The real energy of this election lies with middle of the road types disgusted by this cheap thug Trump, and the energy of committed Democrats who hate this cheap thug Trump like poison. "Bernie' simply brings nothing to this combination, and is a potential threat to it. he man cannot even be relied on to deliver his most dedicated supporters to the ticket, should he by some miracle actually make a sincere attempt to do that.





"From Bernie’s perspective, dropping out of a race once you have no chance of winning is peculiar behavior that can only be explained by the work of a hidden hand. For most politicians, though, it is actually standard operating procedure. Only Sanders seems to think the normal thing to do once voters have made clear they don’t want to nominate you is to continue campaigning anyway."





"When things are not called by their right names, what is said cannot make sense. When what is said does not make sense, what is planned cannot succeed. When plans do not succeed, people become uneasy. When people are uneasy, punishments do not fit crimes. When punishments do not fit crimes, people cannot know where to put hand or foot."

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
