I think you are right. comradebillyboy Nov 2017 #35

Your feeling is wrong. pangaia Nov 2017 #60

You tell me all about it. GeneMcM Nov 2017 #62

Lol. Brava ! pangaia Nov 2017 #65

It's not like we'd have won the Wisconsin Senate race if only we'd gone with a bland centrist. Ken Burch Nov 2017 #74

I supported Bernie, and would have supported Warren, woodsprite Nov 2017 #64

He wasn't running to keep Hillary out and it's not his fault that we got Trump. Ken Burch Nov 2017 #6

Well said! silverweb Nov 2017 #8

That he did...he implored his supporters but the simple fact is he stayed in the race too long. Kirk Lover Nov 2017 #25

Yes I can and I did at the time. He should of gotten out when it stopped being viable...and he Kirk Lover Nov 2017 #34

We're not going to get there by refusing to ever run on those ideas. Ken Burch Nov 2017 #75

Not cave. Each side meets the other halfway. Ken Burch Nov 2017 #76

Kamala would be smart to wait until 2024. InAbLuEsTaTe Nov 2017 #51
