It's gonna be a real funny thing when everyone who was citing polls has egg on their face.

How'd that "my opponent is muslim and socialist" work out for the GOP the last 2 presidential elections?

The problem is the lack of credibility of the claims to Obama. Not quite the same with Bernie Sanders.

You seem to be painfully unaware of the boy who cried wolf.

Worse yet, bernie is a Democratic Socialist. So he's about as socialist as public libraries and public roads.

So you aren't really gonna get a lot of traction from that particular attempted jab.

And if you think "Democratic socialist" means much to the average voter, you hold them in higher regard than I.

But this is all a thought exercise anyway.

It's amusing to me, that you hold voters in a low regard, and yet you want them to decide what laws you must live by.

Are you a petty tyrant at heart?

I trust voters enough to know that "socialist in the style of Scandanavia" is not their grand-pappy's socialism.
I trust voters enough to know that "socialism in the style of Western (not Eastern!) Europe" isn't such a bad thing.

And you're right. It's a thought exercise, cause Bernie will win, and that will be that.

No, I'm not gonna put money on it.

After a couple debates I might. After Iowa I will recant or double down.

Not a petty tyrant, just a realist.

Good on you, then.

Well, that's some confidence. There's $5 on the table for your chosen charity if you come around.
