nope, once the primaries ended i sucked it up and bent the knee. the problem was i couldn't hear her for all of the shitheads promising up and down that she would win because she was The Most Qualified and Electable Candidate Ad Astrum Amen.

and the times i could hear her, it was just plugs for her website.

eh, i still maintain that it was a lack of a cohesive vision and several major major strategic blunders resulting from living in a bubble that sunk her, not a lack of specific policy proposals because thats all she ever talked about the few times (again another strategic blunder) she actually spoke somewhere

the problem is if she said a policy proposal it was anchored down by a bunch of caveats since she seemed terrified of actually keeping every promise she made (which ended up being zero because of that)

uh huh. i'm not arguing with you on that, but you can't remember a message if that message was never delivered in the first place. "i'm with her" "stronger together" "america is already great" and so on.

and it's worth pointing out i am incredibly, incredibly angry at the moment because an allegedly professional organization was less helpful in their reply than they would have been had they outright ignored my email.

ya i get what you're saying i think we're basically saying the same thing at this point.


if she wanted to win, she should have said something like "my primary mission as president will be to create more opportunity and more good jobs with rising wages right here in the united states" because thats what lost her the election

and despite all of that, there are a number of people in the tennessee democratic party who will choose the next chair of the democratic national committee.

like, no, absolutely not. if the only thing you have to show on the state level is 5 state senators out of a chamber of 33, 26 members of the state house out of 99, and you've lost the governorship, you don't get to choose the national chair. coffee is for closers.

you fuckers can come back when you've proven yourself competent at politics.

Complacency would be my guess. Even I was a lame, complacent Democrat in 2016. But due to Trump's victory, progressive democrats are out in full force and have taken over California. Progressives won something like 80% of the delegate seats last month.


I don't doubt progressives are going to do anything they can to get someone else her place. Everyone I've talked to wants her to go.

unfortunately, it's going to be a lot harder than it was a couple of elections ago, because california shifted to a top-two primary a few years back which is a huge advantage for her

you honestly might have a better chance with a ballot proposition saying she's not allowed to be senator anymore

oh no her specific proposals were quite memorable because they were all laughably dumb poo poo that'd get rejected by veep writers for being too stupid like loan forgiveness for business startups and the work study program, which already exists
