General Politics Discussion (VI) [ARCHIVED] • Page 2069

After making fun of Delaney’s deadlift over the weekend I hit my shin with the bar today and so it looks like I have to be a Delaney Stan now sorry all

 

It’s hard for me to keep up my seething hatred for Boomers when CNN interviews cute lefty old people who say they don’t dislike any of the candidates and will unite to support whoever wins, even if said Boomer is currently caucusing for Biden

 

not playing at all, couldn’t have happened to a better guy really

 

I just wanted an excuse to post a Gemstones gif haha

 

you could’ve went with this one to signal your agreement:

 

I love it when op-eds completely undermine their entire argument in the opening paragraph:

“In the field of political forecasting, almost nothing is a matter of certainty, and almost everything is a matter of probability. If Democrats nominate Bernie Sanders — who currently leads the field in Iowa and New Hampshire, and appears to be consolidating support among the party’s progressive wing, while its moderates remain splintered — his prospects against Donald Trump in November would be far from hopeless. Polarization has given any major party nominee a high enough floor of support that the term “unelectable” has no real place in the discussion. What’s more, every candidate in the race brings a suite of their own liabilities Trump could exploit.”

 

Sanders and Warren were the only two viable candidates at the Drake satellite caucus lol

 

Pete supporters trying to get viable on 2nd choice but they’re falling one short right now.
This is a lot of fun to watch tbh

 

I’m not sure for how many people this is their first tie following Iowa, but I do recommend no one gets too high or low no matter what happens tonight. Eye on the ball and be weary of any “it’s over” takes.

(except for Pete. He has to finish top two.)

 

this is crazy so far just because they didn’t have these satellite jawns before, it’s a lot of fun haha

 

Are you watching these or physically participating?

 

Also remember, there are multiple rounds

 

Just watching, CNN has correspondents out at a bunch of different ones and they keep flashing around to them all

 

Caucuses are dumb but also seem kinda fun if they didn't actually have consequences lol

 

Sanders got 67.7% at that Des Moines satellite, Warren got 32.4, they were the only ones to get votes after the realignment

 

oh

 

Klobuchar killing it at this other Florida satellite. So the snowbirds that flee Iowa in the winter really love Klobuchar.

She and Pete are the only two viable on first count. Biden was next at like 12.5%

 

Reading twitter in sports announcer voice is gonna power my evening

 

LOL at the retirees
