I know people that have wikipedia like knowledge on various subjects but they cant take two thoughts and make a third. Zero critical thinking skills.

Incidentally this makes people bad at strategy which sounds a lot like someone who dropped out recently.

I remember Obamas 2008 inauguration address when he referenced people having to wait for hours to vote in Arizona and he said "we gotta do something about that." If only he had gotten around to that at some point! Ah well, sucks to be a poor minority in Texas who wants to matter.

Dolphins deserve healthcare too.

I know I'm being a pussy. I cried my eyes out last night and I'm not ashamed to admit it. I have healthcare and a good job. I have two young kids too. I need to fight for them and for y'all. It makes me sick to see people not care about others.

I'm not giving up but my expectations for this race are that it's over barring a miracle that I don't think is coming. We need to be ready for our own tea party rebellion in 2022

I disagree, I think she just likes loving with numbers without necessarily asking herself what those numbers mean. Which i guess takes some brains, but to me that's not synonymous with intelligence

All Warren had to do to be the candidate is adopt Bernie's platform. Just be the role, if all you wanted was power, a technocrat woman running on the demsoc platform would have destroyed everything in it's path.

She came in to curb Bernie. Anyone who tells you different is lying

Leonard Leo gave a disinterested Trump a list of judicial picks.

Trying to compare that to an ineffectual Warren trying to holler at a BIden admin just licking its chomps at the prospects of paying back its oil corporate banking billionaires thru choice picks and policies, loooooool

The Cameo posted:

The reason people think M4A is in the actual Democratic Party platform is because when Bernie wrote the drat bill and went out and looked for co-sponsors he got a bunch and the media covered it like the party was tacking to this specific policy, and has since not ever bothered to correct themselves on that even as Joe Biden yells about the public option at every debate. People probably think the party approves of the Green New Deal, too, because "their constituency does, hell, people who vote for the other side like M4A and GND too, and the party goes along with the will of the people, right?"

Fastest response to anyone mistakenly thinking Joe supports M4A should be "he says he supports a public option, like Obama did... and we all saw how fast Obama sent that idea up the river negotiating for Obamacare; based on Joe's legislative history, he'd offer it up to die before even getting to the negotiations"

Cool fact, Joe's friend, Tom Carper, nuked the public option in the ACA in 2010.

Seems like he should've been primaried. :thunk:

on the one hand, there's no way Warren runs again

on the other, she's got a big warchest after her big Feb haul only to let her SuperPAC do all her spending for her and then dropping out, but that warchest is only available for use in future campaigns iirc, so

IIRC, his advice in 2016 to reports that Georgia was rigging the governor election by hiding all the voting machines was "vote harder"

It's not about convincing progressives. It's about making Bernie seem like he can beat Trump and while I'm not sure is she helps or hurts that case it is worth investigating.
