Let’s just treat him like he knows a goddamned thing. Sure.


Just means they haven’t marinated long enough in the propaganda.


Oh man you’re right I’d forgotten that.
I don’t think superdelegates are to prevent popular candidates (see Obama), I think they’re to get a comprehensible slate of candidates to focus on issues and themes and not on turning the Iowa caucus into something bizarre by claiming to be a Democrat who just happens to demand we all live in the sea or something.
Again, republicans don’t have this problem, and they’re well known to fund ‘spoiler candidates’ with the intention of wrecking momentum or message or other campaign aspects.


It’s so nice to see a sane take on that. Thank you.


Bernie lost because people didn’t want to vote for him because of a variety of reasons but not because the primary wasn’t “fair”. If more people voted for him he would have won.
Uh oh

(I agree, although DWS really screwed up everything including discussing this)


Cynthia McKinney was elected as a Democrat in Georgia around that time. iirc she was looking at a presidential run. You might have seen her on here yesterday for her latest tweet. (Spoiler: super bigot)
Which is to say, if you open the field to everyone in the country you will spend a certain amount of time winnowing the contenders from the stunt candidates. Republicans don’t do that because they’re all the same candidate. So they spend almost zero time (since Perot) dealing with that.
Superdelegates aren’t great, but an alternative to achieve that aim of not having to platform every trust fund kid with a boot on their head might be good.


What about 2008? It wasn’t fair?


Fucking idiots: Buhr? *head tilt*


1992? 2000? 2004? 2008? 2020?


tHiS iS tHe DeMoCraTz FauLt!!1!


Why are the American people are so stupid?
Propaganda works. Sometimes it takes a long time and sometimes it’s quick, but it always works.
Also, it’s coming for everyone, so head’s up.


Yeah, in the time honored tradition he pulled out his tiny hog in front of kids and then one of them married him. The one who became a grandma at 36. Said grandchild providing his dad with two separate charges of child abuse in 20 months.
The one who, as a US representative, was cranking hogs at the theatre while smoking the weed, before screaming at security who threw her out, denying everything 100% before security footage was released.
So yeah pretty much on the high ground.


The journal decided when it first started publishing the article type “that the cases should be fictional to protect patient confidentiality,” Robinson told us. “Apart from the case that led to the recent New Yorker article, all or almost all were cases of very well recognized conditions (such as congenital syphilis, fetal alcohol syndrome, serious trauma from ATVs, hepatitis C infection) where a single case report would not generate any interest or ever be cited.”
While the journal is indexed in Scopus and Web of Science, these articles are not. However, we queried all 138 DOIs in Semantic Scholar and found 61 of them have been cited at least once. Together they have been cited 218 times.
I don’t . . . What even . . .


The image of the aircraft bedroom was first published by NBC News and obtained from a brochure handed out to passengers. It showed a queen-sized bed in the luxury cabin adorned with six pillows. An armchair sits nearby.



The 54-year-old DHS secretary has been known to frequently travel with her adviser Corey Lewandowski, with whom she has allegedly been having an affair.
Noem was testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Capitol Hill as her husband, Bryon, was seated just behind her when Whitehouse asked her about the image he had blown up on a poster behind him in the hearing room.
“Can you explain this?” the Rhode Island Democrat asked, referring to the image.

What a fuckup
