(2,851 posts)I sat there and the more he talked the more disappointed I was in him. He needs to either get on onboard with the program or go off on his own. I feel that his own sour grapes about not getting the Democratic nomination is demonstrative of his own variety of thin skin (tRump doesn't own the patent on that!) and, to be honest, I'm going to put him in the same category of liberal deplorables as Susan Sarandon, and dodgy ideologues like Kompromat? Jill Stein whom, as far as I'm concerned can all go to hell.
Ossoff did ALL the heavy lifting with his supporters and all he needed was a teeny, tiny percentage of voters to move in his direction. Folks like Bernie Sanders could have helped him (IMO), but they sat this out. I also am pointing a finger of blame for all the other Dem candidates in the race who didn't have snowball's chance in hell of pulling anything out at the end, who could have announced WEEKS ago that they were going to drop out of the race and throw their complete support and efforts toward an Ossoff win. All he needed was less than 1% of the votes, and it appears he might have gotten them absent these ass clowns and folks like Sanders.
