Democratic Challengers: Starting this thread to Own The Libs!

Re: Democratic Challengers: Starting this thread to Own The Libs!

:rolleyes:

99% of us on the Left understand exactly the position we are in. Indeed, a far greater percentage of the Left is willing to respect and work with the Center than vice versa.

As dumb as the rare "the Center is just Dump Lite" narrative is, the "the Left is completely insane and unreasonable" is far dumber, and unfortunately far less rare. Just look at this forum as an example. A significant percentage of Centrists cannot go 11 seconds without a dig or a cherry picked story about some silly extremist's statement. You folks are living in a fantasyland where the Left is a Bard College dorm room.

We're not. We're more informed and involved than the Center, we have a far better idea of where we want the country to go and what other examples exist around the world, and we've been doing the work for decades while many people in the Center sat around fat and happy with their thumb in their as-s saying "the era of Big Government is over." :rolleyes:

We are willing to work with you. Stop with the bullsh-t please. You are like an obstreperous teenager who every time we try to work together just has to get their little dig in because they are so fragile.

Ya know, for somebody sounding the "lets all work together" clarion call, you really need to work on your delivery! Is this an appeal for unity or a ransom demand? :eek:

She doesn't check enough boxes for Joe, and also your latter point.

Midwestern is an excellent box.

And so is vagin--- well, you know.

A Midwestern black woman is obviously identity gold. Anybody come to mind?

From the Congressional Black Caucus list:

Joyce Beatty (OH-3)
Brenda Lawrence (MI-14)
Ilhan Omar (MN-5) and watch every fundy have an aneurysm

I dont think he is a terrible comedian (he is ok) but yeah he is a terrible actor. I could care less if he sucks on UFC cause UFC sucks and has since it went "legit".
UFC is another story of “the wrong side won the war”. Pride was by far better in most ways, it just happened to be heavily involved with the Yakuza.

And yeah, the Unified MMA rules are pretty bad. That’s what happens when boxing people get ahold of it and turn it into “Boxing 2: Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Boogaloo”.

As for Rogan, he’s always come across as a stereotypical “I’ve read about this so I know everything” dudebro, a type of person I can’t stand because I’m f-ing surrounded by them here.

A) I’m about as Left as you.

B) Ok, Boomer.
 
Re: Democratic Challengers: Starting this thread to Own The Libs!

Don’t all y’all wear hoods?

Those are the Righty meetings.

At the Lefty meetings all we wear is our stiff and unbending confidence in The Coming Revolution.
 
A) I haven't seen you at the Secret Satanist Meetings

B) Way to miss the point (albeit funny)
A) Because I actually work for a living.

B) Not missing the point, you’re just out of touch. You’re old, you’re too connected to inside the beltway (via your wife), and you have zero understanding of the interactivity of anyone under 40 and/or people in the actual working class. Most far-Left folks I know are ready to burn anyone who tries to “negotiate”, they have zero understanding of the incremental victory and would rather watch this country burn under Trump and the Republicans if they can’t get 100% of what they want.

A) That's gotta suck. Thoughts and prayers.

B) That's possible, although my Leftism doesn't really gain any succor from inside the Beltway. Even without SIP, nobody in Alexandria or Arlington is coming to the May Day parade. The closest you get to the "Left" inside the Beltway is a handful of Scoop Jackson Democrats who kept the faith and didn't go full Wolfowitz in the 90s, and stayed at Brookings writing about inequality. But Thomas Piketty is not walking through the door of the Reston Wegman's. For that I have to rub shoulders with disaffected academics in the Baltimore burbs and angry black intellectuals who have somehow managed not to be taken out by the klansmen in the VA highway patrol. I don't know the meth lab Bernie Bros you seem to, I will give you that. Mine are all sequestered in the LSE library tut tutting over obvious methodological errors by Karl Marx and mainlining Adorno and Gramsci. And those guys are pragmatists who make Jacobin look superficial.

Bad she sucks or bad don't risk the governorship?

Bad that if you need the bland white bread vote, you got Joe for that. You need someone on the ticket that would appeal to other demographics.

Young, Hispanic or African American, from the south or southwest would be perfect.

Nuke the South, they're gone forever.

The Southwest is the future but the folks here have pretty much convinced me that right now Arctic Appalachia (PA, OH, MI, WI, MN) is where we have to win. So give me somebody those people will suckle to. If it's a white woman, meh, the blacks are actually balls deep in this, they're not going anywhere. I'm a lot more worried about flyover couch potatoes than soul sisters staying home.

Omar is going to get primaried.
 
Re: Democratic Challengers: Starting this thread to Own The Libs!

Omar is going to get primaried.

I know they're going to try, but they're going to try with AOC, too.

My hope is that if these Members' constituents were aware enough to get them in there over whatever tepid wastes of space the DNC preferred, they're strong enough to keep them there when The Man comes gunning.
 
Re: Democratic Challengers: Starting this thread to Own The Libs!

Not by anyone who can win. Dont fall for the hype...

Omar will control that seat for as long as she wants to.

Is it a strongly Muslim district?

They will certainly run an Uncle Tom against her.
