Orange is now the official color of this Administration

On a different note, the pubs seem to be acting like the North Koreans in response to anything their leader does. They need to please their leader or be purged

A lot of Democrats, including myself, thought that the election of Obama, twice, was a significant event in the evolution of politics in this country. I couldn't have been more wrong. The Country has espoused some noble ideals, but its citizens aren't ready to walk the walk.

Bernie is running for election in a country that does not yet exist, and I do not believe he can make it what he wants it to be. Bloomberg has a record of getting things done in a very imperfect world. Bloomberg himself is not perfect, but none of us are.

In Nevada , 1/3 rd were liberal, 1/3 were very liberal and 1/3 were moderate and conservative and Bernie even tied with the moderates.

Watch him run the table on super Tuesday except maybe Minn which is Klouchar's home state.

Bernie has more punch with workers, women and people of color then any other dem.

And as a dem he has the women and libs.

Koan,

Bloomberg is moving up in the polls per 538

fivethirtyeight.com

Are the progressives really half of the Dem party? I haven’t seen that data.

I like Carville. I don’t see him as a party hack. I see him as a person who calls them as he sees them. The fact that he is married to a Republican gives him more insight into their thinking. He also helped Clinton get elected.

As to electability, the Dems I talk to all roll their eyes at Bernie’s chances so my little piece of the world, which has women and progressives in it, don’t see him as electable. I would also say that his heart attack also weighs against him. Look what Trump and the Pubs did to Hillary and she was healthy. I wonder how things really are since I haven’t seen much information released about it.
