re: #509 HappyWarrior
It’s apparent to me more than ever that this is all about Bernie’s giant ego. WE should be wanting candidates like Ossoff. People who are young and have fresh ideas and perspectives. Jon is our party’s future not Bernie who is old enough ot be his grandpa.
I think Bernie, who’s been an independent forever, has little grasp of how or why you need to build a COALITION to have a successful party. You’ll never elect a Sanders-approved progressive in large swaths of the country where you COULD elect someone more moderate, but the overall coalition can move the ball forward on progressive causes. I mean for cripes sake, we passed the ACA, because we COULDN’T pass anything more progressive, but with all its flaws it’s much better than the previous situation.
