:toot: No surprises here, DFA endorsed Bernie too. That's what happens when grassroots organizations poll their members to decide their endorsements rather than having their leadership decide themselves, the endorsement goes to whoever has more grassroots support.

I mean, you're right that it's no surprise but was this like the AFL-CIO vote where the ballot was basically "Ellison" or "Nothing"? I'm glad he's getting support but the guy's running unopposed, his closest challenger is a guy who's nearly just like him saying 'eh, maaaaaybe'.

Not thinking anything is a foregone conclusion by any means, but do you suppose that Ellison has built up enough momentum that any challenge from Perez could be too little, too late?

Or is the establishment this hell bent to push through their choice at the expense of winning any future election?

I think Ellison is all but won at this point but I don't understand what of Perez' stuff you think would cost us the election when he's incredibly similar to Ellison?

I think Perez is mainly the Obama alliance's way to say 'hey we have progressive members too who are good' and avoid being left in the dust, which is fine because they do and shouldn't be.

I genuinely think most of Clinton's loss of appeal came from him becoming a sad skeleton after his surgeries. We loved fat party animal Clinton.
