jeeebus. on msnbc right now spewing about how pathetic and unprepared the dems are. how stupid the debate was.

donald trump is going to be re-elected.
donald trump is going to be re-elected.
donald trump is going to be re-elected.
donald trump is going to be re-elected.
donald trump is going to be re-elected.
donald trump is going to be re-elected.

on and on about what is missing in the conversation, as tho every dem in the country doesnt know how frightening it is to think this could happen. that's one thing we dont need to be reminded of karen.

1. and take Andrew and Tom with her

[empedocles]

2. Not only Marianne -who could be more helpful with her broad base.

[Runningdawg]

3. We can say that here now? Or only about certain candidates?

[mopinko]

4. well, on the juries that i have served on,

truth is a great defense.
it was my understanding that the whole point of a separate forum was to allow for freer speech than is usually desirable.
when i get called, and it is linked to something in a mainstream source, i always let it stand. obviously i am not that, but i was repeating what she said on my teevee machine.

[Iggo]

7. Only about certain candidates.

[ritapria]

5. I wish future bebates would be limited to six candidates

At this point , I am only interested in listening to 6 candidates : Bernie , Biden, Warren, Booker, Buttigieg and Harris ….. A 2 hour debate with the candidates who have a real shot at winning the nomination would be much more interesting than ABC's 3 hour marathon involving too many candidates who don't have a prayer ……. I am probably being unfair but this is what I really believe …..

9. You seem to have no idea the depth of the bellyaching the Party & we have had to endure...

...from people going on about "transparency" and "equal opportunity for every candidate to be seen" and on and on. I think the Dem Party has done its best. From now on there is a process of self-winnowing as people run out of money and drop out.

8. Williamson.

And I agree she's all but done.

But nobody needs to shut the fuck up.

[TexasBushwhacker]

11. I guess she thinks she can get elected with her mind power n/t

[Iggo]

12. Do you? I don't.

I think she knows she has no real chance to win the nomination, and she's firing off all her ammo before she leaves the field.

[Hekate]

10. "Flapdicky"? Ohh mopinko....

[mopinko]

13. i stole that from and old friend of ours.

i use it all the time.

[Hortensis]

14. :) Well, hey. She was invited on to bash us, after all.

She wants exposure, displays what she has to offer, they like it and give it air time. A symbiotic relationship.

I read that negative press coverage of our candidate in the latter part of 2016 reached 82 r 83% of the whole and never dropped below 64%. Bob Woodward needed to promote a new book, so CNN and MSNBC traded exposure in return for his comparing Hillary to Watergate at least twice per show. Multiply by every guest except those too in demand to have to knuckle, like ex- intelligence chiefs.

It's a testament to what's good in us and sensible in enough voters that, spite of everything, we ever win elections.
