If Democrats are seriously going to nominate her again, it will be my pleasure to once again cast my vote for the Libertarian Nominee.

Would you rather that Dems nominate... A SOCIALIST?!?

Elizabeth Warren appeared on the news today and stated in regards to the Mollie Tibbets murder that Americans need to be more focused on "real issues."

She's right though. Do you really think people are going to remember that in 2020? They'll probably try and convict the guy next year before anybody votes.

Dukakis was right too.

I think you are right that nobody will remember this in 2020, but it is not the sort of thing she should be in the habit of saying when it comes to debate time.

Whether they're right or wrong isn't the answer.  It's HOW you answer that matters.

Agreed. I was trying to say that Dukakis was substantively right too as an illustration of the fact that being substantively right doesn't much matter.

Imagine if he somehow won the nomination and then lost to Trump.

He would be the guy that lost to Bush AND ALSO lost to Trump.

What a horrible legacy that would be.

Why would any sane Democrat want Kerry to win the nomination?

Avenatti's latest stunt:




"Make America America Again" is a very clunky slogan. I understand what it's trying to say, but there must be a better way to say it.

A close variant of it is "Let America be America Again," which has actually been used as a slogan in the past (as recently as 2004 by John Kerry) and goes back to a poem by Langston Hughes.

He just WANTS me to rip my hair out!
He's gonna make Beto lose with his cringey #Resistance stuff!

Eh, Beto would lose anyway. No need to overreact.

"I think we need a candidate who -- who is bold and willing to think big."

If that's the case, then I guess we need a candidate other than Deval Patrick.

I mean, what is he trying to do here, make people not support him?
