Fucking Tulsi voted no, just like Putin told her to didn't she?

Harris is my junior senator, and I voted for her, but Lizzie Warren has my heart.

Like so many of our ideas - well intentioned, but not well received.

Yeah, I hear you we need moderates who may or not be politically informed. It is naive to think we can do it without them.

I was in Warren-land and was slow to move to Harris-burg, but I'm on board now and now I'm sad. So I sent her some bucks and I put the call out on my Twitter and later today will do so on my FB (which I still have but not for very much longer). She's also not spamming me with emails which is why I'm putting the call out to all and sundry.

Used to be true for me, too, but I'm shifting to Harris lately.

The less I say about that bitch, the safer I am from the banhammer.

I'm Team Warren with Harris as my second choice, and I'd take issue with being "far left". I'm all for putting guardrails on capitalism, but I'm not all for the state seizing the means of production.

Yes. Like Hercules flushing out the Augean Stables.

You wouldn't vote for him if he was the Dem nominee?

I think the elephant in the room is that the very fact the reason there are such things as "bad" (read: underfunded) schools is due to the fundamentally flawed mechanism we have for funding public education.

Any plan to allocate neighborhood school funding on the basis of ad valorum property tax receipts from the school's immediate area is a blatantly wrongheaded plan to perpetuate the cycle of poverty. I believe that every public school across the land should be funded to the exact same amount per student as every other public school, with additional funds allocated for special needs students, etc.

I think we need some kind of a federal funding clearinghouse for public education, to bring every school district in the country up to the same levels of funding that the "best" schools enjoy.

What's the "KHIVE?"

We specifically need the moderates in a handful of states - NC, VA, OH, MI, PA, WI, and all of those states have been trending red for years. We need to yank them back, and quickly.

It helps that Dotard is so unpopular, but if people think their taxes are going to go up, they'll vote for the fascist that's already in the White House. Sad, but true!

Yes, and we should be running on raising taxes on the WEALTHY, not the middle class. However, raising taxes on the rich isn't going to pay for free daycare, free college, M4A, etc...

Toxic stans like Bernie Bros only they just go full blast agsinst non Harris candidates. Right now they're calling Warren a LIAR LIAR UNFIT for saying that her dad was a janitor and she grew up working poor because she lived in a good neighborhood and her father worked multiple jobs to get into the middle class and bought her a car.

We're not in the poor house, but we're headed that way.
