Jesus H. christ on a fucking crutch.
You have got to be shitting me here Democrats?
Running a failed candidate again seems like a fucking winning strategy?
For Fucks Sake! The complete ineptitude and malice of this POS party.
-
For the love of all things holy.
-
Close the door.
-
-
Dems need to wake the fuck up
-
They're awake.
They just don't work for us.
-
Well dont talk to them, talk to their paymasters if you want things done. 1-202-639-5200 is the main number for AIPAC. Have your checkbook or credit card number ready.

Nope

If she wins the primaries, fair and square, without the DNC rigging it in her favor? Sure.
Anything other than that? "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."
-
This is all by design. They no interest in winning

Vote. In. The. Primary.
Then accept the reality that for over 99% of state and federal offices either the Democratic or the Republican nominee will win in the general election and vote accordingly. Not voting only maintains the status quo and the only message it sends to "strategists" and candidates is that they don't have to care about your priorities.

I’ve. Done. Been. Voting. In. Primaries.
It. Don’t. Work. When. The. Country. Is. Fundametally. Conservative.

Naturally, if you're already voting consistently in the primaries, then you are not in the target audience for my comment.. More people voting for a different candidate resulting in the other candidate winning isn't really an example of the process not working. Keep fighting for a ballot initiative for ranked choice or approval voting, but don't stop voting in primaries and elections just because the result isn't what you wanted. Your presence in the process is a matter of public record and it tells every campaign that if they don't attempt to win your vote then you're a potential vote for someone else.

They need to run a real primary without their thumb in the scale for the first time since 2008...
-
I don't disagree. But I also don't expect them to stop as long they have the platform to. But that doesn't mean I'm going to give in to the status quo by sitting on the sidelines or voting third party in a district/state with first-past-the-post.

It's almost like not doing anything, accomplishes absolutely nothing for your cause. Who knew?
-
Shocking if true.

Eta: post-read they're going to run her. They think because of the current administration, people will vote for her in droves and the Overton Window keeps moving right. This stinks but I'm not confident they're wrong. The people will gleefully fall for it and continue to vote status quo, ignoring the losses keep coming, despite loss-adversion voting.
-
No. Kiss of death.
-
No! No. No. No. No.
Did I mention HELL NO!!!???
-
Who's up for losing again!!? Lets do this!

Kamalacaust/HRC 2028!!!! \s

I see what the status quo dem voters of Lemmy are doing here. It will only work for the gullible and cowardly
-
Alex Jones? That you?

Kamala Harris could further unite the party, have no impact, provoke a tea party, or even end up fragmenting it. We'll have to see how she evolves, with four years to go until the next election. If she doesn't improve and change, she's sure not to win the primaries.
-
I can guarantee that unless she runs as the 2028 republican candidate, she will lose by such a landslide it will be a founding myth for a post apocalyptic religion.

-
You realize our only other choice will be Gavin, right?
-
Our choice will be whoever the fuck we want to vote for in the primaries out of the people who chose to run.
-
Well, duh, but they will do everything they can to stack the deck. AOC isn't running for this, in exchange for keeping out they will let her run for Chuck's Senate seat.
Aside from the Chosen Candidate, everyone else who is running is just running for the name recognition, the ability to live large for a while on campaign cash, and then back out and support the Chosen Candidate when asked to.
-
-
If it's anything like the last few primaries, the majority of us won't have a choice at all, it will have been made before we even have a chance to vote.
Biden was picked in 2020 after the 3rd primary.
-
They will try to run all of Harris, Pritzger, Slotkin, Blinken and Shapiro. Every diehard zionist will be run.
