Who else thinks it will be a fire-cracker of a debate?

What happens if hundreds of local/state level candidates and dozens of people in Congress will have to go against the party's "standard bearer". I wanted to start a discussion on how these people would be supported by the national Democratic Party apparatus? Does the Party even have the means to run two parallel operations like this or will these candidates be left to their own devices without Party support?

If Sanders is the nominee, hundreds of local/state level candidates and dozens of people in Congress will have to go against the party's "standard bearer". I wanted to start a discussion on how these people would be supported by the national Democratic Party apparatus?

We have been at 50% reporting since early this morning. What is taking so long?

I just do not see how we unite the party otherwise. A brokered convention will force the nominee to pick someone from the other side of the party as the VP candidate.

If Sanders is the nominee and he picks Nina Turner or Tulsi Gabbard, we will be killed in a GE due to turnout

If Biden is the nominee and he picks Bloomberg, we will be killed in the GE due to turnout

The only way forward is a unity ticket between the moderates and the left wing of the party

People need to realize and acknowledge this fact. A lot of down-ballot candidates in multiple states will have to run against Bernie, in addition, to their republicans opponent. This will be unavoidable. The unity among democrats will be an illusion at best. We might not be able to be on the same page about a lot of things, but we need to be on the same page about this.

She’s supporting the guy trying to primary Pelosi!

And so it starts.... 😕🙁

The governor is republican. So it will be just a little bit harder to get control of the Senate—IF Bernie is the nominee and wins

We have to vote blue no matter what!
