beyond demographics there's a big difference AOC is a good campaigner who put immense work into a serious effort, and cynthia nixon is a bland campaigner who is mailing it in

Jeb! Repetition posted:The neoliberal meme that everyone left behind by the economy just needs to learn coding is some of the dumbest poo poo New Ides to Make Democrats the Party of the Future A modern contract must take the challenges and opportunities of the 21st century head on. We recently issued 12 bold policy ideas for the digital economy that would do just that. They would all provide Americans with the opportunity to earn a good life. One idea, an American Investment Bank, would allow more capital to flow to people throughout the country. Americans are entrepreneurs — it’s time their government buoyed this spirit. If you’re an entrepreneur with a good idea, it will be easier to attract investment capital where you live instead having to move to Boston, New York or Silicon Valley. A Small Business Bill of Rights would guarantee speed, flexibility, and parity to every single small business in America. For small business owners, it will be easier to grow your business, and navigating government bureaucracy will take a fraction of the time and resources it takes today. You’ll once again be able to better challenge your competitors. We must provide opportunities to gain skills that lead to middle class wages outside of a traditional two or four-year college. We would dramatically expand apprenticeship programs to create 1 million positions across the country.

this is my favorite poo poo via politico: President Bill Clinton veered sharply off message Thursday, telling CNN that Mitt Romney's business record at Bain Capital was "sterling." "I don't think that we ought to get into the position where we say 'This is bad work. This is good work,'" Clinton said. "The man who has been governor and had a sterling business career crosses the qualification threshold." Clinton also went on to say that Romney's time at Bain Capital represented a "good business career." The Obama campaign is in the third week of an all-out assault on Romney's time as a corporate buyout specialist — accusing the GOP nominee of bankrupting companies and laying off workers all while pocketing a profit for himself and investors. But the negative tenor of their attacks on an influential segment of Wall Street have made some Democrats uncomfortable. Clinton is the highest profile Obama surrogate so far to show discomfort with the attacks on Bain, with the former president even praising the company and Romney's record. Newark mayor Cory Booker and Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick also both declined to press the attack against Bain. In Booker's case, he released a YouTube video clarifying his comments after calling the Obama attacks (and Republican counter-attacks on Obama) "nauseating" — all while being publicly chastised by top Obama staffers.

Jeb! Repetition posted:The tragedy of school vouchers is they actually would be better than our current system IF you had simple laws that schools couldn't refuse students or charge more for academic activities than the voucher amount. But that defeats the purpose for most supporters because they just want a system where their kids won't have to be around blacks/poors I don't agree, I think having multiple "competing" schools would just dilute the quality overall even given those stipulations. What leads you to this conclusion though?
