Yeah, we should be ascared of the gop "going to town on that kind of thing." You must not keep up with gop strategy. They "go to town" on everything and anything coming from across the aisle.

There are so many stupid people in America. They understand democratic socialism about as much as they do their neighbors to the north.

I read Obams despises DWS and wanted to give her the axe but for some unknown reason ( Clinton?) did not.

Their feng shui is fucked.

I can imagine. Apparently she gave him a lot of shit both in public and behind the scenes over the Iran nuke deal. She really is Joe Lieberman 2.0.

Her support of payday lenders is more than enough reason to kick her out - all the other stuff is just icing on her shitcake.

Hey, some people are fine with all the holes.

yeaaahhhhh there are no right wing democrats left.Hrmm... Do you remember the last mid-terms, where a number of Dems - allegedly on the advice of DWs herself - distanced themselves from Obama's policies & got their butts kicked?

And yet again, you show that you don't care about the Dems winning, you're just about shitting on Sanders. For your information, most of the hate for DWS is coming from the Dem base itself.

I have seen people in that state, & now that you mention it, it does seem a pretty good explanation for ZeroSumGame's rants. If you know that that's genuinely the case, please say so, because I have a policy of not beating up on people with genuine medical issues.

I want to support Hillary but DWS is an example of the reasons I find that so difficult. The DNC is tone deaf to everything that isn't about keeping the incumbents in place.

I think rightly or wrongly (I really don't know and have seen conflicting reports on it) she's blamed for screwing the pooch on the midterms for not focusing enough on state elections and allowing or even encouraging the strategy of "Distance yourself from Obama!", which worked out so well in Kentucky and elsewhere.

I do know she's very hawkish on foreign policy, especially Israel, and was going to rally against the Iran nuke deal until Obama stopped her. I haven't seen it get *that* much attention but I know she became fairly notorious in wonk circles for flat-out undermining Obama's foreign policy decisions.

Probably "She's the new Joe Lieberman" sums it up.

I do not know if that is the case. I only recognize my own behavior at times...

I feel the same way. That said, I think it's okay to be anti-abortion, but pro-choice, in the sense that one can dislike abortions, but accept their necessity, plus express your dislike of them by encouraging good quality sex education, easy availability of all kinds of birth control, & strong financial support for single mothers - none of which are supported by the Right, obviously.
