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

I think I'll shove off for my favored political debate sites - ones who discuss issues and don't think "he/she is an idiot" is educated debate. Leave off the name calling and this thread would have 3 posts. Interested though in Amy K making a strong showing. Creepy Joe is finished IMHO.

Every time I see Biden speak, the less and less I want to vote for him.

Joe is ****ing drunk. He sounds like trump.
 
Re: Democratic Challengers 9: Can we climb this mountain? I don't know.

laughing at your own jokes is never a good look.

I could easily get behind a Buttgieg/Amy ticket (no matter the order). Uncle Joe keeps dropping, fine with me. Sanders scares me. Looks like Warren is fading.

Sanders is only scary if you somehow think Scandanavia is scary.
 
Re: Democratic Challengers 9: Can we climb this mountain? I don't know.

Pete/Amy ticket also gets absolutely smashed by Trump. Talk about a boring, vanilla (literally and figuratively), uninspiring ticket.

Sanders is scary when you realize that most of being a president is foreign relations and the Congress should be handling legislation.

Pete/Amy doesn't play. The fact that Sanders scares you indicates he's the candidate who can win. I'm sure you won't take this personally but this election isn't going to be won by people like you. You guys are either going to regress and vote for Dump or find an excuse to stay home.

To be blunt, a gay and a woman on the same ticket? Hardly boring or vanilla in the social aspect. As far as politics, left-ish, but generally moderate. Hopefully won't create gridlock and will get something done. You think Sanders will get anything done? Warren would have a small shot, Biden is toast right now.

I didn't vote for Trump the first time. You think I'm going to do that now? I cannot stand his policies/extremism (which, hey, is why I didn't vote for Trump! Imagine that!).

Edit: the election is definitely going to be won by people like me. The ones who either didn't vote, or voted for indies/etc rather that Hill or Don.

I think that's true. The target.
 
Re: Democratic Challengers 9: Can we climb this mountain? I don't know.

The target is the people around the edges who don't vote because the process leaves them out. Not some mythical "middle ground" arena. The Dems run to the center and lose. The GOP runs to the fringe and wins. That's the political history of the United States for the last forty years.
 
Re: Democratic Challengers 9: Can we climb this mountain? I don't know.

Does anyone have a site they like for results? CNN consistently had one of the top ones, but their new redesign is awful.

NYT update, 68% of precincts reporting:

Code: 
[B]Candidate	        Votes	 Pct.     Pledged delegates[/B]
Bernie Sanders          49,176	26.2%           6
Pete Buttigieg          44,870	23.9	        6
Amy Klobuchar           37,314	19.8	        4
Elizabeth Warren        17,535	 9.3	        0
Joseph R. Biden         15,651	 8.3	        0
Others                  23,504	12.5	        0

Warren's dead. Biden's dead but doesn't know it. It's a four horse race now: Sanders, Buttigieg, Klobuchar, and Bloomberg's money.
