36. Somehow I am the lynchpin to this mess

You need to calm down and quit burning food. It isn't healthy.



I dare to say you would not be so rude to any poster who had a different sigline.
That reveals who you are.

I put him in there to show that he isn't the boogieman to all on this board. I honestly think he AND Joe are too old for the presidency.


I do love his and Warren's platforms best, with Inslee snuggled in closely. And my ballot will have the D marked when I send it in. But that doesn't mean I like a portion of my party at all.


I have voted for the D on ballots and frankly, I think your sentiment which is shared by many here is unhinged. We are not supposed to be fighting last election. I will add that if the front runner follows the same campaign plan as the last one, we may lose again. Thousand dollar dinners, listening salons and flying over states is part of the reason we lost.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Undecided
