It really helps cement yourself as the one who can think objectively in this country. Comngrats. <br /><br />As David Sirota points out <br />https://twitter.com/davidsirota/status/798931488075083777 <br /><br />The thing is only a handful of people in AMerica would have lost to Trump and the Dems picked the one most likely to do so. <br /><br /><br />I also find it funny that you say Obama was partisan. <br />Jeff Simpsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12118335402641807712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5888314760091661875.post-81232641593017979662016-11-25T21:42:25.189-06:002016-11-25T21:42:25.189-06:00This used to be a decent site when Capper was in c...This used to be a decent site when Capper was in charge. Unfortunately it has moved extremely left with Jeff given free will to post. Lets quit implying that Sanders was the better candidate. He was not. He might have excited the certain elements of the party during the primary but still would not have turned out the vote for of certain constituencies that Obama did. It is beginning to look more and more like Obama was the exception to the rule than what can be expected in the future. Does anyone truly think a 74 year old socialist that made his career in Washington was a better candidate against Trump? Trump won because people wanted change, the same reason Obama won. Obama promised to transcend politics and then proved to be as partisan as any other president. I don't fear Trump, I fear his followers. I also fear those who cannot comprehend that Trump won under the rules that were established well before he decided to run. I will await the hate from the left in response from my comment.Pragmatic Petehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15365966720800433820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5888314760091661875.post-4122376454502720092016-11-21T17:09:06.561-06:002016-11-21T17:09:06.561-06:00I wish we knew if the DPW was truly salvageable or...I wish we knew if the DPW was truly salvageable or not. I'm trying to stay optimistic, but it's sure tough these days. Today's federal court ruling on Wisconsin's gerrymandering gives a glimmer of hope.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
