Re: Democratic Challengers 9: Can we climb this mountain? I don't know.

Biden sounds like a guy who knows his campaign is over, and he's not happy about it. Anger stage of grief.

I don’t like how Pete didn’t even pause to hear and understand the question. You could almost see there gears turning as his mouth was moving.

You could see him struggling. Come on man. It’s ok to pause and consider the question.

Bernie is great evidence that age doesn’t matter for mental faculties.
Biden is great evidence that age matters a great deal.

Jeebus.

Biden looks like he's aged another five years since Monday.

I'm pretty convinced if Buttigieg is the nominee, the black vote will stay home. It's pretty easy to see him as the embodiment of white privilege.
 
Re: Democratic Challengers 9: Can we climb this mountain? I don't know.

1. Klobuchar
2. Mayor Pete
3. Bernie
4. Warren
5. Steyer
6. Biden
7. Yang

Edit: Now Chris Christie up there bloviating about Mayor Pete's record. :rolleyes:

This was definitely Yang's second worst debate, and you could tell he's ready to pack it up and stiff his merry band of alt-right and loonitarian #YangGang trolls on their last paychecks.

I really hope this gives Amy a push, but in reality, I think at best she gets a Veep nom.

Good news for the Bernie Bros, Steve Bannon is fighting right along side you!

I like all the folks calling him just another mediocre white man. Do people really think any random white person can go to Harvard and Oxford? Regardless of whatever you think of his politics he is very accomplished.

Chris Matthews went insane last night.

No it's not.

538 just flip-flopped Sanders and Biden in their model. Huh. It's happening. In all honesty I never imagined the US would grow up in my lifetime.

Rich Failsons are a special case. IINM, Buttigieg does not come from money. He earned his way into tier 1.

Credentialism is mostly bull$hit and there’s a reason people like him can “earn” a degree at Harvard while other less fortunate people can’t.

You're conflating a bunch of different things. It's true that graduating from a tier 1 is neither necessary nor sufficient proof of intellect. However, there is a non-zero correlation, once we take the rich goobers out of the pool. It doesn't mean everything. It does mean something.
