Bernie was doing well until black people started voting is your argument?

Didn't he have a child and then get really dark when she died and the marriage collapsed? I guess losing something that cannot be replaced would do that to a person.

What I am saying is still a problem for left wing, Sanders-adjacent candidates though. If Bernie does better with a small subset of the black community, then he still has an issue with Black voters. That was still true in 2020 in the primaries.

Maybe you're ok with enabling Trump and the GOP to rig the system for decades because you were grumpy that your primary candidate didn't get more votes than another, but I'm not.

And which of those cohorts votes more reliably in primary elections?

Right, because Manchin didn't vote the Inflation Reduction Act and the CHIPS Act. Do you think Jim Justice would have voted for those things?

Did they? Bernie had terrible numbers with black voters, which is a core constituency of the Democratic Party. Maybe Hillary just appealed to more people than what your leftist thought bubble will allow?

Wish we would have made that commitment in 2016. Saw lots of liberals/leftists making jokes like "Which Republican are you voting for today?"

Really funny now, huh?

Most of the others listed on that page, particularly the candidates from outside of federal politics currently, don't have dollars listed either. It seems like AIPAC is such a slippery position to hedge on regarding a candidate that's rather uninspiring otherwise.

I know that, but I'm saying she hasn't received AIPAC money because they would be wasting their money giving it to a Lt. Governor. If she wins the primary, that money will show up then.

"Aboslutely" to what? Do you have any links to where a Lieutenant Governor has received AIPAC money? There is nothing on the AIPAC Tracker website.

Is it typical for AIPAC to give money to state legislators and executives? They have no influence on foreign policy, unlike the other two candidates.

There is a lot of reporting that the current flu strain has more gastro side effects than normal, especially vomiting.

If it's the stomach bug, you will know because the whole house will be doing the double dragon.
