I'd also love to know where she gets this "49%" want her in the debates. She came in behind several people who aren't even running anymore in the last primaries. Link to comment

It's literally what he said. 39 minutes ago, knapplc said: And I don't know why we have to play this game. The message "Everyone should vote against Trump" isn't that controversial. Then make the case but don't resort to illogical narratives like "not A is the same as A". It undercuts whatever message you're trying for because it's clearly untrue. 1 Link to comment

Danny Bateman Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I don't think it's controversial to say a third-party vote in our system is a wasted vote. But that's just my opinion. And most states are not competitive so it doesn't matter there anyway. Link to comment

You know that what he means is not voting for Trump's opponent is the same as voting for Trump. It's fine to argue with that, but it's clear he didn't mean what you're saying he meant.

knapplc Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 We had this debate in 2016. I'm not interested in repeating it. I apologize for calling your wife a bloated warthog, and I bid you good day. Link to comment

I'd just let it go, but he's arguing for people who might vote third party or not vote at all to instead vote for Trump. I know that's not his intention, but that's an unintended consequence of his argument. 17 minutes ago, knapplc said: We had this debate in 2016. I'm not interested in repeating it.

RedDenver Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Never let it be said that the DNC can't find new and innovative ways to suck and be even more disliked: Link to comment

Her situation points out exactly how exclusionary the DNC and Dem party as a whole is to someone who does not toe the party line (group think) 2. She's a reasonable and honorable (from what I know about her) human being unlike the 2 geezers that are remaining 3. This is yet another example of the hypocrisy of the Democrat party in regards to gender and ethnicity and it shows how utterly full of crap the entire party is That's a few good reasons aside from the bogus conspiracy theories that are championed here 1 Link to comment

I think it's the wrong way to argue it though. 1 Link to comment
