just because it was petulant and embarrassing, but also because the mainstream media seems to relish any opportunity to discredit the Sanders campaign, and some of his most vocal supporters on Twitter gave in to the bait far too easily.”

Also, Warren can’t tweet without hate from Bernie supporters. It’s hard to shift support to him when you liked someone as amazing and who did so much as she has done when his supporters need reporting. Seriously, that hate can put such a bad taste in a person’s mouth, along with Bernie’s record of doing less than…

This honestly isn’t true, because the demographics Sanders has staked his campaign on are unreliable voters. They couldn’t even carry him to the Democratic nomination, much less carry him to victory in a general election. Frankly, as much as it pains Bernie’s fans to hear, Biden has more of a chance of appealing to…

So Bernie lovers might not get their candidate on the ballot in November.
Sure, it’s a bit of a bummer.
BUT when the ultimate choice comes down between an actual human with the capacity for empathy, the ability to take responsibility for his actions and admit when he’s wrong, and a genuine interest in trying to do…

Bernie’s supporters always seem to approach his candidacy as if it’s an inherent reality that young people are better, or more worthy, or more valuable. Votes, in the end, are valuable, and all people are valuable, as everyone’s effort to shelter and protect the elderly happens now. WHY does Biden need to win over…

This is exactly how I feel. Everyone bitching about Hillary claimed they would happily vote for Warren, ah, but no, not over Sanders. She’s far more competent, far more able (and willing) to build coalitions, and far more intelligent, not to mention she is really able to connect with people. I don’t think we’ll see a…

This REALLY bothers me. As a former Sanders supporter, I understand why young progressive support him so whole-heartedly. BUT, they absolutely refuse to critically assess his platform the way they did Warren’s. Sanders was given a pass on the purity test, while Warren was absolutely vilified by the left as some…

Is sexism a factor in this election? I dunno, maybe it is the sheer number of people (all white men) who said, in 2016, “I’m not SEXIST I would totally vote for a PROGRESSIVE like ELIZABETH WARREN” and then as soon as Warren was running against the anointed Bernie she’s a terrible snake and liar, and corporatist whore…

I think these feelings are specifically because it’s *this* woman. It’s because not only is she so much more competent and qualified than anyone else up there, Warren was held up as the example 4 years ago when everyone was saying they’d vote for a woman, just not Hillary.

Same. Even if I did see it coming after Tuesday. It’s just so damn deflating.

We are totally ready to have a female President.

She made the fatal error of trying to explain how her health care plan would be paid for. She should have just made promises like Bernie and Trump and never be truthful about how it would all work. People want to hear you’re getting free college, we’re going to build a wall, not turn to page 126 to see eliminating the…
