The Democrat Primary Race Is Filling Up

[nonobaddog]

Someone really needs to step in and get Joe Biden off to the nursing home. This stuff is just getting ridiculous.

"Where I come from, you don't get far unless you ask. My name's Joe Biden. I'm a Democratic candidate for the United States Senate. Look me over. If you like what you see, help out. If not, vote for the other Biden," he said.

Maybe he meant he is so two-faced he is like a multiple choice candidate.

Stock Market is beginning to worry about getting Berned...

They should be, and so should you. The movement to expel Trump from the WH has a lot of people who find the ideas of Bernie and Bloomberg distasteful, willing to "hold their noses," and vote that way anyways. I still don't think neither has a chance, but there is certainly a lot of people willing to go that route.

Pure fascism:

Trying to be the first Pres. to get run out on a rail?

So it’s Trumps fault.

Do you disagree with my post? And if so, why?

Will the real Joe Biden please stand up..please stand up....please stand up.

It’s not Trumps fault that the Democrats run ****ty candidates. The people you speak of would vote for the candidate for the reason you stated anyway no matter who the candidate is.

Of course it is Trump's fault.

I agree with your post completely. I gotta mark this down on something.

There are also some Republicans that don't like Trump that will do the same thing.

It seems the public is segmented so much that there is no way only two candidates can give everybody a "happy" choice. It has probably been that way forever but it seems particularly true now. Everybody has to vote for the least perceived evil which is kind of a shame.

I feel fortunate that I do have a "happy" choice - Go Trump!!

I asked you if you disagreed. Care to answer that question? It appears, at least to me, that the same logic many used to justify voting for Trump, is being used by those who intend on voting for Bernie.

Thank you sir!

I didn't realize gay people were dying in the streets of America.

Also, this person has pronouns in his bio.

We aren’t saying Pete is the wrong kind of gay just that his gayness doesn’t represent the kind of progress for queer survival that feels worth celebrating to some of us.

Starving people into mass graves does technically remove them from poverty. Sander's has a point there.

Focus Comrades!

We have a candidate that is having trouble recalling what he ate for breakfast and is attempting to “Forest Gump” himself into historical situations that never happened.

Another candidate who is in the lead right now is a Socialist and is expounding the virtues of Communism apparently with the approval of the “moderate/sane” majority of the party.

The “Hobbit” has tons of gold will it be enough?

I would rather talk about how great President DJT is as well!
The Democrats are really worrying me I think they may have gone insane?

I think you're overlooking the fact that Bernie had a substantial percentage of the support he enjoys now during the 2016 election cycle, so the desire on the left to watch it Bern precedes Trump

What I'm dying to see is how many Democrats will 'perjure' themselves (in the court of professed intent) by voting for everything they say they don't want (mini-Mike) out of a sense of expediency

Oh there’s no doubt that a number voted for Trump because of the alternative but I bet many more that voted for Trump over HRC in 2016 also did so because they agreed with the policy direction he was going.

Personally it was a combination of both that got my vote.

And that's why I say: Tom Hanks For President!

A Ping here and a Ping there, pretty soon you're talking about a real person.

He can pick Wilson as his running mate.

He can pick Wilson as his running mate.

....so he can bounce ideas off him.

The democrats love for first amendment violating campaign finance restrictions are actually biting them badly.


When Democrats wake up this Sunday after the South Carolina primary, there’s a fair chance their presidential race will be down to just two candidates with the resources to compete in March’s slew of pricey state contests: moneybags Bloomberg and socialist Bernie Sanders. No other Democrat candidate clearly appears to have $10 million on hand—and that’s just what it will take to compete for one or two more weeks in this race.

Today, that limit is $2,800 per person, per race. If you’re running for Congress in one of Rhode Island’s congressional districts, which have a population of 539,000 people, you can take $2,800 per person, per race, including the primary. If you’re running for the White House, to represent 330 million people, you can also take just $2,800—even though you must raise enough to compete in primaries and caucuses in both Rhode Island districts, 49 other states, plus the territories and Puerto Rico.


When you layer in a candidate’s need to spend money early to hit national polling thresholds to qualify for cable debates televised six months before the first voting, it’s a math problem that has no good solution. It led Republicans in 2016 to launch a bevy of SuperPACs, to which supporters of specific candidates could contribute unlimited, but disclosed, amounts of money to entities that ran independent shadow campaigns on their behalf. But this year, the “progressive” wing of the Democratic Party pressured its candidates to all initially eschew this element of progress in our campaign finance system.

Enter Bloomberg, with the ultimate hack of the campaign finance system. The Supreme Court has long held the First Amendment prohibits any limit on the amount of personal money a candidate can spend in the absence of loathed public financing. As Sen. Elizabeth Warren says, Bloomberg didn’t need a SuperPAC—he is a SuperPAC.

The only candidate with the wherewithal to combat Bloomberg’s billions is the front-runner, Sanders. His army of junkies frustrated at the Democratic political machine crashes his website’s donation page in waves to get the endorphin hit of sticking it to the man for the low, low price of a $50 or $100 credit card pull.

Liberals and New York Times columnists love to point to the Electoral College, or Facebook’s old-fashioned erstwhile First Amendment allegiances, or to enduring last-century notions like voting in person to proclaim that our democracy is in peril. They are right in their topline conclusion that our elections are rigged, but they’re looking in the wrong spot to find the cables and ropes that do the rigging.


Our problem is the campaign finance law. Mike and Bernie prove it. And it’s predominantly Democrats who are to blame.
