You know, I'm still blown away- why the fuck did Joe Biden think it was a good idea to deflect criticism of his record on busing as a state or local issue? What did Biden defenders say in the media about that?
Yang got destroyed at the debate criticism was fair. Bernies was a good answer made to look bad by strategically cutting it short.
Ugh, I feel like neverbernies are way more close minded than bernie or bust people last year.
It's not a mistake. It's pretty transparent she is taking on new positions to win she doesn't truly believe in/have any intention to follow through on and deciding to walk back any statements which hurt her.She's done this before which makes me think it's not a mistake
LOl really?first you accuse the daily show (a comedy show) of being evidence of the media's "bias" against Bernie and then you accuse everyone responding to you of being neverbernies and being more close minded than you
Castro is pretty questionable when actually put under a microscope. He had a superficially nice debate night but I wouldn't rush to have him on a ticket just yet.After sleeping on it, I think I would love to see a Warren/Castro ticket

It's true regardless of who it comes from; and it's not only coming from white men.There's something about singling out the only black woman prosecutor in the running with the attack "SHES A COP!" that's just....really off putting, especially if it's coming from white men.
Yeah, I don't see why people think Warren isn't an effective speaker/communicator or couldn't hold her own with Trump. I think it's just vestiges of the Pocahontas episode. If you've seen her recently, you'd see she is pretty damn good.
I think a ticket with Warren/Harris would be very strong, and a resounding fuck you to chauvinist establishment types.
It's true regardless of who it comes from; and it's not only coming from white men.
Do you have a link of that and was that on even footing or was she in a superior position then? Because I have never seen her debating convincingly.Anyone that thinks Warren couldn't handle Trump hasn't seen her in hearings, grilling bank and corporate executives and humiliating them.
I don't agree with calling her a cop either, but I mean the criticism directed at her record as a prosecutor.Framing a lazy attack as "true" when said attack is factually false. She is, factually, not a cop.
Do you have any specifics?Castro is pretty questionable when actually put under a microscope. He had a superficially nice debate night but I wouldn't rush to have him on a ticket just yet.

Kamala being a cop is a super positive thing in the general election. She just needs to make it there.
Also, cop vs criminal as an underlying theme of the election would work for this season.
Based on what?Pete Buttigieg is a dark horse. He is the candidate that has the most promise to me. He is someone that can join the left and right of the party without much damage.
Holy shit, that's a really good one.Watching Kamala Harris drag Joe Biden to hell is only entertaining because it's so rare that an old white man is killed by a cop.

I think a lot of you are going to be in for a rude awakening when you realize that working in law enforcement isn't a non-starter for many black voters.The people that this would be positive for would do Harris, a black woman no favors. And being in law enforcement is a non starter for alot of minorities. I like Harris but she has a long way to go to prevent people from just sitting out another election.
She called herself CA's top cop.Framing a lazy attack as "true" when said attack is factually false. She is, factually, not a cop.
Because he comes from the military that is something that gives moderates on the right comfort. But he is against wars and is someone who is credible because he fought in them which pleases the left side. He also has great school credentials.
I never claimed to have an issue with discussing her record as a prosecutor. I have an issue with white people who have probably never had a bad police encounter in their lives degrading a black woman who grew up in Oakland by calling her a "cop," especially when she's not the only prosecutor on the stage, nor is she close to being the worst offender of supporting policies that have hurt black communities. It's gross.

And I've mostly seen admiration, but then again I don't spend much time on social media.I've seen hate and disdain for Harris that I can only compare to Hillary. Maybe even more because she's supposed to be one of us. The prosecutor record and unfortunately her choice of partner just throws her out of line with the current black agenda imo but I'd love to be wrong.
Not sure this means what you think it means. No one is talking about Steve Bullock's past as an AG precisely because nobody thinks he means anything to this race.
How about Biden and Bernie then? The crime bill did more damage to those communities than Harris ever possibly could as a DA.
nor is she close to being the worst offender of supporting policies that have hurt black communities.

I loved watching Kamala dominate everyone. From commanding to speak on the topic of race to herding the group of cats that were our nominees. She really displays strength and leadership in a way that I think would naturally overcome the petty faux strength that Trump tries to exude. Cop vs Robber would make a great election theme. I'm really glad both my favorite candidates(Warren and Harris) had great nights on the stage.
Cop vs Robber is such a nice way to put it
Hmmmmmmmmmmm
As the day goes on, the more I'm believing the possibility of her being the nominee and eventual president.
I didn't respond to that portion because I didn't disagree with it.
no they just facilitated mass incarceration on a wider scale than kamala harris as an AG could have ever hoped to
Yes! She helped put murderers rapists and child molesters in jail how fucking dare she!
The pure ignorance and arrogance for this post astounding. The pure stupidity of:
1. Trying to place the entirety of the failings of the criminal justice system on one Black woman's shoulders.
And
2. Seeing the black community through the lens of people who only experience with criminal justice is as criminals and forgetting the we are also many times the fucking victims. Who need More Kamala Harris's in the system being our advocates. In a broken ass system.
No.. I'm really not. I'm just so sick of this reductive "Shes a cop!" Nonsense.
