"...gonna tell that to the political elites.

And this campaign understands that lemon bars are. not. cookies. In my view -- what they do do, is have certain cookie-like properties such as the crust and are eaten by hand. But lemon bars are really just pan-tartes. So what the American people have to do -- what we have to do -- is come together and say in a loud clear voice: "Lemon bars are not cookies -- they are delicious, but they. are. not. cookies." And when we do that, when we, as citizens of this nation, can unite on the wonderful diversity of confectionery delights that we have in this country, we will have a voice that the establishment in Washington cannot ignore.

This campaign also understands that millions of Americans are working for longer hours for lower wages..."

God drat the white bread people got to him too, huh.
Brown bread is both tastier and more nutritious, Orwell and unemployed people!

quote:

English working people everywhere, so far as I know, refuse brown bread; it is usually impossible to buy whole-meal bread in a working-class district. They sometimes give the reason that brown bread is ‘dirty’. I suspect the real reason is that in the past brown bread has been confused with black bread, which is traditionally associated with Popery and wooden shoes. (They have plenty of Popery and wooden shoes in Lancashire. A pity they haven’t the black bread as well!) But the English palate, especially the working-class palate, now rejects good food almost automatically. The number of people who prefer tinned peas and tinned fish to real peas and real fish must be increasing every year, and plenty of people who could afford real milk in their tea would much sooner have tinned milk — even that dreadful tinned milk which is made of sugar and corn-flour and has UNFIT FOR BABIES on the tin in huge letters. In some districts efforts are now being made to teach the unemployed more about food-values and more about the intelligent spending of money. When you hear of a thing like this you feel yourself torn both ways. I have heard a Communist speaker on the platform grow very angry about it. In London, he said, parties of Society dames now have the cheek to walk into East End houses and give shopping-lessons to the wives of the unemployed. He gave this as an instance of the mentality of the English governing class. First you condemn a family to live on thirty shillings a week, and then you have the damned impertinence to tell them how they are to spend their money. He was quite right — I agree heartily. Yet all the same it is a pity that, merely for the lack of a proper tradition, people should pour muck like tinned milk down their throats and not even know that it is inferior to the product of the cow.

"Hillary can not fail, she can only be failed"

Seriously, the guy won a district in a swing state that was down by votes. He might know something about turning out democrat voters. The argument he couldn't carry a candidate who had far more air time than him isn't an argument against him, it's an argument against that candidate.

That's a weird argument, Pelosi. A guy who wins his district when the presidential candidate doesn't win it isn't something to be ashamed of. It's an asset.
