I didn’t realize the entire first sentence was ruined by my autocorrect.

So many autocorrects: I think that one will start to pull ahead of the other... 

I’m even more weirded out by those calling for Bernie or Biden to commit to one term be ause of their age. Why are they putting their money in a candidate they don’t want in office for two terms? Their are younger progressive and centrist (and in between) candidates running, it makes no sense.

I think they one with start to put ahead of the other once the debates start. I’m so ready for it, I just hope Biden and Sanders don’t suck up all the time. 

Yeah, like anyone is surprised? 

A lot of time passes between election cycles so we should just sit on our thumbs until then? Strikes work, organizing works. When workers realize that, they can make change happen. We have to keep talking about this and supporting workers if we ever want things to improve. It’s going to take a lot longer if we wait

Companies absolutely should be expected to pay a living wage. Why are you ok with our tax money going to supplement companies that pay poverty wages?

I grew up in bourbon country, so I’m familiar with the differences in tastes. The people I know who collect do it for the status, not to drink it. It sits on the shelf while they just continue drinking Maker’s Mark (but not one of the limited edition collectible bottles, those are just for looking at). To me it’s for

If Buttigieg is really the best candidate then he can probably survive people joking about his whiskey library. Nothing in this post is going to hurt his campaign. The only thing he really has to worry about is convincing people his experience as a mayor is enough and having some kind of plan outlined by the time the

Harris and Warren are better than the VP slot, they don’t deserve to be sidelined. 

I've seen him play lip service to certain Democratic issues without outlining any plans or specifics, which to me is the same as saying nothing. Until he starts putting out more concrete ideas he just doesn't stand out to me. He said we should just know what his values are, but I don't really get what his values are

On my way. 

This was a fantastic and fun article to read. Honestly, they’re like palate cleansers for what is going to be a long, hard campaign season full of actual hit pieces. 

That’s the fun! 

Oh, I have a lot of thoughts about people who hoard bourbon, but not actual concern about what Pete was doing with his whiskey library.

Biden will be running for gaffer. 

I don’t actually care about this bit of his personal history. 

The majority of the articles I’ve seen on him are substance free fluff pieces about his various hobbies and the boxes he ticks. This one just pokes fun at it, because he has yet to provide us with much substance. 

I’m kind of surprised, this is a new development that I didn’t see coming. 

I’m not telling anyone they’re wrong, I’m just expressing why I have no interest in Pete until he outlines some policies so I know where he stands. It’s like the bare minimum we can expect from people running for office.
