“Choosing Sanders over Warren meant choosing to lose over a few minor policy distinctions over the outside potential of actually winning.”

It is sad to see in the comments here in Jezebel that the overton window has shifted so much that for a group of people who can so easily the patriarchy entrenched in corporate media fail to see how it also favours protecting the status quo of toxic capitalism.

Shouldn’t Biden have to apologise for this racist bit of whitesplaining? Since, y’know, every candidate is responsible for every single thing anyone supporting them says or does...?🙄

What do conspiracy theories have to do with the hard fact that neo-nazis unfurled a nazi flag at a Sanders rally? Can we look beyond politics for a moment and acknowledge that antisemitism is wrong, even if it’s directed at someone who is not your chosen candidate? This is not a good look for you.

Why did the moderator shut down Nina Turner, and not say a word when the white lady interrupted her?*

Are you suggesting that it’s normal for major news outlets to not cover anti-Semitic attacks against a presidential candidate?

Me: Maybe cable news can dedicate a few minutes talking about a Nazi showing up at a Jewish guy’s rally.

Four years ago, a woman garnered millions more votes in this country.

I agree. I’m convinced Trump will win if Biden is the nominee. I can’t say I'm certain about Bernie though. 

I absolutely understand your concerns about Bernie, and in fact share them. What I don’t understand is how Biden is any better. Those young voters who apparently didn’t show up for Bernie are absolutely not going to show up for Biden. How is Biden going to achieve what Clinton couldn’t? 

You make really good points, moving the “not electable” label onto Senator Sanders would be the dream so everyone of Biden’s billionaire funders.

Biden, the same man photographed wooing a bikers wife in front of said biker?

If your support for Warren was based on her political stances, I hope you reconsider.

Bernie Sanders needs every vote to win this nomination, and I absolutely want him to win it. His campaign can not survive leaving supporters on the table for no reason...not people with a platform who might be persuaded to voicing for him, and not voters who might be persuaded to vote for him. If someone is a…

What bad statement on Castro? They were perfectly fine with the same statement when Obama said it.

I mean if you’re leftist the only candidate that’s even remotely leftist is Sanders. So it’s less a case of “I’m refusing all these female candidates because I’m a fake progressive” and more a case of “No candidate is good but Bernie is the only one who comes even remotely close”

In reading your exchange here with mango, I am literally picturing someone with their fingers in their ears, yelling “LALALALALA”....

Well, frankly, I think the Democratic Party would need to give them a reason to vote for Biden beyond mere threats. The party may instinctively want to swing right for the general election, but I think they already have that base covered.  It’s the left that isn’t convinced.

Except they are walking stereotypes. The stereotype just happens to be that of bland, suburban, white men (regardless of their sexual orientation)

It looks like there’s an effort to consolidate support for Biden before super Tuesday, which means I’m likely strategically voting for Sanders rather than Warren now. I urge others who think we need to try something new (and beat Trump) to do the same. My heart will always be with Liz but there’s a time when you’ve…
