No freakin' kidding.

You talking about Supreme Court Associate “I LIKE BEER!” Goon?

That, yes. But also there's a MUCH wider spectrum of choices now.

We have people running as serious, credible candidates in just about every demographic. More people, I think, are finding a candidate who blends with them in finer but significant points that carry a lot of weight on their own. It’s like a political custom burger menu.

There simply are more choices available. And there’s more to choose from for people who liked Bernie last time except that he ... (fill in the not-perfect or gee-if-only details here, of examples where Bernie fell short). More possibilities for finding someone whose candidacy really hits the bullseye rather than settling for degrees of closeness to said bullseye.

Always handy to have a lot of strings available for pulling.

It’s who you know.

It’s ALWAYS about who you know.

About calimary

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.
