Related: About this forumYo BernieBros...
Bernie is rock solid. It freaks them out so they call names and talk down to us Bernie supporters.
And they'll want our votes maybe later so it doesn't make sense politically to me.

(3,128 posts)1. They have always played the "we are the lesser of the two evils" card.
But this will no longer work with at least 25% of the core Democratic voters and a large majority of the independents. This is why I do not understand how Hillary thinks she can win the general election if she is the nominee.

(5,275 posts)4. i always liked the conclusion that 'the lesser of two evils'...
is still evil...
it appears that finally many of us are tired enough of that same old bullshit to see if push will come to shove...and the younger people don't want to even get started having to deal with those conditions...
the 'net, social media, etc. may be the tools that deconstruct the Third Way/old-DLC programs...it may not happen this year, but they, like all us old boomers, aren't going to get any younger and hopefully their fire will take hold and help get this country moving toward what it could be...
personally, i'm tired of waiting...

She'll burn that bridge when she comes to it.

(872 posts)7. always before
there was some redeeming value to the lesser evil. Not this time.
And every time we go along with the lesser evil, the party drifts further to the right.
