Believe it or not, we have access to the internet.

When a member posts a link, especially without explanation, my assumption is they agree with the entire article. Otherwise they wouldn't have posted it.

This country elected Trump. That was the response after 8 years of liberal/progressive leadership.

Any candidate that thinks they have a shot cannot cannot cannot, CAN FUCKING NOT, say they want to flip it back in the other direction again.

A realistic contender will need to lean really hard toward the middle and maybe even a bit over to the right.

i agree. by that logic it would rule out almost all the Democrat hopefuls except for Biden and a few others like Hickenlooper the former CO Governor. Mayor Petey only looks centrist because he's surrounded by leftist loonies.

my friend who lives in CO is a conservative republican who voted for Trump likes this guy based on his terms as Governor. if Hickenlooper wins the nomination i'll be interested in who he'd vote for. odds are it would still be Trump.

I want Hickenlooper to get the nod just to see how Trump makes fun of the guy's name.

Mayor Pete is a leftist. And a loon.

that will change when he has to start making policy announcements.

Biden is done. the powers that be are handing him his hat. unless he suddenly decides to go full on lefttard to stay in the good graces of the DNC.

Trump Bad.

Gun Control - They don't want to take our guns, only the ones they don't like.

Healthcare - Everyone, including illegal immigrants get free health care. Their plan to pay for it will not have bipartisan support EVER.

Close?

lol. Very accurate.

Nice try but translation incorrect in my opinion.

Not really. There were 3 x 10 opinions on the debaters. Some I agreed with some I did not. I just cited the articles for opinions other than my own on the subject.

my views allegedly correspond most with Delaney, as this survey suggested.

https://eccie.net/showpost.php?p=1061561423&postcount=1

I saw him for the first time, last night.. he does sound sensible to me, maybe the survey is on to something. he has zero chance, though.

I thought Booker and Warren did well, mostly due to passion. people made too much of Castro "nailing" Beto, but it underscores the idea that Beto is too "rehearsed", and not nimble when challenged. I think Booker and Warren are the only 2 from last night, who have a prayer at the nomination.. Beto can still make VP, I believe. I thought Brian Williams looked stupid, showing shock that the candidates didn't attack Biden. fuck, Biden wasn't present, and it is way too early to gang up on one guy.. that would be admitting you think Biden is the one real choice. the people last night (half of them) were introducing themselves for the first time.. fuck talking about Biden!

Unique_Carpenter · 06-27-2019, 02:34 PM

You guys are way over analyzing this stuff. The dimocrates are simply canablizing themselves.

Its called parallax error. You're sitting too far to the left to correctly see the object in question.

So Beto O'Dork is the Dem version of Marco Rubio. So who's gonna play Chris Christie this year? Fidel Castro? some firebrand with boobs? Biden? (NOT!!)

BAHHAHAAA
