This is what making noise, protesting, and engaging with government gets you. They start to listen.

Now to see if they'll actually follow through.

I think she might actually be worse, because she clearly believes herself to be some kind of great political mastermind and she's, well, whatever the opposite of that is.

The problem is if they call the bluff. If they get scared but call the bluff and nothing happens, we're hosed.

If they call the bluff and go for Perez, they need to be hit with real consequences, so that next time around they're quaking in their boots.

The failed presidental canidate Bernie Sanders still excites people and gives them hope

https://www.good.is/articles/bernie-sanders-presidents-day

quote:

�Thanks for inviting me to your rally,� joked Los Angeles Times columnist and political cartoonist David Horsey to Senator Bernie Sanders at what was supposed to be a stop on the former presidential candidate�s book tour.

The event, it turned out, was more like a rock concert than a reading. The senator was welcomed with enthusiastic applause, cheers, and rally cries for �Bernie 2020!� from the sold-out crowd of 1,600 people at The Theatre at Ace Hotel downtown. People young and old, of all different ethnic backgrounds, packed into the theater for the event organized by the LA Times as part of its live journalism �Ideas Exchange� series in collaboration with local bookseller Skylight Books.

�As we saw during the presidential campaign, there�s a tremendous interest in Sen. Sanders and his progressive platform here in Los Angeles,� said Suzy Jack, vice president of public affairs and events for the LA Times. �His book is on the bestseller list and people are very interested in hearing his views.�

Reading Weigel's piece this evening about the DNC race stoked those angry embers in my soul, with a quotation about a Perez backer being dismissive and annoyed about being lobbied by Ellison/Bernie supporters.

While the answer is obviously authoritarian elitism, it's still hard for me to reconcile the idea of getting into electoral politics and being angry that you have an active and engaged base. Kick these fuckers out.

Also, in this vein, lol at Manchin getting all pissy here:

quote:

Manchin invites primary challenge from Sanders supporters in call

West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin invited Bernie Sanders supporters to mount a primary challenge against him in a Friday phone call with West Virginians, according to a recording of the call viewed by POLITICO.

The sometimes contentious, roughly 15-minute conversation was largely focused on the prospect of Manchin scheduling a town hall for his constituents � an idea he said he was open to, while also repeatedly asking what the objective would be.

The conference call, which involved several political activists, was recorded by one of the activists, and Manchin can be heard responding to various questions and challenges.

But as the town hall conversation got chippy � and activists on the call brought up points of disagreement with the senator � Manchin exclaimed, �What you ought to do is vote me out. Vote me out! I�m not changing. Find somebody else who can beat me and vote me out."

�Is that an invitation or a threat? I don�t understand,� responded one of the activists.

�Sure, it�s an invitation, you ought to. I can tell that, because we�re on different pages. Are you a Bernie Sanders guy?,� asked the senator.

�Uh, well, I don�t quite see the relevance of that to this conversation,� responded the voter.

�I�m just asking," Manchin said.

�I stand with West Virginians who voted for Bernie Sanders in the primary, in all 55 counties where he won," the voter said.

�Bernie Sanders is not even a Democrat,� said Manchin, who serves with the Vermont independent in party leadership � treading on politically treacherous territory that most other Democrats have avoided at the risk of alienating the party�s restive left wing.

One of the activists posted a live video of the conversation on Facebook publicly.

"They were discussing a difference of opinion and the path forward for West Virginia,� said Manchin�s communications director, Jonathan Kott, confirming that the senator was on the call.

�Sen. Manchin is very happy to have you quote him saying Bernie Sanders is not a Democrat,� he added, noting the Vermonter�s independent status.

Manchin is one of 10 Senate Democrats running for reelection in 2018 in a state that Donald Trump won last November, and he has often broken with other Democrats. Rarely, however, have the breaks been so explicit.

At one point on the call, speaking to one activist, Manchin also says, �What Barack Obama did to our state is criminal,� referring to environmental regulations, after the voter brought up Manchin's vote for Scott Pruitt to become administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency. �They put 400 new regulations on top, and they just smothered us. It was ridiculous."

Manchin is already a top target of Republicans who see his seat as winnable. And he's made few friends among liberal Democrats, who view him as leaning far too right.

I've said this before, but when Ellison announced his candidacy he asked supporters to contact DNC members and (politely) express support.

It was some time later that he made the PLEASE, STOP CALLING announcement.
