dissing millions of democrats as some sort of enemy is not the way to become nominee

[msongs]

thinking that after a lifetime of condemning the democratic party and its voters there will be a revolution is delusional at best. the attitude is just as important or perhaps more important than issues, especially when there is no big gap in shared issues.

1. He wants to represent a party he spent his life hating and trying to destroy.

Democrats owe him NOTHING.

4. "Democrats owe him NOTHING." --- Perfect!

Democrats owe him NOTHING.

Perfect!

I couldn't have said it better myself. There's nothing to add (except to tell you that I have nothing to add.)

2. So is dissing millions of Democrats

who think that the party has gone too far in the direction of securing big money over the best public policy

[NurseJackie]

6. Nobody is doing that.

7. Yeah, after they did there 20 million person march lead by Sanders et al those millions of

... democrats worked with the party for the better.

Back on planet earth that didn't happen

11. This is what the OP is about

The other dems who have campaigned have not wanted to secure big money instead of having the best public policy. Most people recognize you can't change campaign laws or create any policy unless you actually win, and it's pretty impossible to win with the current rules - and win the way we need to, with the house and senate as well - unless you have money. That's called being realistic, not "wanting to secure big money at the expense of" anything.

And "the best public policy" is possible, practical, and will actually help people without causing other problems that will hurt them. People have different ideas about how to make that happen, but no Dem. candidates want anything but the best public policy.

This type of phrasing is exactly the problem. "If you don't support Bernie you are into securing big money over having the best public policy." I'm so tired of these assumptions.

3. K&R, Occam's Razor; Sanders believed he had enough voters to offset losses from the center.

His mistake was believing he was the definer of what left was ... the M$M fed his delusion of grandeur

5. Kick & recommended.

8. I support many bernie policies but not Him. repeatedly telling me to go away is not good nt

[beachbumbob]

9. to the extreme left, we are the enemy. Simply put, ideology trumps rational thought on both extremes

The they think they fail because we will not bow down to their superior thoughts and ideas. They DON"T entertain the thought their ideas won't work or suck

10. He can't have it both ways

He and his team's squirming interviews about the new ad are telling, too. They deliberately used highly edited Obama voiceovers from several different times to make it seem like Obama was, if not endorsing, certainly supporting Bernie.

Craig Melvin did not come to play today!

He takes the Bernie’s Deputy Campaign Manager Ari Rabin Havt to task for stitching together audio in that Obama/Bernie ad and for this:

“So, Barack Obama we love but his Vice President, we’re suspicious of his policies?”
