(1,089 posts)They're like those asshole athletes who you just love to watch play when they're on your favorite team but suddenly realize what total jerks they are when they get traded and are now on the opposing squad.
I know who the real enemy is...and it ain't Bernie or Hillary or her hubby or Pelosi or any other Democrat. There's nothing wrong with bashing them when you believe one of their policies is boneheaded or their behavior is out of line. I had a few run-ins with my own liberal allies on WaPo over this. Even back then I was a Joe guy...in fact, my DU ID here is the exact same one I took back in the mid-2000s before he even decided to run in 2008. I looked over the political landscape after Kerry lost in 2004 and IMO Biden was the best Democrat to run in the next election at that time. I didn't see Obama coming outta the blue. Once it quickly came down to Barack vs Hillary some major squabbling between Dems took place on WaPo just like it apparently did here at that time. This delighted the Goppers who were on that forum no end which kinda upset me because the last thing I ever wanna do is give a Republican the smallest iota of pleasure.
I voted Obama in 2008/2012 and Clinton in 2016. In 2020 I'm gonna vote for the guy who I thought was best a dozen years earlier. You can't carry any intraparty grudges when you're about to do battle against evil. Trump is pure evil. The GOP is evil. It'll be a lot easier to vanquish them without any of Bernie's anarchists stabbing us in the back while we're trying to slay the true enemy at the same time. Let American traitors and Russian meddlers divide us and we will be the ones who get conquered. Bernie's people better wise up and wise up fast.
Gonna be one helluva campaign, boy. Best strap yourselves in.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
