When you apologize over and over for mistakes you make after the damage is already done, people start to worry. They worried in 2008, with all of the racist dog-whistle tactics, even after she apologized. They worry now.

Surprised you haven’t been dismissed yet, for being a liberal around here. It’s not the place it used to be, and the centrism has taken over as a means of supporting a fairly popular right-of-center politician.
The centrists have used identity politics to distract us from getting liberal policies enacted. Clinton shouted, “Will raising the taxes solve racism?” as her excuse for never raising the taxes. Literally. Of course it won’t solve racism. The left can do both. It’s gotten beyond cynical.
Anymore? Jesus.
Generational survival doesn’t require eating and breathing and procreation to feel good. It just requires it to be easy, frequent, and inevitable. That’s a big ol’ biology fail, on Tyson’s part. That said, if there were a gene responsible for making you have more sex, that gene would invariably be more likely to be…
Anyone who says they’re voting for Sanders, but would refuse to vote against the Republican in the general election, isn’t voting on principle.
The DNC is turning on Warren and the CFPB.
Sanders—like any real social democrat—would want you to keep complaining about inequality and fighting for equality, even after he’s elected. Your comment is a shit.
We all used to talk like liberals around here, and we used to call out conservative demagoguery for what it was. I’ve never heard Jezzies us the term “unpragmatic” for social democratic spending and policies, until just recently. I’ve never heard anyone call free public education “inherently racist” for its goal of…
Another “regrettable” moment. It’ll be easily dismissed as a vocal miscue, or a timely change of heart.
That’s why I steer clear of doors. You know, most mistakes happen around the home. These kinds of accidents are entirely avoidable.
If you think anyone on the American left is objectively far left, you don’t understand the extreme degree to which our entire nation has shifted deep into the economic right after Reagan’s reign. When people talk about nuance, what they’re really talking about is the nuance between far-right and far-far-right. No…
This is why the recidivism rate is so high among thirsty Americans.
If the Republicans win, we’ll all be in the grays forever.
I bet Spanish would sound awesome in Bernie’s accent.
Right! If the polls sucked, then you shouldn’t say that they reveal a 99% chance of anything. A proper prognosticator would say, “These polls suck, but they still give a 75/80/85% (whatever) chance of a Clinton victory”. They should take into account the mathematical likelihood that the polls work.
There are those who would vote against her for her gender; there are those in this very thread who have stated they’ll vote for her, based on the gender or race of some of her opponents’ supporters. Or the things that the supporters—not the candidates—might say. But the rift in the Democratic Party is the same it’s…
Sanders winning in a state with a large black population means that Clinton’s team is cooking up ads right now to suggest that her monolith needs to consolidate better.
The exit poll from the actual primary would be more useful than preliminary polls here:
