Mini-Mike isn't on a ballot until Super Tuesday.

He could theoretically be part of the "uncommitted" count.

NBC News entrance polls of Democrats on Medicare for All: 57-38% support in Iowa, 58-37% support in New Hampshire, 62-35% support in Nevada.

Maybe the candidates who staked their primary campaigns on opposing Medicare for All miscalculated.

Clearly, these are mostly liberals...

Carville is a talentless hack who stumbled on a great political pony, gripped the reins as it galloped to the presidency, and has done nothing noteworthy since then but run his mouth.

That circus left town years ago. Guess they left their clown behind.

This was an early finish wasn't it?? I will probably put this back in the main forum soon, un-sticky it BY MIDNIGHT I'd say....

Bernie Sanders says felons, even Boston Marathon bomber, should have right to vote in prison
Aamer Madhani | USA TODAY | 11:42 am EDT April 23, 2019

Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders said he thinks every U.S. citizen, even the convicted Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, should be allowed to vote in American elections.

Sanders offered his stance at a CNN town hall Monday when asked whether he thought felons should be allowed to vote while they’re incarcerated, not just after their release.

More: https://amp.usatoday.com/amp/3548232002

 :pondering:

Zuhdi, good man, has appeared on Fox:   https://twitter.com/DrZuhdiJasser

He was pressed on whether it was appropriate to enfranchise sex offenders or someone convicted of a heinous crime like Tsarnaev, who with his brother carried out the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing that left three dead and injured hundreds more.

@tedcruz
Yang is right: This is the most fundamental political shift of the past decade.  The Democratic Party has abandoned the working class, has abandoned union members, and the GOP has become the blue-collar party of jobs.

Well, at the debate, they did speak of Unions some... but we will see. Hate to see the Dems just become the party of slouches, getting everyone else to pay for them.

I wonder where the support is coming from. Which candidate are the baby boomers leaning towards opposed to millennials, generation x, etc.

Somehow I think Bernie is doing well with people say, under 40, whereas the democrats who grew up say, under FDR, Truman, etc, or people who voted for say, JFK and RFK, may be feeling different?

I’m just going by Democrats I know and the ones I’ve spoken to. The people I know who are octogenarians right now aren’t for Bernie. They want someone one like FDR, or Stevenson.

The ones I know who are around 50ish or maybe even late 40s through 70s again are just Luke warm on Bernie.

Which leaves the 18-40ish year olds. They seem to be the ones that like “uncle” Bernie.

This is bound to change because our primary is in June. I’m sure I’ll see more for other candidates by say, April.

The way I see it, what is their choice?
The struggle is we don't get to pick who runs, only who wins so if you believe that it is important to vote, then you pick the best horse in the race, not necessarily the BEST around.
There have been many many elections that I had to hold my nose when I voted....

He will vote for a communist who personally advised Daniel Ortega who to this day murders children who protest his regime, who criticized JFK for opposing communism, who wants government ownership of significant parts of the economy.

Anyway, a lot of good stuff on this page, I should start keepinig it always open.

Even Sebastian Gorka was saying something like everyone needs to connect to social media, it be facebook, twitter or what have you.

That Reagan Battalion looks like a busy account.  It makes me wonder sometimes, do a number of people run some of these accounts?
