8. If there is no economic justice in U.S.

policy, some tone of admonition is required because it reflects a moral offense that the wealthy have exclusive advantage and the poor must struggle for basic participation and dignity.

His campaign appearances this year have been made to packed venues.

29. Comes off as an angry white man.

So? An old white man can't be angry with what this country has become and the direction of the Democratic party?

Besides, that's an old meme. Try a new smear.

I don't see how being a white man, angry or not, has anything to do with anything?

Hillary comes across as a queen awaiting her coronation? That's much worse!

4. The GOP relies on bluster (Trump),

while the three Democratic candidates tonight are using fact-based arguments and seasoned points of view.

I think the job they're all applying for is best held by practitioners of the second model.

38. Sam, howdy right back, and

good to see you are alive and kicking here on the boards.

I lean left so Bernie's my guy in the primary, and the blue ticket is my ticket in the general.

The GOP primary field -- no matter which year -- usually either scares me or makes me sick to my stomach. Usually both.

It makes me uncomfortable when DU'ers I like suddenly disappear. One wonders if some disturbed Republican driver is eliminating Democratic voters in a new but deadly run 'em off the political road" maneuver. Always check your rear view mirror....

Stay safe,

By the time I go to bed on the West Coast, the MSM will have declared Hikllary the winner, no matter how disastrous it was for her by any objective standard, and the residents of Camp Weathervane will try to rub in it our faces all day tomorrow as if the MSM is any more reliable an observer of these matters that DWS herself, and then tell us the Bernie just isn't ready for prime time and call any notion that system is rigged a conspiracy theory. just like Tony Blair used to tell anti-war protesters whe he and Frat Boy plotting to turn Iraq's oil over to their corporate cronies.

Who are responsible for bringing us the debates are independent of the outcome, that is how long we will have this situation.

Wasserman Schultz is as corrupt a they come, and yet she gets to be front and center.

here is what one writer over at Salon said, and I think they make some very good points.

I mean, a debate on the Saturday before Christmas?
