Hickenlooper blows it in CA, gets booed

[jillian]

Well he got one thing right, main street America ain't gonna buy the socialism BS.

.

They also aren’t buying the criminal bigot in the White House

 

[Olde Europe]

But the Democratic Party isn't moving Left, or so I'm told.

What was he thinking? Doesn't he know what has happened to his party?

Yeah, what was that man thinking, serving up rightarded talking points? The Goobers have tried for decades to hang that "socialism" label around the liberals' necks, and Hickenlooper thinks he should abet that effort? And that before an audience of Californian Democratic activists?

Really, what was this man thinking?

Do you think California is the place to gauge the movement of the Democratic Party?

Perhaps you should be looking at Buttqgieg

Buttplug would fit nicely with California

 

[HenryBHough]

Democrats?

Thinking?

Re-read the party rule book before next inserting foot in mouth!

Really? 65% disapprove of impeachment and 70% approve of his handling of the economy. And to quote an infamous commiecrat operative, it the economy stupid. LMAO

That Asian girl behind him looks terrified.

sorry, here's the thing. "Moderates" don't win.

Let's review.

Hillary Lost running as a moderate.
Romney lost running as a moderate.
McCain lost running as a moderate.
Kerry lost pretending to be a moderate (Just ignore those pics with Jane Fonda, I'm a war hero!")
Gore lost running as a moderate.

Personally, if you are keen on a "Moderate", then vote for Joe Biden, not Hickenlooper... whose polling at 1%.

But you aren't going to win standing for nothing.

Capitalism has turned a lot of people off, and is in trouble, in part because today's conservatives have wrecked it with their goofy, ignorant, simplistic pseudo-libertarian approach to it.

The Left has wrecked our culture, the Right has wrecked out socio-economics.

Thanks, wingers.

Our culture is just fine. Americans have always had this culture.

The thing is, you try to pretend that there has been some great change in it... there hasn't.

If anything, the culture has gotten more conservative than when I was growing up.

If socialism appeals to people now, it's because Capitalism is a shit sandwich for most of the population working two jobs to make ends meet.

Untrue. 70% like the economy but where did you get the idea that they`re giving Trump credit for it? The economy has been on the rise since 2010.

New Quinnipiac poll shows Biden leading Dems, Trump not getting credit for the economy

Several things. But the biggest and most destructive is this ridiculous notion that regulation is a bane to capitalism, when the fact is that regulation is a critical component of capitalism. The question shouldn't be whether regulation should exist, it should be on how to make it more efficient and effective. But no, that's too complicated for those who place Reagan's "government is the problem" speech line right next to their Bible in importance.

My other favorite is the way the Right is trained to turn a completely blind eye to our increasing wealth inequality, advocating against a safety net, mocking those on the low end of the socio-economic spectrum, which plays right into the hands of those pushing socialism, all gift-wrapped nice and pretty for them like it's Christmas morning. This is pure willful ignorance.

I'm a capitalist and I hate watching what the Right is doing to capitalism.

Yeah, and your dear leader said 1% annual GDP growth was the new normal. Take your commie talking points and shove them.

What exactly do you mean by safety net? Don't we already have one? As for regulation, nobody is saying there shouldn't be any, but it is normally massive and wasteful. It is not unreasonable to cut red tape.

Ok....but you are aware that wealth inequality grew at a faster pace, and wider gap during Obama than anytime in American history?
Just sayin.
You are limiting your thinking.

The eventual democratic candidate will my run on a socialist platform
He or she will run on. Healthcare, education, immigration reform, the environment

Same thing the socialist want

Hickenlooper had a blooper

Socialism, he said, is not super

But his crowd, in their drunken stupor

Screamed, yes it is! And dumped him in the pooper.

The dems need to run a shrink, as they're courting a bunch of nuts....

Good gawd. I don't go by who is in the freaking White House. This is a systemic, even cultural issue.

My thinking is not limited.
