In other news, the DNC redirects one million volunteers to support the Clinton/Ocasio-Cortez 2020 campaign.

"This time, it'll work for sure!"

Yeah, I wanted to say, before 20 screenfuls of Hillary-related bloviation appears, that the only thing I'm not sure about--because that was almost 11 minutes of unadulterated good sense, there--is whether it's smarter for Bernie to stay with the DNC, who's no way not going to throw him under the bus again, or to go 3rd-party, which carries the terrifying risk of splitting the progressive vote. Fucking political parties.


jangbones - 2019-02-19

no third party, that is a bad choice

it is possible that the DNC will undercut the Sanders campaign, but 1. the DNC shenanigans in 2016 did not have a gigantic impact, and 2. Trump showed that an outsider can win the party nom and the general, 3. HRC had spent years lining up her candidacy and was deeply embedded, and she ain't running this time


exy - 2019-02-19

Not sure about point #1 there, but #2 and #3 make sense.

My only concern is that he's getting pretty old.

Even my dad's 100% on board this time around (in 2016 he was all "Hillary's not that bad, I don't understand why people hate her so much" but I'm visiting the folks now and just yesterday he was going off about Biden being right wing and Jimmy Carter selling out the democrats, so he has fully come around; my mom worked for Planned Parenthood in the 60s and 70s and was in workers' co-operatives from the early 80s until she retired, then came out of retirement to work part time as the sole employee for a tiny business run by an Israeli anti-Zionist Jewish socialist, so being OK with Hillary in '16 basically made my dad Archie Bunker by this family's standards), and the polls I've seen show him as the second choice for the supporters of pretty much every viable Democratic candidate, so even the people who would rather vote for Biden or something would settle for Bernie.


NYT is already starting to gin up the"Bernie has a problem with black people and women" narrative, though.


exy - 2019-02-19

Age is definitely a concern. Seems to have considerably less syphilis and meth than our current fossilized exhibit, though.

Worst case scenario is that he dies doing something he loved, and takes advantage of all the time he has between now and then to make a good difference. I really can't see the downside.


cognitivedissonance - 2019-02-19

I’ll vote for whoever is presented to me that isn’t Donald Trump. It could be Jack the Ripper. I have no loyalties and all politicians are morally compromised jobbers.


jangbones - 2019-02-19

a thousand times this, I personally like Bernie far and above any other candidate, but if he does not win the Democratic nomination I will vote for the person that does


Old_Zircon - 2019-02-19

Well yeah.


Scrotum H. Vainglorious - 2019-02-19

Word up.


MurgatroidMendelbaum - 2019-02-19

If the 2016 election proved anything, it's that Washington outsiders are always the best possible choice.


cognitivedissonance - 2019-02-19

I think the key here is that I'd PREFER Jack the Ripper.

Hitler 2020


Juice Eggs McKenna - 2019-02-19

Do read the campaign launch email he sent out, it's wonderful.


Lef - 2019-02-19

I like to think of my favorites list as the movie that will be played as I die.

Funny, absurd, entertaining, hopeful...

I want this video to be true to this.


Bisekrankas - 2019-02-20

How big of a chance does he realistically have, isnt he a full blown all out socialist by US standards?

Really hope he pulls it off though

Old_Zircon - 2019-02-21

I saw a poll a couple of weeks ago that showed he was the second choice of the supporters of every other viable Democratic candidate, i.e. if he made it to the general he'd get all of them.


TeenerTot - 2019-02-20

His age does concern me a bit. But I won't pass judgement until I see his running mate.


Old_Zircon - 2019-02-21

If we get a Sanders/Warren ticket I'll never stop having to change my underwear.


Ugh - 2019-02-20

i look forward to seeing centrist dems shit themselves in an undying, unintelligible fury over a man whose platform they say they want but will never vote for


jangbones - 2019-02-20

most of the Bernie haters are white women, so they have earned the nickname "Wine Twitter"
