Also Clinton's Democratic Party was already quite well established as Republican Lite. That didn't help matters any.

Samurai Sanders posted:I was a teenager when that happened and while I recognized that it was a bad thing, it didn't really turn me off Clinton like it did my parents. My thinking of the time was "of COURSE people lie about having sex with coworkers". Clinton was my playskool president and i couldn't have cared less about a sex sandal. I considered sex just part of the whole deal, throughout history.

WithoutTheFezOn posted:Also John Kerry. Yeah Iowa caucuses that year were all about which candidate had the best shot at beating Bush, as ordained by a bunch of septagenarian local Dem blowhards. I think loving Gephardt got second in our precinct. I assume that strategy and overall demographic persisted in later primaries and it resulted in, well, Kerry. Though to be fair the entire line up was pretty thin that cycle.

Rollofthedice posted:Maybe they were the particular age to be most affected by the Lewinsky scandal. Maybe. well there was the whole Elian Gonzales case too under the Clinton administration, the way it was handled and not done in family court pissed off a lot of cuban-americans in Florida etc, probably was another factor in the Bush presidency other than Nader.

Nessus posted:Is Sanders actually poor? I mean he's in Congress, that's a six-figure income. I thought the poorest legislator was actually Biden (even he was clearing north of 90k) When you google Bernie Sanders net worth you get $330,507, which makes him just about the poorest US senator. It really isn't much, some people have more equity in their house. Mitt Romney makes more than that per speech. So Bernie isn't really poor but he certainly is not rich.

Chokes McGee posted:This is a microcosm for what happens when mutual destruction as a strategy breaks down. Walkers beating him in Iowa, that good enough reason to target him. I know some people think the polls are a joke, that people hang up the phone and say "Hey Martha, I just told this stupid poll guy I would vote for Trump, isn't that a hoot". The problem is that a growing percentage of the US population has a Raging Hardon and wants to take all career politicians to the prison shower for a round of "stop whimpering and pretend you love this". The frightening thing is these people vote. These people voted in a republican majority in congress. A Congress that is doing basically doing nothing because it might effect their chances at the white house, and these people are a little pissed. So a guy runs for office on a "politicians are all idiots", and "I can't be bought" campaign, and these people think "hey this would really piss off the douche bags that are currently in office" so they vote for him. The threat of Trump getting the non-ironic nomination is real. It all depends on how many of these pissed off people there are.

Paper With Lines posted:It is amusing that he will probably win and Wisconsin will be known for one of the most liberal Senators and one of the most conservative Governors. Not quite the same, but the Mayor of Milwaukee from 1948 to 1960, Frank Zeidler, was a member of the Socialist Party when Joe McCarthy was senator from Wisconsin.

I have to admit, the prospect of like 95% of all the Very Serious People in DC being totally apoplectic with frustration sounds beautiful to me. I mean, the downsides are far too great to make it remotely worthwhile, but it's still an amusing thought. (apologies to Paul Krugman for stealing his turn of phrase)

Well yes, but angry old racists don't carry the electoral power they used to. Their candidate's got to convince some of the brown people and women that they hate so much to vote for them if they're going to win.

As a BDSM metaphor, the first one would be admissible if "Dildonald" were respecting their safeword, or if the submissive didn't perceive the need to use it in the first place. I actually think the latter case would've made the analogy better. The second example is a prison rape joke, and those are never funny. Rape is rape, regardless of where or to whom it's happening.
