2020 Democratic Primary Thread: Focus on House & Senate races
- Thread starter mc_brew
- Start date
as far as running a campaign goes it seems there is an argument for building popularity for your ideas vs saying my ideas aren't going to be popular enough so I'll need to change the rules
which is more likely, getting 60 votes for UHC or getting institutionalists like Shumer to remove the filibuster? Both seem unlikely so play your hand until the deck is shuffled

If Sanders is unwilling to end the filibuster his campaign is DOA.

I am under the impression that if they win the senate and presidency, they will get washed in 2022 anyway.
You have dudes with no political capital trying to raise their profile as if we can’t see they have no real juice. Castro can’t carry his own state, why is he running? Beto suffers from the same disease. Eric probably can’t win a primary battle against that old ass Feinstein. Why is he running?

many old, mentallySanders picks and chooses his spots in a perplexing manner.
people are...let's keep trying to put 80 year olds in the white house, brehsa 79 year old would get laughed out an interview in 99% of places but we keep putting these fukks in the forefront of running the highest offices in the land,
a strategy by the republicans, yea. split fundraising, cause deep divisions amongst similar sets (centrists, liberals, progressives) as well as across factions, and exhaust our attention spans. republicans don't have a wide a coalition to bridge when they have a large field full of fighting, dems do...this shyt will end up being full on fukkery

seems like so many of his backers are anti excess wealth (tax them, they shouldn't hoard resources, the 1%
), surely millionaires fall into excess wealth...follow a leader form a demo you spend half your time railing against, brehs

There are very important things in the tax returns that are not in the financial disclosures. They dont even show how much taxes were paid. lol

So you're saying rich people can't betray their own class?
Well, considering he's been the Senator and before Congressman from VT, a small state, with no national profile of his own... he was on the poorer end of people in Congress.
When he ran in 2016, his net worth was only in the few hundred thousands. :bernielaugh:
