Democratic Challengers: Starting this thread to Own The Libs!

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

Excellent news. I hope he STRONGLY endorses in his statement. Joe Biden is the kindest, the bravest, the warmest, the most wonderful human being I've ever known in my life.

Wow, that Kep is soooo clever! Whipping out a quote from The Manchurian Candidate to hide his disdain for Biden while pretending he's calling for party unity! Must be that "last Ivy" drama major degree at work before our very eyes. ;)

And all the Berners are crying on social media now.

Am not engaging. Gonna leave em alone while they throw their pity party.

Don't dance on graves. Leave that for the animals.

Bernie stays in: oh my god how awful!

Bernie drops out: oh my god how awful!

:rolleyes:

Around here at least the intolerant as-sholes aren't the Left, they're the Centrists who keep whining about the intolerance of the Left. :p

I wish these people owned a mirror.

If anything I'm thanking his supporters and obviously his campaign and him. He made the right call and we should welcome them to the Blue No Matter Who campaign with open arms eager to beat our common enemy.

Obviously his supporters are going to go through some period of grief and anger. Let them lash out and mentally work through it. Eventually, hopefully, they'll come around. When they do, be happy to have another friend, even if only temporarily.

I have no problem telling the ones proudly saying they'll campaign against Biden and/or vote for whichever turd the Greens nominate to get bent. Those people are as lost as the Trumpsters. Fortunately, their numbers are small.

Interesting. I've been in DSA meetings in 3 states and that was not a thing in any of them. I've seen it in the Socialist movement but never in the modern DSA community.

I like it.

Well then, that would make you One of the Good Ones. We can be Ones of the Good Ones together. :)
 
Re: Democratic Challengers: Starting this thread to Own The Libs!

Whoever's running the Biden campaign has once again nailed it and its making me a lot more optimistic about him in the general election. His campaign handled the Sanders issue well. No pressure or whining about him remaining in the race. They gave him his space and he's quit far earlier than I think most people would have expected. He also smartly gave Sanders one 1 on 1 debate after Super Tuesday when Biden pretty much had the nomination wrapped up. Again, smart move giving Bernie one more chance to press his case directly. Sanders supporters will of course be disappointed but any talk of the party working against him or him not having a level playing field simply aren't true as perhaps even Sanders himself will acknowledge.
 
Re: Democratic Challengers: Starting this thread to Own The Libs!

From a purely nihilistic point of view, the nine bazillion Twitter trolls who went out of their way to make Bernie look bad by being miserable a-holes at all times have succeeded.

Which is unfortunate, because someone needs to push Biden to the left. Hard.

Just curious but on what issues should Biden be pushed hard left on?

In no particular order:

Universal health care
More progressive (confiscatory) taxes
Gun control
Mandatory vaccinations
Carbon tax
Corporate welfare
High frequency and derivatives trading
Consumer finance protection
Student loan forgiveness
End of religious exemption for pseudo-religious organizations


Did I miss anything?
