Glenda, PoliBore is retarded. You won't find more than 50 brain cells in total around here. Don't let them get you riled up. Zen.

[Occam]

So, is Sanders gonna lose this?

[shosta]

[Cauliflower Of Love]

The panel on msnbc is aghast, AGHAST at the booing in the Bernie rally when VA was announced.

[Nintex]

Biden seems to have flipped this in the past few days with a lot of voters uniting behind Biden after his South Carolina win, the drop outs of the other candidates and Bloomberg bombing at the debates.

[EightBitNate]

I don't get it with some of you guys.

Obama's Secretary of State was apparently the worst candidate ever. His second SoS was the worst candidate ever in 2004. Now his VP is apparently such trash that you'll be okay with a second Trump term if he's the nominee.

Who isn't trash? Who isn't "worst ever" tier besides Sanders? Was Obama himself trash? I honestly don't get it.

Obviously Biden would be better than Trump, and I would never tell anyone not to vote Biden if they’re in a swing state, but it’s disheartening to get excited for real change and then get smacked down by the status quo. I think the next few weeks will be hardest for Bernie supporters, but when November comes around people will swallow their pride and vote Biden. (though obviously people like Cindi will be too scornful to do this)

[thisismyusername]

Now his VP is apparently such trash that you'll be okay with a second Trump term if he's the nominee.

His VP was trash. I'm sorry you didn't know this until now, but I don't support droning children. Fuck him and Obama. "Change you can believe in," my ass. YAY, I can get married now (#FOREVERALONE!) who gives a shit when my state will still fire me based on my sexuality? "Change I can believe in!" Yeah, fuck off.

Who isn't trash?

Sanders. Bar none.

Who isn't "worst ever" tier besides Sanders?

None. But if I had to vote someone by holding my nose (and note: I fucking don't, this is what you don't seem to get), I'd choose Warren, despite her being a faux-progressive.

Was Obama himself trash?

Yes?



You seem to fail that most of us (or at least me) think the DNC is just as bad as the GOP. "BUT THEY AREN'T BECAUSE <policies that might be a little less shitty here>"

Yeah, Sure. Great. Ok.gif

Call me when primaries are fucking done, closed and open and caucuses. All of them. Do ranked choice voting like most fucking normal countries do. Then we can talk.

[VomKriege]

So, is Sanders gonna lose this?

Definitive answer : Check full results tomorrow morning.

[EightBitNate]

There’s also like a 50/50 chance Biden croaks soon and that keeps my going

[Himu]

I'm not fine with another trump win. But if that's whom the democrats want to rally behind then they deserve the L. I've compomised much of my voting record on democrats that promise things and don't deliver or worse yet, don't even win. No longer. I've also checked out. I'm genuine in my want to move away from America. In my mind, it's out of my hand. I will vote for whom I want to. Not whom people think I should. American medocrity is one of my criticisms of the country. I'm not contributing to that politically any longer. As far as I can tell, it's not my country anymore. I can do whatrver I want.

Fuck settling and fuck voting without values.

Also fuck Obama, his legacy, his administration, and his party.

[VomKriege]

Do ranked choice voting like most fucking normal countries do.

They do ?

Of course Obama was trash, dude didn't even support gay marriage until halfway through his presidency. If Obama ran today he would have to be farther to the left, and how far he is to the left determines how trash he is. Not that hard. If Obama is out here telling us to keep private insurance or whatever then he's trash.

[Himu]

Also, I never said I won't vote. I'll vote. Just won't vote for prez.

[Nintex]

News media a week ago: "Bernie Sanders is a Russian Agent trying to destroy America with socialism"

News media today: "Wow, Joe Biden is doing great!"

[Occam]

Also, I never said I won't vote. I'll vote. Just won't vote for prez.

Eh, you can't fool us, you'll change your mind if push comes to shove.
Having a sane, if demented President is better than having an insane, demented crook for a President.

[EightBitNate]

Biden now the delegate leader

[Nintex]

Biden takes North Carolina.

Bernie might also not get a clean sweep in Vermont.

JOEMENTUM

We need a return to normalcy

More drone strikes abroad

Maybe we should just like...get rid of the position of president

People are actually serious with the drone strike stuff? That isn't just an argument of convenience for you?

No. Obama's war mongering the prime reason I voted green in 2012 out of protest. He campaigned in 2008 as an opposite to Bush's war mongering. It's why I voted for him.

Obama blows.

[Mr Gilhaney]

is more touching an official biden policy? cause i'm all in now that we cant get pete.

[Himu]

Let's talk  about Obama admin not pursuing charges against wall street bankers while countries like Iceland locked theirs up like the criminals they are?

Or Obama basically pardoning Bush's war crimes.

Remember when Obama admin decided not to pursue an investigation on Bush administration out of bipartisanship?

Obama was trash. A regurgitated garbage dump. 1033 seat loss in eight years can't be wrong.

I never regretted not voting in 2010 despite the tea party take over.

They can burn tbh.

McCaskill tying to pretend that Bidens' single official campaign office in virginia is the only force working for biden.

holy shit.

Poor biden came in 4th in fundraising !

Dems just don't care about dark money anymore

Tackle domestic violence, just gotta keep punching at it, punching at it, and punching at it.

if this were a ranked choice country, would you do "1. Green Party, 2. Democratic Party" or leave the second choice uncommitted?

that means she's back in the debates!

The problem with some of you is you don't hate strongly enough.

You look at the Republican Party (not all the voters, but the party itself) and see something vaguely shittier than mainstream Dems. I look at the party and see the greatest concentration of evil since 1945.

You need to hate more.

Hate more by rallying behind Mr Compromise. Mr Reach Across The Aisle? Nah. I do think they're evil, so why are you asking me to cut deals with them?

No confidence if it's an option. I don't really like the greens. But the Republicans weren't an options and libertarians are nuts. I should have just left it blank.

This is one of the most baffling democrstic talking points.

"REPUBLICANS ARE EVIL!!!"

But also "We need someone to compromise with Republicans!"

It's asinine. They don't realize that constantly compromising is exactly how trump came to be. Democrats compromised with a metastasized, cancerous republican party for decades.

They're just as complicit and just as evil.

There in lies the rub. What we are arguing are values. What democrats offer are sport team cultism.

They still lying about Biden winning with no money behind him. Disgusting.

[nachobro]

so i shouldn't vote for trump or biden then?

The value is obviously in eradicating evil from places of power.

Okay Marianne.

Not that it matters because texas is blood red but all your moral self-aggrandizement can't change this reality: you have a vote and you can choose between the regular brutality of capitalism but with twice the pell grants and respect for minorities, or you can choose jackboot fascism, the deportation machine, the slow rot of every institution, pure cuckoldry to the corporate megalith, a blank check to Israel, latin american soft-coups, and the willful ignorance of our coming climate change extinction.

All of your actions are a choice. Saying you won't compromise is just masturbation and you might as well be putting the kids in cages yourself. There's no difference between a Republican who sees this stuff and says "I don't care, I want tax cuts" and you who sees this stuff and says "I don't care, I won't vote for Joe". It's the same egotistical narcissism you think the average American has but you don't.

Making choices between a few suboptimal scenarios is a basic aspect of maturity.

Go for it, dude, but you have to earn the consensus of other people. If you can't win the Democratic primary then you certainly aren't going to win the runoff election in a 3 party race.
