      I hope our nominee is somebody 50% of voters could not name right now. I'd actually go further and say I hope our nominee is somebody neither of us could name right now. I have that little respect for the Democratic party as currently constituted.

      We need to push the useful geriatrics into the back room and let them do their work, and we need to flush out all the other geriatrics. The GOP won in part because they were perceived as "doing something" and as having some energy. Our gerontology ward in Congress and on the campaign trail is an enormous liability. We have all the right ideas but our messengers do not inspire anybody.

They live in a land of make believe but they all live in it so it becomes reality. That's what Roger Ailes understood: just lie. Don't even bother massaging or selectively editing the truth. Just lie. Whoever calls you on it, say they're lying.

          With my preferred candidate out now, I'm going to sit back and either let somebody wow me or see who has the best chance to win. Position wise Dems are like 95% in lockstep on issues, so I'm not too concerned about that. Its going to be more of who can articulate those positions in a clear and concise manner for a low interest electorate. As an aside, I also think we need a nutcutter who will neuter Chump and stuff his balls down his throat. I want someone who will call out and attack the GOP in its entirety as the corrupt money laundering treasonous cult that it is!

          Age doesn't matter to me. If 77? year old Joe Biden is crushing it in the primaries and in general election polling than I'd happily support the dude.

          That works up to a point. We were told for years that we were winning in Iraq and the war was almost over. That lie flew for awhile but eventually voters got sick of being BS'd to their face and kicked the GOP completely out of power. Likewise Chump can say mining and steel jobs are coming back, but if they don't eventually voters will tire of being lied to. Not that these Chump voters will all suddenly become Dems but reinforces the perception that Trump is insane and doesn't know his a sshole from a hole in the ground.

            Bernie could be in federal PYitAP by 2020 if he ends up being part of this Russia thing.

              More likely than not your nominee will be someone who’s name 50% of the voters can’t pronounce..... and will be DOA

                You guys should be smarter than to get your news from a braindead moron like joe, who not surprisingly, was too dumb to grasp the nuance of what Warren said.

                Watch the actual Meet the Press interview. It's very clearly "I am not running for president(right now)". She gets pressed multiple times to vow that she will serve her entire six-year term if re-elected to Congress and gives non-answers every time. I'm not sure how anyone can watch that interview and come away with any other impression than that she is absolutely running for president in a couple years.

                  Thank you for the compliment. Unlike you, apparently, I have a sense of humor and am a fan of sarcasm and deadly puns and/or bon mots.

                  You take your side waaaayyyy to seriously. And similar to 41, your posts are full of hate. While that may keep you alive, it does not well serve this board.

                    I think Bernie's wife is more likely to end up in The House of Striped Sunshine over ripping off that college in Burlington than Bernie is.

                      Age matters to me because having a non-geriatric who can look normal on TV is just another bonus against a 74 year old orange baboon.

                            I actually think it's a rather likely scenario that none of the current prospects ends up with the nom.
