If Jon Bel Edwards wins in LA tomorrow, it is because he ran the way Democrats SHOULD run: STRONG [View all]

I love this guy ! Jon Bel Edwards is one TOUGH campaigner. Yes, he's a social conservative but actually pretty progressive on issues such as retirement security, education, Medicaid Expansion, infrastructure investment, etc. And he POUNDS on his opponent BEAUTIFULLY. That is the kind of Democratic Party we NEED. Take the RePUKES to the WOODSHED !! STRONG ! TOUGH ! CLEAR!
Not this bla bla bla jelly-spined meeley-mouthed horseshit we see WAY too often from Progressives/Democrats. Just YouTube the debates he has had with Vitter-The-Whore-Chaser. He beats the CRAP out of him. It is BEAUTIFUL !! THAT IS HOW YOU RUN!
