 my dad is all in on Andrew Yang, he's even trying to get signatures to get him on the ballot. I hope Yang drops out by the time New York's turn to vote comes around because he's at least got Bernie as his #2 guy.

The Pete Butt subreddit is hilarious right nowquote:if pete has a breakout at the next debate like he had 3 debates ago, i really think he will have the momentum to win iowa. it is kind of hard to break out and dominate when others are attacking you. but he just needs to really explain how idiotic warren and klobuchars attacks are when they attack him. he needs to make it so their idiotic attacks don’t stick. the key to iowa is to get hot late. i think pete can do this oxsnard fucked around with this message at 03:07 on Jan 11, 2020 |

Heck Yes! Loam! posted:I just watched the Sanders interview on Colbert last night and he loving killed it. I posted earlier but my dad who been a Biden fan (electability  ), but he texted me this morning after being extremely impressed by him. Though I think my dad is terminally scarred by how Fox News was able to destroy every democrat and their policy, and is afraid that the populace can't handle subtlety

His whole pitch is electability and if he's got the 4th biggest group in the room he doesn't even have that, so what's the pitch then? I could see him losing people when they start moving around.

Biden supporters are lovely people but they're weak. Mentally, physically, and morally. When it's time to caucus and they see Bernie with the much bigger group, they will go to Bernie. They will see his strength and seek his protection.

I don't want Bernie on the 'attack' except to stay on message re: multi-millionaire/billionaire donations with maybe a spattering of 'y u no m4a??'. Save that poo poo for the General. Bernie going full mad socialist Jewish man on Trump will be so glorious, the memelords of 4chan will have no choice but to support it.

I love when Bernie goes in with the nice guy we're all friends routine but he's just getting ready to twist the knife: "My friend Joe, great guy known him for years... how's the wife Joe, she doing good? Wonderful. Wonderful lady. Anyways me and Joe have our differences. I voted against going to Iraq, Joe voted for it. I voted to help working families, Joe voted to help banks. I voted against NAFTA, Joe voted for it" etc etc etc And what's Biden going to come back with? Probably something about pragmatic legislating or "how you gonna pay for that," and Bernie gets an easy layup with either a quick line from a campaign speech or telling Joe that we pay for everything by taxing the billionaires contributing to Biden's Super PAC. Edit: debate wild card is how much the moderators have the knives out for Bernie. They might try to really go after him this time and he'll need to be ready to take on the usual bad faith questions. Klob and Butt and Biden aren't threats, but "impartial" moderators can get away with framing things really unfavorably if they get the opportunity. Of course if they do go after him hard it means Bernie gets to talk more, which is likely a win for Bernie since he's the one up there who actually has good ideas and believes in what he's saying.

So I don't really feel like digging up a headline for it, but apparently Bloomberg committed to using his funding and infrastructure to campaign on behalf of whoever the nominee ends up being. Supposing for the moment that he actually follows through, what would this end up meaning in the context of Bernie's small donor pledge (because he's going to win, you see)? Admittedly I'm not very familiar with campaign finance regs or the exact details of Bernie's commitments wrt his funding sources, but my understanding is that it wouldn't necessarily violate the letter of the pledge because Bloomberg would essentially be acting as an independent PAC; is there some mechanism by which Bernie can go "thanks but no thanks" and tell Bloomberg to gently caress off and keep his money (to be taxed later) in a way that's actually enforceable?

Well being on Twitter for around the last 15 minutes I can tell you exactly what everyone at the debate is going to try on Sanders. It's all going to be gun control and insinuations about since the NRA doesn't go after him enough he's on the take

I want to believe. I wonder how many of the leftovers in these polls are "never bernies". I've been a part of echo chambers on these forms before. Back in 2015 I drew this: https://www.instagram.com/p/7_GRb9AwtL/?igshid=vc2za9cr0koh Put my bumper sticker on today and I got a weekly kick in going. Here's hoping, y'all.

I don't think I'm wrong. I generally fail though to defend that for any reason other than that I believe his messaging, which is so effective to low-engagement voters from any alignment, is the best chance the Democrats have. I still think about that Joe Rogan podcast, and how his Bernie segment resulted in a libertarian-leaning youtube comment section of all places to be universally united in support of his message. I think if you put any candidate in front of 1000 random low-engagement voters, Sanders would consistently get the most support, and turn the most into engaged voters.

Supposing for the moment that he actually follows through, what would this end up meaning in the context of Bernie's small donor pledge (because he's going to win, you see)? Plausible scenarios (from most to least): 1. Bloomberg is lying and won't do it for Bernie 2. Bernie politely declines and urges him to use his resources for Senate/House/State races. 3. Bernie tells him to gently caress off and Bloomberg runs a bunch of anti-trump ads on his own. That's honestly about the only decent way to respond to that.

I really love the "when are they going to vet Bernie" schtick going around, as if he hasn't been relentlessly attacked for the last 4 years. But I especially love it when it's a ex-Clinton staffer saying it, because it's a tacit admission that they ran an incredibly lovely campaign to not even vet their (essentially) one and only opponent.

This vox piece was good re: black voters https://www.vox.com/identities/2019/11/4/20926701/black-voters-democratic-primary-2020 quote:Take, for example, the aforementioned 2008 Democratic presidential primary. While then-Sen. Barack Obama’s success over Hillary Clinton is often remembered — as is the fact that black voters began to overwhelmingly support him after the Iowa Caucus — what often isn’t as readily acknowledged is that for months before this, there had been a noticeable split in the black voters backing him and the black voters who weren’t. Early in the contest, Obama was supported mainly by younger black voters, as older voters and many black politicians backed Clinton, pointing to her established history in the black community, her work during her husband’s presidential administration, and for some, their belief that Obama wasn’t well-known enough to be electable. Blows my mind that Obama and Clinton were 50:50 among black voters in the South https://twitter.com/jemelehill/status/1172549979602161665?s=20
