I thought Buttigieg was an interesting candidate until he blamed the Gaza massacre on Palestinians and AIPAC showed up to support himI'm seriously starting to drink the Pete koolaid. As a queer person myself, though, I'm so afraid that socially conservative dems and independents will - at the very last minute - not give him the vote because of his sexuality.

So weird to watch Crazy Bernie on@FoxNews. Not surprisingly,@BretBaier and the "audience" was so smiley and nice. Very strange, and now we have@donnabrazile?
There was talk of Biden having issues with getting support from bundlers. I think there's the fear from the establishment that Biden will implode due to gaffes.
Someone like Pete or Beto doesn't have the same baggage, but at the same time are also charismatic. In 2016 Joe's messaging was that he intends to be a One Term President, which doesn't favor people who are looking for stability.
What are you talking about. Did you actually read what any of what that article and tweets said? There are talks from party flanks about "how they can stop Bernie" not "how can we all cooperate and support who has the most supporters whoever that may be."He is the front-runner by a large margin and is still being seen as the victim? Good Lord. He and his fanbase infuriate me.

YesI'm not sure I get it as Trump is always messy in his tweets, but is he really attacking Fox News implying they staged it in Bernie's favour?
lol he does really turn against anyone, even his most blatant lapdogs
Absolutely. Doing that smug right wing thing of going "STRANGE, HMMM? INTERESTING, EH?" to invite you to invent your own conspiracy theory to explain away any good news or performance by a Dem candidate.I'm not sure I get it as Trump is always messy in his tweets, but is he really attacking Fox News implying they staged it in Bernie's favour?
The only person Trump is loyal to is his daughterlol he does really turn against anyone, even his most blatant lapdogs

Whatever is needed to pedal the "Bernie supporters are whiny and unbearable" stereotypeWhat are you talking about. Did you actually read what any of what that article and tweets said?

You guys do realize it's ok to not like Bernie and, gasp, even have strategy meetings to try to stop him?
It's not like they are trying to ban him from running. Let's wait until Bernie gets at least accused of running an underage sex ring in a pizza shop before whining about unfair attacks.
Let me dumb it down for you.
Dems: We need to rally together to beat Trump.
Also Dems: We have to STOP BERNIE.
Leave Hillary in 2016, your establishment is showing.
Last time I checked Bernie wasn't the nominee so what's your point?
No, it's not okay because Bernie will naturally defend himself and he'll still get called divisive and destructive by the same people.You guys do realize it's ok to not like Bernie and, gasp, even have strategy meetings to try to stop him?

Does Bernie Sanders hate babies?
How hypocritical since he has a few of his own. And some grandchildren.
DNC is supposed to let the process of its base and voters decide who wins the primaries. Not reinforce the idea that it's a group of party elites pulling the levers to influence who the primary winner is.Last time I checked Bernie wasn't the nominee so what's your point?
I highly doubt there would be any outrage at "we need to STOP BIDEN" on here

If you don't understand why all of that shit is gross and flies in the face of the idea of Democratic Party being more democratic then I don't know what to tell you.
It's crazy to see so many starting to acknowledge Bernie as the front runner after this debate, when all the time before he was "no chance" candidate. Just based on that alone I think this town hall was a major success.He is the front-runner by a large margin and is still being seen as the victim? Good Lord. He and his fanbase infuriate me.
If that's the case then I'm mistaken, but the article's wording very much makes it sound like it's high ups in the party leadership of the DNCThe DNC is letting the process roll out.
I think you're confusing individual Dems with the party apparatus.
Grandchild Bernie hates Grandparents. Hypocrite.
capital D's don't realize their paranoia about Sanders is an endorsement of him
He is the front-runner by a large margin and is still being seen as the victim? Good Lord. He and his fanbase infuriate me.
I'm so tired of Bernie and his supporters being vilified and getting called divisive all the time when shit like that Stop Bernie article pop up. Just let the freaking primary voters decide.
No, it's not ok. It's a conflict of interest. Let the people decide.You guys do realize it's ok to not like Bernie and, gasp, even have strategy meetings to try to stop him?
He has been a front runner since he entered the race per polling, probably since 2016 actually. The town hall didnt change that. Whether that tranfers to him getting the nom remains to be seen. We're a long ways off.It's crazy to see so many starting to acknowledge Bernie as the front runner after this debate, when all the time before he was "no chance" candidate.

one underrated quality of bernie sanders is his ability to make literally everyone of all political walks of life act like a lunatic
for real. Comrade Sanders writes itself and would play into the red scare thing so much better. "crazy bernie" sucks

Confirmed: Bernie Sanders is the Moon Presence.one underrated quality of bernie sanders is his ability to make literally everyone of all political walks of life act like a lunatic
why are you asking me this lol
People on the internet don't realize that they are actually a minority representation of the population.

Many on this forum only acknowledge polling when it agrees with their opinion.
that's a neat article, thanks for sharing
if only there were some other way to get a representative sample of the voting population to measure a candidate's viability
oh well
