(1,284 posts)And all of our nominees, even Mayor Bloomberg, are infinitely preferable to the unindicted co-conspirator playing at president.
Why? Simply because none of them are sadists.
Labels are meaningless these days. What exactly are conservatives conserving as the bad actor tries to burn it all down? We can all see a lot of enabling, but no conserving.
Do believe we could beat this kleptocratic nonsense with a potted plant. Seems like everyday another friend, or associate states their unequivocal support for whoever the democrats nominate. Most of these folks are life long republicans. Many voted for the bad actor.
Agree with Senator Sanders it will be harder to take the Senate and keep the House at the midterms. He might win reelection, after all he has a ready made excuse-- he can blame us for not revolting (against him, should he win? He surely likes his 1960's jargon). Or he can blame whoever he thinks the "democratic establishment" is.
Maybe Senator Sanders will surprise us all in a good way. It does not look likely at the moment, I agree. Yet, the man is not a sadist so whatever else he may be, or whatever century he is stuck in (20th-- 1060's), he is a better choice than the president we have.
Take heart, nonetheless. It isn't over until a candidate reaches the magic number.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
