the Iowa Caucuses were an absolute fucking disaster
the Iowa Caucuses were an absolute fucking disaster
Three or four months ago, I couldn’t have told you, between Biden and Buttigieg, who I wanted least. Now, it is clear. If it comes down to Biden and Buttigieg, I would donate to Biden, phone bank for Biden, plaster my car with Biden bumper stickers, anything to prevent Buttigieg from being the nominee. He is such a…
I really hope this was addressed to Sanders supporters rather than suggesting that other candidates’ voters need to “get in line.” Since it looks like Bernie voters are the ones who so far haven’t gotten the memo: https://www.newsweek.com/bernie-sanders-poll-warren-biden-2020-nominee-emerson-college-1483831
I like AOC but it does seem a little self-serving that she’s making this case for unity when her pick is now in front.
AOC is quite pragmatic, she supports Sanders but realizes there is a good chance he doesn’t get the nomination
I mean, it’s nice that they’re saying that and that this time round everyone agrees (even Bloomberg has pledged to spend up to a billion dollars to defeat trump and put his weight behind the nominee even if it isn’t him and even if it’s Sanders or Warren), but yeah let’s be honest the Bernie bros are only saying it…
Most likely, they are bots, or Russians. Making it seem like the whole Democratic party will bail if Warren gets the nomination is their most effective attack, so they’re going with it.
Rose Twitter is a cult
You know, for all the self-professed wife guys in the race (and Pete’s husband who won’t go near a kitchen), I’m shocked, SHOCKED I tell you, that a male candidate didn’t come up with this idea.
Yeah, why did Hillary have to defend Rep. Tlaib against Trumps racist attacks? I mean she didn’t have to! She should just shut up and go away because...
Warren is the best candidate this time around, bar none. She’s the smartest, most logical and frankly has the most fleshed out ideas. Unfortunately smart women scare people so that’s why we have two septogenarians leading the way. One loopy and the other with a bum ticker.
Was always kinda partial to a Roy Rogers actually. I really like those sequined shirts.
Eh. Iowa and Nevada are the only early states that actually use a caucus, and it’s the caucus system that is the real problem. There’s actually a perfectly legitimate argument for beginning the process in states like these, though not necessarily these states or in this specific order.
WA state used to divide its electoral votes in the primary between a caucus and paper ballot, with a larger amount allocated from the caucus. I’m personally disinclined to caucus. I intended to go last primary cycle, but when the time came, I just couldn’t get past the social anxiety. I ended up just mailing in my…
I was waiting for y’all to cover this. I’m not surprised. That’s Ceciltucky for you.
I would be satisfyingly amused if Liz Warren won the Iowa caucuses despite being down in the polls.
The DMR poll is also the gold standard in Iowa, so either the paper is endorsing the candidate they actually like the most (and kudos there) or they see something in the last week or so...
