I don't know Sanders will win but trying the same thing as 2016 all over again and expecting different results...what do they say about that again?
Warren is solidly my #2 choice but I really worry that the right propaganda machine will work better on her than Sanders. Probably the double punch of misogyny and anti-intellectualism working against her.
Trump would have a far easier time with Sanders if Warren realizes that to win she needs to keep on policy instead of slinging mud. Sanders would have an uphill battle in trying to win the MW and MA vote.I don't know Sanders will win but trying the same thing as 2016 all over again and expecting different results...what do they say about that again?

As far as trying the same thing twice... sanders is trying the same thing again. All Sanders is; is the left’s Ron Paul. Big ideas, big solutions, and an easy concept, but with very little facts and real research behind them.
It only seems like 2016 again to certain parties. If the BBs stay home again, then welcome to four more of Trump, if that's what you want...I don't know Sanders will win but trying the same thing as 2016 all over again and expecting different results...what do they say about that again?

I've said it over and over, but history has proven that the weight of the American electorate is in the middle, not on either wing, except in trying times such as depressions and wars. Trump is an anomaly but one with a chance at four more, with his solid base and independents and minorities staying home, which they will do with a Bernie campaign...
Yeah I think the constant line around Bernie speaking well to the MW farmer and minority voters better than most is bogus. The fact that he still lost all of the South and 3/4ths of the MW to Hillary kinda shoots that take down.
warren is spending a lot of time talking about policy in her talks around the country. that seems to be what is endearing her to lots of folks.
I get it, but when she actually has to face trump in a campaign can she resist her urges to go for low blows is the question.
i sort of think she should. pelosi is dragging him pretty regularly and publically and it seems to get him off of his game.
I just do not see anyone with a strong lean to the left beating Trump (Warren and Sanders). I still believe it is going to take a candidate who can appeal to the right center (who are ashamed of and embarrassed by Trump) to the left side of center. I basically like Warren, but have no use for Sanders.
I never really got the Bernie Bros thing because well over half of the DSA types I know personally or follow online are women.

Correct. I don't mind Pelosi's setting him off at all. In fact, I enjoy it. Maybe he'll have a stroke.
)) OTOH, I think it's damaging for a female presidential candidate to get down there in the mud with him. Maybe it's not the way things should be, but I think it's the way it is...
I hope the debate authorities make the candidates remained seated during the presidential debates and not allow them to walk around and hover behind the other candidate as trump did to Clinton. I also believe confining trump and his opponent to being seated for the duration of the debate will work against trump with his impulsiveness and attention span.
if she would have turned around and kicked him in his shriveled nuts when he did that i think she would have won in a landslide.
I've got a solution for the 10 candidates who are basically the same person in the debate selection process: just wrap them up in one big suit and take turns answering questions.
