Re: Democratic Primary
Yeah, it's just not based in reality. The extremely liberal side of the party is not going to win you the election and that to me seems to be what people like Sanders and Warren are banking on. They are trying to appeal to what has become a vocal minority. To have a chance to win in 2020 Dems have to capture the moderate and independent voters in places like PA and Ohio, and the policies Warren and Sanders put out are NOT going to do that. As I believe John Delaney said, someone like that being the nom, it's gift wrapping the election for Trump.

Re: Democratic Primary
100% it just isn't going to resonate.
The thing about Biden is he doesn't say a lot. He's got the personality that I think people will like and he has the experience of being so close to office, so that shouldn't be an issue. But I still haven't heard him say a heck of a lot."Cause if you ain’t pissed off for greatness, that just means you’re okay with being mediocre, and ain’t no man in here okay with just basic.”

Re: Democratic Primary
I think Biden’s main problem within the party will be voter enthusiasm. Similar in some ways to Hilary, although nowhere near as toxic. I think most Dems ‘like’ him, but I don’t know how many are excited by him.

Re: Democratic Primary
I didn't watch the debate but heard Mueller wasn't brought up at all after 2 plus years of investigation and the Democrats still trying to keep it alive. Was there any questions about abortion?

Re: Democratic Primary
Went to bed at 10 and I can't recall any question about abortion, but there isn't really much to discuss for them there, as NCRAVEN said, since they are all going to be pro-choice. I don't think they really touched on any women's rights stuff, per a Tweet I saw from Gillibrand.
I don't see why they would have discussed anything Mueller related. These debates are for policy and position. Mueller stuff won't come up, if it ever does, until the candidate is locked in and it's a debate with Trump. For example, Hillary's e-mails were not a point of discussion at the debates between her and Bernie last cycle.back on twitter

Re: Democratic Primary
First ....welcome to the Board.
Second .....welcome to The Lid!
Since you’re from outside the US ....would you maybe be willing to start a thread about politics in Sweden and any other European counties you’re aware of? There has been discussion in The Lid about other countries politics and how they work vs our system. If not that’s cool. I think you’d find a very welcome vibe if you do. Most guys here do wanna discuss and learn. They are pretty tied to their beliefs though! Lol.

Re: Democratic Primary
That´s only true to some extent. The same as they didn´t like W Bush etc. But Trump is just something else. He says more awful, rude and downright mind boggeling things in a day than even Reagan did in his life...
Well, I dislike his immigartion policies, leaving the Paris Agreement is a disgrace (even if it wont affect as much since most major states and companies are already on board with cutting emissions etc), abortion policies, constant flirting and refuing to stand against racists and nazis for starters. But this thread seems to have gotten back OnT, so we can drop it here me thinks.
