Never counted him in. Complete failure in his only attempt at tiny Town mayoring. Stated intention to ignore the Constitution and also the laws enacted by Congress.
That doesn't make sense and here's why. He's a homosexual and would lose votes in a general election just because of that. They want to beat Trump in the worst way so you'd think they'd pick someone, if they were the picking sort, who would get the most votes rather than Mayor Pete.
That seems like a very weird claim. You could make that accusation against Joe Biden, and it would have some merit. Or arguably any of the senators in the race. Pete might have centrist policies, but he's not part of the party establishment, nor does anyone see 2020 as being 'his turn'. Quite the opposite. barfo
Idk Pete is basically young gay Biden and Amy is basically young female Biden. Feel free to pick your Biden flavor.
In terms of policy, sure, that's plausible. In terms of being favored members of the political 'establishment', which I think was what Bodyman was suggesting, not really. barfo
They don't put all their money on one horse right away. They clutter up the field with puppets. I can't seriously imagine why you guys would pretend the identity politics party wouldn't pick a guy like Buttigiggity on the off chance he catches a wave of popularity.
Not what I was suggesting. That of which you speak is covered by Biden and Warren quite nicely. Butttiggigggg is their long shot "diversity" draft pick.
No. Obama was the party's worst, most divisive President since Johnson, and Dems think "they're" all alike. Racist Dems have refused to support either of them with money or words.
That's a moderately insane theory of party politics. <insert 'that's not how any of this works' meme> barfo
I don't think they could control Booker and until Tulsi destroyed Harris she was one of their group of puppets. The neolibs cover their bases. Not my fault the "progressive" Democrats routinely picked the white candidates when polled. You have to admit Booker and his buggy eyes aren't even remotely as polished as Obama was. Harris being an evil lying prosecutor wasn't going to get the black vote.
Do you have a link showing that Harris was unpopular with the Black vote? The reason I ask is that I've never heard this before and would like to see it in black and white (newsprint color).

It seems to discount the prosecutor stuff and attribute it to what I see with Booker.... https://www.theroot.com/does-kamala-harris-have-a-working-class-black-man-probl-1835424646
