    Not sure what you mean by "Progressive". Different folks have differing ideas.

    I like her because she at least has some proven Anti Establishment street cred - which is why the Dem Establishment hates her. It is having AE cred that mostly determines my vote.

    She is that, and we agree. With that said I found zero common ground otherwise, so it wasnt enough for me.

    It's down to biden, trump, 3rd party for me in 2020. Which is once again a terrible set of choices to be honest.

    The only positive is that I can save time in deliberation, it's 90% done.

    It’s poor strategy.

    It gives him no room for error. A simple poor quarter of polling data ends his campaign. Way too early for this nonsense in a D primary.

    Jill was simply expressing how D’s snatch defeat out of the hands of victory or the same old dumb.

    This is a turn-out election. Obviously, Trump fatigue will be a major motivator but not the only one.

    On this we completely agree ... what a friggen clown show. Truly sad commentary on our political system. I think you may be right with respect to it being down to Biden/Trump as well.

    Deep sigh, I'm convinced its Joe based on discussions with family and friends that are democrats, its quite shocking by how wide a margin the moderates outnumber the progressives, like 10-1 around my parts. Outside of the hardcore trumpers, overall I see a solid 50% that want a moderate alternative, not a crazy person, Biden is the only one in double digits that even comes close. I'm convinced Joe is their only shot at winning, but perhaps i'm biased because he's the only one for me that is under serious consideration.

    Frankly I only know two people that are hardcore prog's and both IMO are close to being red flagged due to the mental anguish they have put themselves and their spouses through since November 16', they are family so I can't get away.

    There might be more from the friends circle but all have been quickly and efficiently removed from FB, deleted off group chats, and no longer invited out to gatherings because they just wouldn't shut the hell up about losing, sorry but you just can't stay inside my circle if you are a whiny little B****.

    You can't beat somebody with nobody. The dems have a stable of nobodies.
