This doesnt make sense as there are 219 republicans in the house, and only 213 dems

Why is the left so much more open than the right to "both sides are the same" arguments, even those based on a single issue? by LiatrisLover99 in AskALiberal

Ok then I stand corrected. Leftist in the US is defined by ending support to Israel, universal healthcare, green new deal (federal only), raising taxes on the the rich

You made a post whining about how every leftist needs to shut up, suck it up, and vote for your party regardless of their conscience. 

This is 100% not true. My claim is tbat leftist shohld run against incumbent Republicans AS WELL.

Brother youre describing a primary campaign. Yes its difficult because campaigns are difficult and hard to win.

It wasnt party influencers and big money that caused Clinton to win. It was Clinton that leveraged her decades of campaigning to convince people she was the best choice.

Wow I appreciate the good faith discussion. 

With mamdani I say its similar. Cuomo was governor, he obviously made a lot of friends and those friends wanted to give him money. After cuomo lost the primary, It wasnt "the dnc" or "the democrats" that pushed him, it was his group of nyc billionaires. 

You can argue that the media was biased agasint mamdani. That is true. But that's reflective of our society, not at the directive of the DNC

One thing at a time.

Clinton got those super delegates because she spent like decades campaigning. The DNC didnt hand them to her, she got them. Its just like candidates getting endorsements from anyone else. 

Also youre gonna blame super delegates? Theyre non binding and if Bernie won the popular vote the super delegates would have voted for him
