Oh, you dreamer. Mayor Pete or Joe will beat Trump. People who are not enamored of an ignorant bully are ready for someone SMART!

No one is being "bought".... that's just more feelings. No one is against environmental issues, it's the process where we differ. No one want to live in the stone age or destroy the economy for the sake of a no plan green BS deal.... 'cause that's what it is, fantasy BS that will not happen. Once the demodummies said we had 12 years (now 10) they lost America.
Reality check... Green is coming, we know that, but not at the expense of civilization.

Sounds like you're routing for the commie sociopath from North Korea at the expense of Americans? You are an American .... right? and you want Americans to be safe and defended against aggression.... right? Why would anyone be "gleeful' about a nuclear threat?

Care to explain that one?

Bernie Sanders can win the nomination and it may very well come down to a competition between Sanders and Biden, says a number of Democrat party experts, as we get ever closer to the official opening of primary season in Iowa on February 3, 2020 (39 days from today).

Democratic insiders: Bernie could win the nomination

“It may have been inevitable that eventually you would have two candidates representing each side of the ideological divide in the party. A lot of smart people I’ve talked to lately think there’s a very good chance those two end up being Biden and Sanders,” said David Brock, a longtime Hillary Clinton ally who founded a pro-Clinton super PAC in the 2016 campaign. “They’ve both proven to be very resilient.”

Democratic insiders said that they are rethinking Sanders’ bid for a few reasons: First, Warren has recently fallen in national and early-state surveys. Another factor, they said, is that he has withstood the ups and downs of the primary, including his own heart attack. At the same time, other candidates with once-high expectations, such as Kamala Harris, Cory Booker and Beto O’Rourke, have dropped out or languished in single digits in the polls.

“I believe people should take him very seriously. He has a very good shot of winning Iowa, a very good shot of winning New Hampshire, and other than Joe Biden, the best shot of winning Nevada,” said Dan Pfeiffer, who served as a adviser to former President Barack Obama. “He could build a real head of steam heading into South Carolina and Super Tuesday.”
Hold on to your hats people. This is likely to be a bumpy ride.

I sure hope Bernie can’t win Iowa. He is so annoying and way too far left. He cannot beat Trump.

I’m pulling for Pete Buttigieg or Mayor Bloomberg. Biden seems too laid back and slow to me. People are simply familiar with his name and don’t follow politics in general, which, in this coming election, will be to everyone’s peril. People need to be aware of the danger to our nation and our planet if Trump is re-elected.

It does not appear that the DNC wants Bernie to win, either.

Can you be very specific about the "dangers". Try not to ape CNN or MSNBC, but if you have real, measurable information I'd like to hear it, to "save" our nation.

I know what you like about Trump—the fact that the market has gone up and up and you are making money. It is total selfishness that motivates most Trump supporters. You types care nothing about our country—only yourselves. Shame on all of you!
I am not a Trump supporter. The only way I would vote for him is if any of the current Democrat front runners are his opponent and it is a close race in my state.

However, I do want to say regarding the bold that it is not making more money that I care about at this point, it is the fear of losing what we middle-income people have earned and saved; and we definitely do not want to suffer (via increased taxes) so that people who can work but refuse to do so and those people who are here illegally can have free health care. (And, yes, I do know that those people are the minority -- that most people who have some kind of government assistance do work or can't work -- but I am just disgusted with those Democrats who act as though they care nothing about those of us in the middle income tier.)

Again, I am NOT a Trump supporter, but I must admit that my husband and I have done better under his administration that we did under Bush II or Obama. I am almost positive that will not be the case if Warren, Sanders, Biden or Buttigieg wins.

What is your problem with Buttigieg? He is a moderate. Certainly, he cares more about the American people than Trump does. And yet you would vote for Trump!

Anyone who is in favor of reparations for people who enter the U.S. illegally or who advocates for free healthcare for people here in the U.S. illegally is an extreme liberal in my opinion (and definitely not a moderate). so, NO, I will not vote for him.

Buttigieg is not a moderate. He is just not as extreme left as Warren and Sanders.
