didn't even read it.I got to you with that post didn't I? LOL
remember when sanders tried to use superdelegates to overturn the will of the voters who chose hillary and you were a big fan of that?If the result of the Democratic primary is changed from who the majority of the Democratic voters choose by the Democratic party superdelegates, will you oppose it or not?
Don't say it won't be. Don't say it can't be. That's not what is being asked and you know it. You know what's being asked.
If voters choose Sanders, but he fails to earn 51%, then the superdelegates choose Biden, will you support Biden, who the superdelegates want, or Sanders, who the voters want?
Simple question. If you beat around the bush in answering it again, we all know who you will support, it'll be a tacit admission that you will support the superdelegates decision and Biden completely subverting democracy, like the authoritarian you are
Yeah, sure.didn't even read it.
it's your lashing out that's funny.
Biden will lose.Not a great week for Joe. He's not as light on his feet as he used to be. The flip flop on the Hyde Amendment was not handled very well. It may well have to had happened, but his team should have done a better job of it.

Almost all Dems have supported it. Forever the Hyde was a way for both sides to agree to the status quo. That is not working right now.He's supported the 43 year old amendment his entire career. Until now.
I wonder what happened to change his mind?
Henry (Hyde) was my congressman. I knew him well. He was actually a decent guy.Almost all Dems have supported it. Forever the Hyde was a way for both sides to agree to the status quo. That is not working right now.
Tonight on the Newshour, Mark Shields was saying it was because of the red states doing all they can to outlaw abortion. It just looked bad the ham-handed way his staff handled it.
I was being facetious. The Hyde amendment was a truce of sorts that has been broken. Biden has a long track record and politics of yesteryear give a bad look today. Personally, I think it would have been for the best if Biden had retired with Hillary. He didn't and so he has to explain his then-acceptable policies to people who quite rightly say that a woman's right to choose is a right, not something that can be bartered.Almost all Dems have supported it. Forever the Hyde was a way for both sides to agree to the status quo. That is not working right now.

It isn't up to me. There's primaries. We can't even LET BERNIE WIN if we wanted to.If you put Biden up, guaranteed, Trump gets 4 more years
I'll make the same bet substitute BernieIf you put Biden up, guaranteed, Trump gets 4 more years
May we please have a Democratic Party primary before we select the candidate to run in the fall? I'm not all that interested in having either Bernie or Biden in the WH. I'm going to wait until after the debates and probably longer before selecting my choice for the nomination.What a weak basket to put all your eggs in..
They're fucking desperate. You can see it in the way they are packing the early venues before most normal people really start to pay close attention to the candidates. My guess is that the same foreign actors who set up events via the internet in 2016 are still up to it now in an attempt to make these goofs seem more relevant.May we please have a Democratic Party primary before we select the candidate to run in the fall?

Biden is old school and his heyday was in the early 90's, a much more centrist if not conservative era for Democrats. Also systemically racist. I'm not really interested in thawing out Biden from the cryo-chamber and bringing his views into power in this era.
Still, he's leagues better than Trump. I'd vote for him in the fall. I'd vote for Bernie too, even with all my misgivings about him.
Like who?Bill Clinton was way back in the pack in June of 1991. Someone we are not talking about could catch a wave.
Populist progressive left is the only way to defeat TrumpI'll make the same bet substitute Bernie
only if a sizable portion in the democratic party can refrain from the petty fractious divisive recalcitrant attitudes that allowed trump to get swept in 2016 and support the chosen candidate even if they have to clamp their nostrils together in doing so, then the odds will swing slightly in their favor to ship trump out of office.Like I said before, vote for a candidate like Biden in the Dem primary and you're ensuring Trump's 2nd term
When I look at the current field of candidates that qualify for the first debate, given what is known about them, every one of them are head and shoulders above Trump. I'd vote for any one of them and wouldn't need to apologize or say I was voting for the lesser of two evils. They are all acceptable. Even Tulsi Gabbard. I haven't picked who I'm going to vote for in the primary but I don't understand Pad's hysteria over Bernie's impending loss.only if a sizable portion in the democratic party can refrain from the petty fractious divisive recalcitrant attitudes that allowed trump to get swept in 2016 and support the chosen candidate even if they have to clamp their nostrils together in doing so, then the odds will swing slightly in their favor to ship trump out of office.
petulance is the democrats worst enemy.
firstly win the election...then they can bitch about a "San Francisco holiday" (" fly now, worry later ":Thelonious Sphere Monk)...
There are only 12 Populist Progressive left serving in Congress right now. Your mass of Progressives thirsting for Bernie exists only in your imagination.Like who?

Milquetoast centrist candidates like Biden won't energize the progressive base. People don't care enough to go out and vote for a candidate that doesn't offer them anything in return, and "Trump BAD!" didn't work in 2016, it most assuredly won't work in 2020
