Sanders...Better than expected in Iowa

[Agit8r]

Regardless of the razor-thin percentile, Sanders "won" last night.....an amazing feat for a guy who many thought stood nary a chance against Clinton.

For democrats, the question that lingers is simply this: Is Sanders' success due to his own policies and messages, or is it due to an intense dislike by many progressives toward Clinton?

Probably a bit of both

I see that the moronic right wingers are just repeating the same old crap..."Sanders is too old"...Sanders is a socialist"..."Hillary is a bitch:....."Hillary will soon to be in jail"....etc. etc.

Bottom line is this......Clinton or Sanders will occupy the oval office in 2017...The Senate will revert to blue and a lot of right wingers on here will come up with new screen names.

If Trump's the nominee, the dems take the senate. It's really inevitbable because look at the gop seats in play.

Fla, Il, Ind, Missouri, NH, NC, OH, Penn and Wisc. The Dems need 5, and in all of these states, the gop can't have the establishment stay home, and racism won't play well.

republicans will find a way ,,,even if it means cutting election days in half in minority areas Rule of thumb ,,NEVER put anything past a republican

Waaah

Don't feel too bad, Rusty......right wingers can still visit the WH as tourists.

 

[thereisnospoon]

His own policies are failures so it must have to do with a certain hate towards the hil.

Interesting reaction...
I suppose your blind loyalty to Hillary is the meaning behind that emoticon?

It is the younger generation coming out in huge crowds.. They are tired of the corruptness and price of their education .

Don't forget this....Iowa is just one state. And because it is a Caucus state, the vote is not representative. In fact all of the primaries and caucuses are plagued by low turnout.
In any event, young people who are frustrated with.....everything, see Sanders as some kind of savior. And some of those young people actually believe Sanders can deliver all of the free stuff he's talked about.
It is absolutely frightening that someone who would believe the possibility of getting something for nothing actually can come to fruition can vote...

Most of these educated young folk aren't looking for a free hand out, but an affordable education, and American Dream..
This is the first time I have really followed the Caucus..I find it very interesting..Thanks..

Agreed.....In my generation, us young folks rallied against the war on Nam....We had a substantial stake in that disaster. Hopefully, today's younger generation will also realize that, not only the ridiculous cost of student loans, but the corrupt economic system must be ameliorated if they wish for (at least) the same standard of living of us parents.

The cost of student loans....is a product of government interference in the higher education system.
It isn't the loans that are the problem. It isn't even the high cost of advanced education..
The problems are....
1. there are over 1.8 million BA/BS degrees earned in 2011/12 and another 750k MA/MS degrees....Less than HALF were earned in Business, Engineering, Math and Health sciences. The rest were all liberal arts and humanities, That means more than 1.2 million degrees earned by people who will struggle to find jobs that will allow them to make an income at a level that will enable them to not only run a household, but to pay off the loans they owe to the American taxpayers.
The problem is there are far too many people earning college degrees when instead they should be deferring formal education to gaining experience in the working adult world....
The insistence that college is for everyone who wants to attend is a problem.....
And now with Sanders claiming he will provide a college education free of charge to the student will have people believing that the doors are open to whomever wants to go....That is not true. Colleges and Universities still have and will continue to have admissions standards. I wonder what Sanders is going to say to the kids looking for the miracle of free college are going to say about that?

I do think most of those students going after Bernie are already in the college system fighting to pay their tuition and book fee's.

My youngest son is in his 1st year of a private University , he supports Bernie and I have never heard of him talking about free stuff.
Most kids that go on to college have to have a brain with the competition going on now, like you said.

My son is a hard worker and I feel bad that most jobs require a BA, or more if they are going to be able to live especially in the areas where the good jobs are.
Most of those trade schools careers don't make the money.
Rent is out of control, let alone buying a house.

Right now there are affordable schools, but don't you think these big companies would rather hire from a University than a local college. if they both had good grades..

There are always those who want and expect free handouts, they are takers. And then there are the doers of this world who still find a way and do really well.

Regardless of the razor-thin percentile, Sanders "won" last night.....an amazing feat for a guy who many thought stood nary a chance against Clinton.

For democrats, the question that lingers is simply this: Is Sanders' success due to his own policies and messages, or is it due to an intense dislike by many progressives toward Clinton?

The primaries in SC and NV will provide some answer.

I think Sanders is the next president. Only Rubio is electable nationally for the GOP and only by a narrow possibility. The rest, except Kasich, are DOA in a general.

Hillary still has a chance but as Sanders gains momentum the independents will go towards him. It is Sander's to lose now.

but I still hope he does win, been rootin' for him from the jump

If you offer enough free stuff to enough idiots, that's possible.

I think the successes of Trump and Sanders are precisely because the presumed nominees were another Clinton and another Bush, and that made all of America feel like we were being made to lick up our own vomit.

Sanders and Trump attract the angry losers.

If you think you are a loser because of Mexicans, you went with Trump.

If you think you are a loser because of rich people, you went with Sanders.

Yep. Just like they did for Eugene McCarthy and George McGovern. Who? You ask......exactly.


They both got the shit kicked out of them.

You only have con-talk-radio cliches. Go sit down and think for yourself for a change. Then come back.
