I had a friend say something to the effect of "Hillary is such a weak candidate that her party is seriously considering socialism as an alternative"
It was never that Bernie was a formidable opponent. This is all just the result of her not being a very compelling option. The establishment is pulling a John McCain here, getting behind someone who doesn't have it. People love Bernie because he's so genuine and that's enough when your other option is someone who quite literally may get indicted.
As a result, the democrat party is considering socialism...
What's interesting to me as a republican is how defeatable both of these candidates will be. Hillarys record can be absolutely shredded, and Bernies socialism can easily be challenged as well. It's going to be very interesting to see what happens. Republicans need to vet the heck out of their candidates, get the RIGHT nominee and bring it on.Last edited by Dave Stalwart; February 10, 2016, 10:02 AM.

Remember when Nancy Pelosi said about Obamacare:
"We have to pass it, to find out what's in it".
A physician called into a radio show and said:
"That's the definition of a stool sample."

Originally posted by im4wsu View PostDon't know if this is true, but this link https://thehornnews.com/10982-2/ says that due to superdelegates, Hillary leaves two more delegates than Sanders. She had something like 389 delegates in the bank before the first caucus/primary voter even showed up.

Originally posted by jdshock View PostThat site is obviously using inflammatory language, but it's definitely true. Bernie is up 34 to 32 in "won" delegates but Hillary is up 394 to 42 total. It's a weird quirk of the primary schedule. The popular vote winner might not get the nomination. I think there are roughly 1/3 of the total delegates that are "super delegates" and roughly half have committed to Hillary so far. Assuming the vast majority go to Hillary (which I think most people think is likely), Bernie will have to win the primaries by a lot to take home the nomination.In the fast lane

Originally posted by tropicalshox View PostI wouldn't call it a weird quirk. The Democratic Party set this up after McGovern's loss, I beleive. It's purpose is to keep the Party's platform and Presidential canidate in an acceptable range to the Party's elites and elected officials.There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese.
