1. I do not click blind links, sorry

[Dr Hobbitstein]

3. That's not a blind link.

That's an explicit link to motherjones.com

This is a blind link

2.

No temptation here.

I understand it better, though, than Kevin Drum does. I'll remind the selectively deaf and blind: A large portion of America is angry at the establishment and not supporting establishment candidates. Whether or not that is the best way to go after the establishment can certainly be debated, but that's beside the point.

And, of course, Drum has to frame it around "Bernie supporters," which is quite telling in itself.

4. Precisely

you hit the nail on the head.

5. Remember when those "liberal" young voters only cared about Keystone and TPP?

Now they're backing a candidate who is explicitly in favor of both? Just because he likes weed?

To call them idiots would be an understatement.

6. It shows their opposition to Clinton has nothing to do with those issues

Just as their support for Bernie had nothing to do with those issues.

[BobbyDrake]

7. Yep, that sums it up perfectly. nt

8. people who are supporting Johnson don't care about progressive policies

or other human beings

if they supported Sanders, they did so as a social signifier to strut as radical and edgy and cool, not because they genuinely cared about his issues

9. A vote for anybody but Clinton is a vote FOR TRUMP!
