njbuff Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 I'd rather watch a replay of the Bills losing to the Texans. It might be less miserable. ? 1

LSHMEAB Posted February 4, 2020 Posted February 4, 2020 Bernie is winning this caucus and this nomination. I'm sure his policies are not (at all) popular in these parts, but he's the only candidate on the left that anyone is voting "FOR." They tried the vote against Trump method last time and failed. And I believe Bernie would win Michigan, which is gonna end up being a pivotal state. People there are just frustrated because it flat out sucks. They're still not doing well despite the strong economy, so enough of them will be very open to trying a different "radical" approach.

They've already begun to cheat (again) though, so he likely will not be the nominee. 3 1

I think they've been backed into a corner and the Sanders folks are VERY aggressively trying to ensure this thing is fair. We shall see. 1

If you're not doing well with this economy, you deserve a millionaire candidate who owns three houses while yelling at everyone that millionaires are the reason you're not doing well in this economy. 1

I hope you're right -- but I just don't see a leopard changing its spots. The question will be, if they do cheat Bernie again, what happens next? 1

I think that's a forgone conclusion regardless of who wins the nomination (I know we disagree there). But I should have clarified, I meant to ask what would folks like yourself and others who consider themselves democrats (I may be wrong about your identification -- please correct me if I am, no disrespect intended) and/or Bernie supporters do with regards to the party itself? It's hypothetical of course, it's just a scenario that intrigues me. ********************* 1

As we all mentioned in 2015, when Hillary was coronated, Thanks to the selfishness of Barack Obama, the Democrat Party had been decimated. There are simply NO younger leaders. This is STILL the case. Who would be able to position themselves for 2024. . 2
