There's a "post debate special with New Hampshire voters" thing going on and so far Amy and Bernie are the two winners from the comments I've heard. And that Pete is naive.

god how funny would it be if the one time KLOBMENTUM was real it was to kill Pete's surge and wind up with them scrabbling for second while Bernie wins safely?

Honestly Steyer won, but since he's apparently only in the race to get his senpai Bernard Sanders to notice him, I am okay with this.

So far everyone they've talked to since I've turned this on was blown away by Amy jeez. I think Pete really blew it tonight.

I really feel like the plan is to gently caress everything up so there is a brokered convention and then they can gently caress Bernie without seeming to favor one candidate.

For bonus "worst timeline" points, Hillary Clinton wins the nomination.

I can see what you mean. It comes down to whether or not the big media entities who are able to shape these narratives are getting their marching orders from the same place, or if they're all operating in a self-interested way that comes from ownership that is anti-Bernie, but focused on a different centrist candidate that they believe would favor them

She did randomly imply that Bernie takes PAC money from billionaires, which was pretty hosed up. I think that wasn't intentional, though.

Her issue is that she decided not to be progressive but has nothing to separate from the other 7 centrists there. Wth is her pitch even? Playing some kind of price is right strategy where she's a millimeter to the left of everyone else but nowhere near Bernie. Ok? Where is the large pool of voters that think Bernie is too progressive but Amy is too centrist?

This was a great debate because my dad, who was in for Bloomberg, saw it and now he really likes Bernie

He told me that the reason was that the other candidates, when asked a question, would go into long winded "when I was a child bla bla bla and that's why we need to fix this" while Bernie actually drilled into the problem and talked about plans to solve them

yea that may be 'the plan' but that plan still has the variables of four derranged centrist sociopaths bleeding each other's votes who all genuinely seem to believe they deserve to be president with their own factions and supporters, while Bernie remains pretty well unchallenged for the 'we pay for it with loving money, okay? Next question' lane of actual progressiveness.

She was supposed to be a trojan horse for the left like Obama, where she would draw away Bernie’s voters and then ideally govern like Obama. Didn’t work though

Bernie doesn't need to explain what he did in the past because his political positions have been more or less completely consistent across his entire political career. What he believes now is largely what he believed 50 years ago. This separates him from... oh right, every single other candidate on stage.

The thing is though was that she was actually succeeding pretty well in that role and even polling ahead of Bernie early on, but then she flipped on M4A and suddenly veered into the centrist lane. If she had just stayed the course of pushing progressive policy - even if she was lying her rear end off while doing so - she'd be way more viable right now imo.

exactly, it ends up being a huge advantage for Bernie, if only because they still have yet to unite behind a single succdem, it allows Bernie to carry the standard of progressivism unopposed

it rules.
