zegermans posted:Voting now to be conducted by ranked choice, except the ranks are "how enthusiastic are you to cast this vote" Yes, that would be unironically quite helpful, when people only can cast one vote. It's also known as instant runoff. Anyway, it doesn't matter, people voted for her due to the myth of inevitability and betraying the party by not choosing her, now that myth is dead, so people aren't going to support her hypothetical candidacy just because they feel they have to.

steinrokkan posted:Lol, you assholes have been yelling at people for years that voting for anybody but X is throwing the vote away and making the bad guys win (not just in abuela's case!). Even today the major conspiracy theory of this cycle is that scorned Berniebros voted for Libertarians / Greens, and so betrayed the party that welcomed them - if you truly believed that people had a legitimate choice in the election beyond the preordained safe candidates, you wouldn't be among the imbeciles promulgating this view. People had the choice in the primaries, the general was about averting fascism. You're conflating the two. No one said a vote for anyone other than Clinton in the primaries was a waste

lol @ the idea that people weren't pushed during the primaries to vote for Hillary. and that hillary wasn't the only candidate receiving attention for a majority of the primary process it's even a loving CSPAM meme that she was hailed as the un-defeatable pragmatic statesman by every self-styled political analyst chode (while Bernie was a loon who should vacate the stage not to damage her). gently caress, tons of people were literally arguing that primary debates should be banned because they exposed hillary to attacks but im absolutely sure that you would just accept say Lincoln Chaffee as the winner of the primaries without trying to convince people against voting for him steinrokkan has issued a correction as of 16:23 on Sep 5, 2017 |

“The variety of candidates is a positive here, and many of the lesser known can serve as a cudgel to move the more established candidates further to the right. In this scenario, we don’t want to marginalize the more extreme candidates, but make them more ‘Pied Piper’ candidates who actually represent the mainstream of the Republican Party,” read the memo. “Pied Piper candidates include, but aren’t limited to: • Ted Cruz • Donald Trump • Ben Carson We need to be elevating the Pied Piper candidates so that they are leaders of the pack and tell the press to [take] them seriously."
