Well, that is what happens when you buy computer software and apps from Professor Harold Hill....
Can't do a thread about Iowa without a Music Man reference.

What does any of this have to do with electability? My point is that I suspect these attacks of being unelectable are bad faith. These centrists just don't like Bernie and oppose his politics. That's fine, but dressing that up as "unelectable" is disingenuous.

*I* don't think he's got a chance in the general and I can assure you there is not bad faith associated with my view.

Have they? The article starts with this:


Do you have any idea how little credibility O’Keefe and Project Veritas have with videos they produce. Here's a clue: It almost reaches the Outer Core of the Earth.

Psstt:notice how this poster always has sources that he knows will get the goat of people here?

Anyway, the GOP has people who want to shoot anybody who they think is a socialist...….

I am no fan of Bernie, but that sotry is a load of crap.

It's a bad faith attack, a post-hoc rationalization for their opposition to Bernie, his followers, and his politics. They wish to hang this "unelectable" smear around Bernie's neck to scare away potential voters.

And the much despised centrists are exactly who the Dems need to win in November...unless you are a devout believer in the vast hidden tribe of progressive voters out there in Ohio,Wisconsin, and Florida...

Bears repeating. It's the primary reason I dread a Sanders candidacy.

That Bernie cannot come off as anything but the eternal Sixties radical will not help much.
His supporters love it, I think it is a turn off to most voters, though.

BTW, low information voters see reparations as a cash payout to blacks or something. That's not the kind of reparations most candidates mean.[/url]

Doesn't matter. That's how the GOP will paint it - to great effect. Any cadidate (primary or final) who talks of reparations is too stupid a candidate to win.

More name calling and Bernie can’t win assertions as fact.

Will not talk about policy or the deep justice problems Bernie promises to tackle for ordinary Americans. Aside from framing it as socialism and hated of the market idols.

Why?

Voting Democrat isn't doing something, though. It's just giving the keys to the system to a different faction. A faction produced by the system. A faction that is sheltered and nurtured by the system.

You know why Obama got elected? He promised Change. You know why Trump got elected? Because Obama didn't deliver.

C'mon, theprestige, that's got very little, if anything, to do with Trump winning.

Bernie is now at 40.8% to win the nomination, according to London bookies. that's up about a percentage point today. Biden is at 32.4%, but he's got a lot more variance in the quotes being offered by different betting shops; his odds range from 26% to 38%.

Warren is also getting a little bounce in her chances; she's back up to 9.8% after being down to 7.7% yesterday. So far no change in the shares of Klobuchar preferred.

BTW, that Des Moines Register poll? Apparently showed Biden in fourth place.
