      As I'm in Lizzy Warren's camp I fail to see too much daylight between the two of them besides Warren having better thought out and more articulate plans. Oh and yes, Sanders supporters are by and large card carrying loons. Sanders isn't in 3rd place because he's losing votes to Warren. He's in 3rd place because Gabbard, Williamson and Yang are out-nutting even him and thus walking away with one third of his coalition.

        He wants attention. Every time things calm down he drops some ad hom nonsense. Treat him like a tween.

          She still doesn't even have Medicare for All on her website's issues page, that's not even getting into the myriad of other issues she's worse on. Her plan to tax the wealthy is an unworkable mess unlike taxing high frequency trading (this is according to the tax policy center) like every other country, her college plan won't do as much to reduce inequality because she made it overly complex for no actual reason (also TPC), she was ok with bombing Palestinian schools and hospitals up until somewhat recently, signed the letter condeming Obama for supporting the UN agreement against Israeli settlements, voted for Iraq/Venezuela sanctions, voted for Trump's military budget in 2018, her green new military idea is pretty bad, and one significant difference is that she has far less grassroots support or support of anyone other than white college grads (apparently this only matters when talking about Bernie ). I'm willing to give her a pass on being a Republican well into her 40's because she supports better policies now but that lack of consistency isn't exactly ideal for a presidential candidate either.

          And he's not even in third place lol.

          edit: This is basically out of the same playbook from 2016 when they said Bernie and Hillary are 90% the same or whatever which was even more laughable.

              She's definitely on the better end of the spectrum but those policies are all problematic to say the least.

                  That’s probably because she knows that doesn’t speak to the swing voters she would need to win the general election.

                        I don’t give a rat’s about policy differences among the dem candidates. As far as I’m concerned, all they need to do is nominate someone reasonably likable to ensure a win, then hash out the specifics once trump is out of the way. Meaning: the candidate needs apparent and genuine good will for others (the anti-Hillary), a sense of humor, an appearance of humility, a generous spirit.
                        You may not agree; but if you did, who is/are the front runner(s)?

                          This is why I back Amy K. She can reach across and get things done. She's central enough to get those swing voters. Lay the foundation. Biden and Bernie? Too old and loony. Warren? I like her, but she's perfect where she is at. I'm still open book to Kamala and Beto.
                          Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

                            Do you like Mayor Pete? Or just assuming he’s too far of a long shot?

                              He's a long shot, IMO. But, things can change day to day, much less a year from now.
