Booker is too much of a pro-Wall Street, hawkish Democrat for me. More so than Clinton, who I think is attacked to unfairly for this by fellow Liberals, considering she is where the median Democratic pol is. But I can see more fiscally conservative Democrats and African Americans supporting Booker.

One poster on another thread, thinking it's all dandy, wants the status quo because to change to a Bernie-type Democratic Party—which is more in line with the Franklin Roosevelt/New Deal Democratic Party than the Bill Clinton/DLC/Third Way Democratic Party—would deliver huge Republican majorities in both houses of Congress.

You do realize that even before Clinton, the Democratic Party was riddled with conservatives, right? Far more than today. Don't you ever wonder why, despite such large, enduring majorities in Congress, New Deal-esque stuff was never passed unless Democrats experienced massive gains, such as in 1933-1939, or 1965-1967?

You'll never be satisfied.

Of course he won't. He wants socialism, that's probably not going to happen in the US any time soon.
