Sanders backers take over California Democratic Party

[Since I'm the mad scientist proclaimed by myself]

Before anyone tries to claim that the party was already liberal, every top Democrat in the state endorsed Hillary in the primary. She got all the superdelegates. And the party declined to endorse 2012's Prop 39, a progressive tax which passed with 61% of the vote.

Clinton was basically identical to sanders at that point.

Taking over parties through abuse of turnout in undemocratic caucuses shouldn't be celebrated.

Woo-hoo. Go all liberal all the time.

Where do liberals stand on how to cook their steaks?  Need to know what not to order tonight ... or do they reject steaks all together?

If there's one thing liberals hate, its the taste of Alice Scarlet's delicious chicken sandwiches.

I wonder if the moderate cubicle slaves in the silicon valley will still come out to vote if the Sanders/Warren wing takes over.

It's not like we need them. The Democratic coalition is big enough that we can afford shedding some dead weight.

Coalition building: alienating a culturally influential and decently sized part of your current coalition in an attempt to appeal to a less reliable group of rural whites that aren't even common in your state.

Apparently elitism and dismissive attacks on a group of people is okay if you don't like them.

Look who's talking about elitism.  Give me a break.

Missing the point.

I don't want to argue with you.  I hope you're happy with the libertarians.
