chuck'n'andrea: it's going to be Kaine

[Gabi Hayes]

todd said ''he's not a DLC centrist-type, but he's not a Bernie supporter either''

you IDIOT! he's to the right of DLC, if not square in the center

what world are you covering?

he says there are already rumblings from the Bernie side of the spectrum, but they seem confident it will be him, to the point of not mentioning anyone else

so we got that going for us

1. He's a mainstream Democrat. Stop slandering him with this right-wing garbage.

4. The members of the Purity Patrol are grasping at every piece of straw

they can find in order to justify not voting for the Democratic nominee and her Democratic VP choice.

7. too funny!

I always hold my nose and vote for the lesser of two evils

come back when you do about 5 seconds of googling, when you know what you're talking about

big fan of TPP, are you?

Hillary changed her mind because of the purity patrol, don't ya know?

8. your kinda guy, is he?

just so you know, I said on another thread I'm OK with him, because he speaks fluent Spanish....could be a big help in florida, and he obviously will help, as a CONSERVATIVE in VA

so, I'm a pure....pragmatist

and you are a.......?

13. TPP is dead; most sentient Democrats realize it.

Most also understand that Hillary was reluctant to embarrass a sitting Democratic president by grandstanding her opposition.
And I frankly question the judgment of anyone who classifies the Democratic candidate as any kind of evil, be it lesser or greater.

Funny how I haven't been hearing umbrage and outrage from the Purity Patrol about Dr. West's public betrayal of Democrats by accepting a position on the platform committee and then endorsing a non-Democrat for president in fit of pique over his inability to work with a coalition of Democrats.

Sorry, but I save my outrage for the outrageous.

12. does this leaven your opinion just a bit?

6. I wasn't a fan of the Chuckster until Trump singled him out for criticism.

Now I like the Chuckster !!!

[geek tragedy]

3. the DLC doesn't exist nt

[Gabi Hayes]

9. so what should I describe him as, third way, conservative, bankster?

see an above post for his vote on DEREGULATING the banks

I also say on that post that his nom works for me, because of florida and VA

[geek tragedy]

11. he's to the right of Elizabeth Warren, but he fits the typical profile of

a Democrat who grew up in a deep red state that has transformed into a purple one, his thinking has evolved in line with the electorate.

The deregulation thing has to do with smaller banks, not the bigger ones. Not that regional banks are any angels, but it's not a wall street effort.

5. Why would they delay an announcement if it's Kaine?

They want maximum excitement, sure. But Kaine brings none.

Still think and hope it will be Warren.

[Gabi Hayes]

10. it won't. she's almost better on the outside, tossing twitgrenades at the thinskinned one

mine was Al Franken

hope he starts getting more visible on the trail, because he's probably the best at getting under the skin of those lying liars, and has a proven track record of standing up, instead of shrinking back
