We do not HAVE a nominee. YOU may be of the opinion that we have finished with the Primaries and we have a Nominee, or is it that you want NO Primaries because YOU have already decided?
Just when did we get to the point in this country when the PEOPLE have no CHOICE??
And who is this 'Left' you speak of as if you are not a part of it? The opposite of Left is Right. So assuming, since you are on this Left Forum, you are a Democrat, therefore Left.
THIS is what lost us the Senate and Congress AFTER the LEFT won the WH, the House and Senate.
Slamming the voters when all they are asking for is to be given a choice of candidates who have a record of supporting Progressive policies.
How dare the voters, really.
And you could not be more wrong about the mid terms. While the leadership was backing losing candidates, the Left was busy SAVING the seats of Progressive Candidates, working locally to get Progressive issues on ballots and electing DEMOCRATS at local and state levels.
Feel free to support your candidate.
I hope we don't have to put up this kind of thing for the next year and a half.
I would hope we can discuss ISSSUES and the other Primary Candidates who have an absolute RIGHT to run for the office of President, and the voters have the right to choose who they think best represents them.
Again, there is no NOMINEE and there won't be for quite some time.
As for the right, who cares about the Right? Why do you care about them?
It is insulting to DUers here to assume they would not recognize right wing POLICIES being pushed on them, or smears against Democrats when they see them.
Until the Admins here announce that there is to be no discussion of Primary challengers, which will be the day when a majority here will be gone, you are complaining about the rules of this forum.
Try selling your candidate instead of bashing DUers for doing their duty as citizens, considering all their options regarding who they believe is the best choice for President of country.
