Of all the candidates on the Democratic side she is the most like Hillary Clinton. Establishment, female, and apparently a *****. I was under the understanding that Hillary lost because she wasn't likable. In fact that was pretty prominent when she was running against Obama as well.

Just saying.

What's your basis in saying that? Because she's a woman?

Favorable-unfavorable say there are numerous candidates including Sanders and Warren are far more unlikable.

I'm not one to agree with trix but yeah, if Bernie was chucking binders, pencils, paper weights or whatever at his staffers I find it hard to believe that it wouldn't be news. One of our main points against Chump is that he's an unhinged maniac after all. I want somebody who's electable. Anybody who's had an a sshole boss is going to identify with her staffers unfortunately. She needs to get out in front of this better than "I demand a lot out of the people who work for me". So did I when I was a manager, but I don't recall winging anything at them at any point and believe me I was tempted to on several occasions.

Yeah he just turned a blind eye to his Bernie Bros staff skeeving/harassing on women while his wife was committing fraud! (allegedly!!) ;)

All of which was and has been news since you brought it up quite bit the last few months :p

They're not establishment. Amy is.
 
Re: 2020 Democratic Challengers III: Weekend at Bernie's

Do you even read.

She's establishment AND is unlikable. What else does Bernie have in common with Amy other than being unlikable apparently? Nothing. Same with Warren.

I NEVER ****ING said that unlikable and establishment were equivalents. But, of course that's what you read.

No, it's not a meme. I don't have meme's.
 
Re: 2020 Democratic Challengers III: Weekend at Bernie's

BTW I was telling you all of this stuff about Amy back in 2014. (if not earlier) The fact that the media has decided to stop ignoring it (it wasnt hidden or anything) just shows they are already trying to pick favorites. The Dems wont have to eat their own the media is going to do it for them.

She still isnt my candidate but if the worst they have is she threw a binder then she will be fine. Just like if the worst they have on Bernie is his Bros are creepy he will be fine. The Dems need to not fall into the trap of blowing up every black mark into a war. No candidate is perfect and pure, nor should they be.

You keep saying that. Her favorability is +27 to -9 in the most recent Feb. polls - quite favorable. One could make the case that she's the most popular Minnesotan politician this generation. Why do you say she's unpopular?

If we expect the media to comply we're already done. And if we can't figure out how to vote for the Democrat even when we don't get what we want then we may as well quit now.

She wasn't likable but it doesn't maker her a b****. She lost because didn't inspire the Bernies, she didn't inspire those on the fence, she sure as s*** didn't inspire some Democrats, she ****ed up her campaign in 3 key states she likely should have won (if not more) and some people (some of whom are a subset of the aforementioned) assumed (like many of us) there's no way Trump could win and stayed home.

Right, she lost because she wasn't likable.

Likability is what the attack is about. If she can't get the attack to end it will ultimately affect her in the campaign. I like her just fine. I also like Mrs. Clinton. Always have.

Sure you do...your whole schtick is repeating the same crap over and over. If I had a nickel for every time you posted lock that ***** up I could retire. ;)

How do you know she is unlikeable? How do you know anything about any of these people this far out? What did you watch Meet the Press and someone told you? Morning Joe do a poll?

But please...who is the candidate the "people" are going to like and vote for? My guess is whoever you pick will age about as well as your "I see no evidence of a Blue Wave" comment did on Election Night :p

She was unlikeable because the Right had been destroying her for 3 decades. Klobuchar didnt even have a national profile until the Kavanaugh hearings and she was maybe third on their hate list. Keep trying...

I'm just reading the press just like everyone else. I haven't picked anybody. The wave I was hoping for was in the Senate. As I knew, nothing really has changed after this magical "blue wave" that everyone is euphoric over.

Don't like my takes stop reading em. Just put me on ignore.

No memes? You're the Cafe's Auntie Meme.

"jfc" as a single word reply to a story is your meme.

"53% of white women" is your meme.

"Who cares, I'll probably get hit by a bus anyway" is your meme.

Dictionary result for meme

No one else uses my stuff. It's not a ****ing meme. You can feel free to flaggy me as well. I'm already sick of this cycle.

Nothing has changed? Ok...

Of course you were hoping for the Senate, there was like a 10% chance that could happen so it was a guaranteed disappointment :p

Why would I put you on ignore? First of all you are often entertaining and second sparring with you is fun. This isnt life or death here it is a friggin message board. You might want to lighten up a bit. Nothing we say or do is going to change anything. We arent the problem. I will bet 90% of the people posting in these threads will not only vote but vote D.

I have blocked maybe 4 posters and none of them over politics. Just because I might think your opinion is awful doesnt mean I am going to ignore it. That is stupid and childish. Sure I will mock you for it which is also childish but I also expect to get mocked when my posts are proven wrong. That is what "friends" do. It is why on GPL we mock dx about charts or Rube about how he likes Tech more than the Gophers or we rip Kepler cause Cornell is a glorified SUNY school...that is just what "friends" do. :)
