Oh. Well, I have neither.
In case you missed it...my use of "homophobic" rhetoric was not aimed at the homo, Mayor Pete. It was aimed at you! To my knowledge Mayor Pete doesn't read this forum.
That settled...
Tomorrow is gonna be very interesting. Looks like Comrade Bernie will win the lion's share of California, and probably Texas too. He'll also pick up delegates in some of the other states. If Creepy Sleepy Quid Pro Quo Joe is hoping for a magical boost from his win in SC, it's probably too little, too late. In Cal, for instance, over 2 million votes have already been cast in the extended early voting period. Same thing in some of the other states. Meaning if some of those voters might have voted for Biden (now)… Oops! too late.
Back to my good friend, for whom I have neither fear nor aversion, many pundits are saying he dropped out "to save the Dem Party" from Bernie. Others are saying he just wants to position himself for either a possible VP offer, or a cabinet position should Biden or Bloomberg win. Some think that's unethical or conniving, but in a free society (which we still are...) Mayor Pete can do what he wants (that's legal). It would be a huge step up, for one so inclined seeking a career in politics, to go from mayor of a small city to being a part of a presidential administration. Of course, sorry Pete, you'll have to wait a bit longer. Trump is gonna win re-election.
My prediction is the DNC will be in full panic mode after Tuesday.

What “libs consider” is not relevant here.
From a purely technical and literal basis, it depends if your disapproval is an “aversion.” Using demeaning rhetoric as has been done here certainly rises to the level of aversion.

You would have your reputation and legacy tarnished by voting for a socialist with huge communist leanings for President of the United States of America?
I don't believe that unless you are way younger and naive vs. my more positive image of you.
Re: Presidential Election 2020
Sanders is going to continue to catch smit on his desire for America to go to antiquated socialism which always heads to communism.
Re: Presidential Election 2020
Amy K. has dropped out and will endorse Biden tonight...as will Mayor Pete. A private jet was sent to South Bend to retrieve Mayor Pete and fetch him (her? is he/she the wife or husband :icon_roll:?) to Dallas tonight. Nice that all these "green" concerned folks jet around on private planes, burning kerosene.
Warren has been told to stay in the race as her support would likely go to Comrade Bernie.
Re: Presidential Election 2020
Dem establishment is coalescing behind Biden. That’s bad news for Bloomberg, Sanders, and, maybe, Trump.

I think Bloomberg could end up with the nomination. I guess tomorrow will tell if he has a chance.
I just can’t see moderate democrats getting behind Biden. If they do, they’re even dumber than I thought.

Trump will blow either one of them, or both if together, OUT OF THE WATER!
Re: Presidential Election 2020
Biden :laugh:
The gaffes! He's a stand-up comic! We'll see how he does on "Super Thursday." And, did you see him try to recite "All men are created equal..."? More comedy. He's the best the Dems have to offer? It would be funny if it weren't so sad.
Re: Presidential Election 2020
Biden speaks more coherently and accurately than Trump. Just think about that.

Not even close, but I knew you'd be saying this. Your hate is so predictable.

Didn't realize you had that good of a sense of humor. Biden's always reminded me of Steve Martin's character in "The Jerk" and does so even more now.
"My story? Okay. It was never easy for me. I was born a poor black child. I remember the days, sittin' on the porch with my family, singin' and dancin' down in Mississippi..."
