Because I'm not treating voting as a consumer choice, but rather voting for someone to represent the party, and it's clear that the partia moving towards Bernie.

Electability is my #1 concern. My political preferences are that workers should organize within a worker's party, and you can't vote for that, so everything else is just harm reduction within bourgeois dictatorship

Voting for Hillary using the electability arguement is pretty funny in hindsight.

She's lost to the more inexperienced GOP canidate in US history, a literal reality TV show star.

I remember during the primaries bringing up the fact that 40% of the country loving hated her and had hated her for twenty years, and being told that that didn't matter, they only hated her because of right wing smears, she's actually really good.

Daou taking so long to come around I think was partially his belief that the Democrats would rise up and do something about it.. any... day... now...

And now we're a year and a half into TRUMP and the Democrats still haven't done loving poo poo and are actively blocking candidates who want to do poo poo about it. At some point people are gonna wake up. Many people realized it right away on 11/9, others took weeks or months to come around.

part of why trump is so invincible is that you can't confront him without confronting the massive problems in american democracy as a whole, since he's just a symptom of that

the rich understandably do not want that to happen

this was also why bush got away scot-free

If by "write" you mean "explore ghostwriting options on," them just about all of them.
