The party created this mess by not running a real primary in '16.

That is, actual challengers who could have beat Hillary played good party soldiers and didn't run.

Leaving the door open for Bernie...


Had they run a real primary then Bernie would be our Ron Paul. A fringe candidate very few took seriously. That is even if he ran in '16.


But because there were no other choices, people actually listened and liked what they heard.

They continued to doubt him since then, and didn't learn a fucking thing from '16 in the sense that...it seems a lot of folks thought Biden was a lock in the way they thought Hillary was a lock.

Plus the bench is fucking thin.

And they didn't flush the clinton campaign folks down the toilet like they should have. Theres no reason Kamala should be at home while Amy and Pete are still on the stage.

You can't tell me party strategists, etc thought Pete would be a frontrunner.


To me the whole "Ready For Hillary" (ie its her turn) is the root cause of a lot of this shit. I swear I started seeing that phrase before Obama was even half way done with his 2nd term too.
