Dems did themselves in!

I did deny it.

Let me do it again .. Why are you crying about 'context' when I posted the entire article?

Further, to suggest that this article wouldn't have been viewed negatively by a broad swath of democratic voters is just silly .. irrespective of context or what audience was meant to read it.

Let me guess .. you've called out Trump as a pussy-grabber .. but you don't think a fantasy about the gang rape of a 12 year old would cause an uproar? .. and yes, FANTASY is exactly how this would be portrayed whether Sanders meant that or not. A creaky old man's fantasy about rape.

Politics should not be about emotion .. they should be about purpose.

As the chronology of the posts shows, it is YOU who harp on EXCERPTS from the entire article..as he is pointing to the INTENT of certain advertised imagery by certain authors. Taken into proper context of the entire article, what you railed about DOES NOT define as you make out. Mind you, generalizations and a taking positions of the public for granted is a fault of the article, but it is hardly the misogynistic diatribe you make it out to be. The article would be viewed negatively by those who do just as you do, but not as vehemently by those who read what is given without stopping mid paragraph to go off the deep end. In other words, not his finest hour, but certainly NOT a campaign ender.

Given your dependence on pure speculation, supposition and conjecture on this particular thread, your last sentence is a joke.

Sanders stuck us with Trump by running.

He should've stayed the fuck out because he had no chance.

He was to the 2016 election what Ralph Nader was to the 2000 election.

By sticking their never had a chance to begin with noses in something they shouldn't have, they helped hand two elections to the two worst presidents in history.

Dear idiot; Sanders wasn't in the election. He was ousted by the DNC then commanded his brain dead minions to vote Democratic!

I love how you loser morons continue to try to explain away what a horrible candidate the DNC ran as an excuse for more DNC losses. You idiots have been losing for decades and still stupidly think you are winning.

You've just spewed the most outrageous form of convoluted logic I've seen to date.

STOP AND THINK....if Sanders had "no chance", then why did Hillary and company have to cheat? If he had no chance, then why did his very prominent and vocal supporters out number Hillary's?

As to your comparison to Nader in 2000; while Nader had much less of chance than Sanders, it was highly curious as to why the BIPARTISAN committee that orchestrates the debates changed the rules at the 11th hour to freeze him out. Nader would have changed the tone and content of the debate, which would have put both the Shrub and Gore on the spot.

Hillary became the "lesser of two evils" candidate....a hawkish leaning, SOS candidate that would be a shadow of her husband...and she ain't no Slick Willy ( of whom 2nd term I didn't vote for) despite her years of Capitol Hill insider-ship.....which is why she lost the Electoral vote. IMHO, the electoral vote should be eliminated.

But what YOU are suggesting is AGAINST the very nature of America.....denying the American public the RIGHT to organize candidates for government representation.

Sanders could have put what was best for the country ahead of what was best for his political career and chosen not to run.

He knew what the potential was for damaging Clinton's campaign by running against her.

If he wanted to run that badly, he should've ran as an Independent rather than trying to hijack the Democratic Party.

on topic yes the Dems are doing themselves "in"

Wanting to start a war with Russia, wanting to dismantle our election process in front of the whole world ad nauseam, delaying and obstructing moving this country forward is the recipe for more of last November for them.
Shame for the country, same ON them

Ummm, you just described the GOP for the last 8 years. I was referring to the Dem party letting Hillary get away with cheating Bernie out of the California primary.

Dear idiot, Sanders damaged her during the primaries.

If you weren't such a dumbfuck, you'd understand how that works.

Doofus.

Free college for everyone, with absolutely no hope of using whichever degree they achieve, is just plain silly. If he suggested funding for trade schools as well, or instead, that would make more sense. Free tuition is a gross waste of money, especially given that many wouldn't even benefit from a 4 year vacation.

Sorry to inform you of this, but everything you just stated is wrong. The examples being:

http://www.politifact.com/florida/s...llege-once-free-united-states-and-it-oversea/

http://time.com/4276222/free-college/

It's all a matter of willingness to do.

I don't see how either of your links back up your assertion that free college is a feasible idea in today's America.

All those articles did were to cite examples of it having been tried a hundred years ago.

Quite a difference between then and now.

Wrong, as one article points to how California ended such with Ronald Reagan becoming governor. Then there was Baruch college. Re-read all the information.

Read this carefully, as there is a difference between formal declaration as a terrorist organization and acting out “domestic terrorist violence". Which is why the formal declaration comes now. Go back and look at other organizations that went the same route: http://www.politico.com/story/2017/09/01/antifa-charlottesville-violence-fbi-242235

read this carefully:

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has formally classified the activities of anti-fascist groups (antifa) as "domestic terrorist violence" since early 2016, according to confidential law enforcement documents obtained by Politico and interviews.
