2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumThe desperation of the {Sanders/Clinton} campaign is getting palpable
Circle as appropriate:
It is so clear to see! The charges of {racism/sexism/third way engineering/oligarchy enablement} show that the opposition believe they're in a lot of trouble! Maybe it is because that polls show {Sanders/Clinton} have significant issues with {minority/millennial} voters, and they don't have a clear path forward.
And everyone knows that {his/her} issues with {guns/email} is going to spell the end of {his/her} campaign.
But what can you say? I would be worried too if {social media/traditional} polls showed me losing {all 50 states/49 states}.
And don't get me started on 2008. It is clear that Clinton {is/isn't} worried about past history because Sanders {is/isn't/is better than} Obama. That is why she has worked so hard to rally establishment support. She is just {so scared of/a much better candidate than} Sanders.
Maybe O'Malley will gain traction but right now he is {on the sidelines/bidding his time}. That said, if {Clinton/Sanders} gets {indicted/too socialist} he might be the ultimate beneficiary!
And GDP isn't like it is used to be. {Clinton's/Sanders'} supporters are doing nothing but {taunting/trolling} the other side, and it is getting really mean spirited. I just hope that we can all take a deep breath and will support {Clinton/Sanders} when {he/she} wins the nomination, because the most important thing is beating the Republicans.

(6,323 posts)Is it really, because we beat them twice and I still don't have a steady job because it was shipped to a lower wage country.
We won but I'm not faring any better and I have a lot of friends and family in the same boat.
Or are we talking about filling supreme court seats. I can't wait for that.
jtuck004
(15,882 posts)sure that is no longer the best focus for most of this country.
Maybe it's because the "beating" more resembled a performance, now that the lights have dimmed.
