Had some free time to burn, so I thought I'd do some forensics on the failed Dim party.
Yeah, they're hard at work trying to unite the party behind one of the many aging Marxists, most of which will be in their 70s or older by 2020, but what do we see when we look at the party, what issues can the party unite behind?
The Wall? No, half the party thinks stopping the illegal invasion is a good idea, so stank-tuary cities is a failed leftist agenda that splits the party, so count Moonbeam out as a possible contender.
Bernie can't tack down an issue if he had a giant wall of flypaper to work with, one minute he's saying high taxes kill the economy, then claims taxing the so called "Rich" is a good idea, never once explaining what the money would be used for, especially after gutting the military budget, so we can count that Marxist out as well, and I don't even have to mention the failed Faucahauntus Marxist, that carcas is dried and dusty.
So what unites the Dims? Well beyond their averice of Trump, not one damn thing!
They can't agree on free trade, foreign affairs and health care, even Wall Street is a monstrous issue, its the bread and butter of the party, but if one remembers, their beloved Marxist campaigned against the evil 'Street' via the communist movement known as OWS.
One could say "Environment", we all love the planet, right? Problem for the Dims, is they abused that card when they used the 'Wall Street' crony connection to fund leftist across the globe, all failed, like that of the fraud, Solyndra, as well as the Chinese connection to their failed "Green Energy" lie, where they funneled billions of taxpayer dollars to Chinese communists an Marxists around the globe.
So, what does unite all these freak factions? Safe spaces? BLM? Muscums? stifling Free Speech under the guise of hate speech/trigger warnings?
Let us not forget, the party lost over 1000 Legislative seats under the Marxist, and for good reason, the country is still majority Conservative, that's a serious mountain for the party to overcome, not to mention, when one looks at the election of Trump, the only safe spaces left for the Dim party, was along the coasts, the rest of the country voted Right.
(https://conservativepoliticalforum.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fpoliticalmaps.org%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2016%2F11%2Fnew-york-times-house-of-representatives.png&hash=3ae4d752bd011c94bf2f978d2563e6c441fb0d0a)
Not since 1946 has the Dim party been in such a hole, but keep in mind, even the Dims of that day still loved the country and dividing the nation along race, sexual orientation or women, was not part of their agenda, no, the party of the left in its modern era, is not pro-American in any sense of the word, so what will they run on, Pedophilia as just a misunderstood way of life?
As I've been saying for years, the only reason people still see the Dim party as viable, is because the media keeps the corpse on life support, and the gop'E needs the left to further their marxist agenda for crony capitalism to exist.
For all intents and purposes the Dim party is dead, it will be decades before it returns, assuming the base doesn't abandon it for a new acronym such as the New Nationalist Socialist Party, better known as the NAZI party, Socialist Democrat Party, Fabian Society Reborn (FSR), you get the point.
The only way the Dim party will continue, is if the gop'E sees fit to keep them alive. So the truth is, as it stands today, Conservatives #1 enemy, is the RNC/gop Establishment party.
TEA, all!
Sorry if grammar is an issue here, my spell check is as dead as the Dim party. :smile:

We are reminded every day why democrats keep losing elections. If one watches FNC they continually put folks of differing views on for a two/three minute debates. A lot of democrats are called democrat strategist. After watching these folks for some time I understand why democrats continue to lose elections. They are following the advice of these clowns who are totally out of touch with the majority of the American people.

Good point.
This exposes the schizophrenia in the party. The party loyalists know where the money comes from, Wall Street, while the hardcore leftist base, which in truth is nothing more than about 27% of what was in 2009, thinks it can win elections without corporate America.
So we have a schism within the party, one that is not about to heal anytime in the next decade in the least.
Let's take two of the most powerful leaders in the party, DiFi and Fuglosi, the base hates them, and they are both being challenged.
The title exposes the schism within, the party is challenged from the far left, in a country that prides itself on American values.
What's 27% divided by 3? That's what the Dim party is dealing with, they're splitting a tiny base between, Bernie Fabian Socialists, Marxists, and the Crony Corporate party.
Good short read for those wondering what 2020 has in store. Try not to laugh at their pain, it's real, not imagined. :biggrin:
Pelosi, Feinstein facing challengers amid protests from their leftIt's not a good time to be Nancy Pelosi or Dianne Feinstein. After a combined six-plus decades in Washington, they have become "the Man," at least to a growing number of progressives who see them as embodiments of a Democratic Party taken over by "corporatists."
Start with how immigration rights activists shouted Pelosi off the stage and called her a "liar" at her own manicured press conference in San Francisco this week, saying she isn't liberal enough on immigration.
Feinstein's star is even more tarnished after saying President Trump still had the potential to be a good president, causing progressives to rip her for being less than California-grade resistant to Trump. When the Berkeley IGS Poll last week asked California voters if they would back Feinstein for re-election next year, they responded with a rousing, "meh." Only 45 percent wanted six more years of DiFi. More alarming for Feinstein: Only 30 percent of those under 30 would vote for her.
So what are the alternatives? Who is stepping up to take on two of the wealthiest members of Congress, women with near-100 percent name recognition?
There is only one place to go to get answers to tough political questions like this: the Elks Club in Alameda.
On a recent evening there, the Alameda Democratic Club hosted a Progressive Candidate Night. The fact that a Bay Area Democratic club held a candidates night solely devoted to progressives more than a year before the next election, and that 100 people showed up on a Wednesday night, tells you something.
It tells you that voters are mad. Not just at Trump but at a system they see as failing them and at the people who have been in power for decades — no matter who they are or what they've accomplished. Voters, particularly those Sen. Bernie Sanders inspired to get involved — are mad. And they're taking it out on the Man.
So at the Elks Club, the revolution was fomenting. Or maybe that was the sound of the pretzels in my stomach.
"I am running for U.S. Senate as a working-class representative for the people," David Hildebrand, a 39-year-old policy analyst who lives in Sacramento, told the audience. He also pointed out that he's been unemployed at times and paid his way through college over nearly a decade while working multiple jobs.
"I'm not interested in corporations, their money and what they think," Hildebrand said. "I am a Democratic socialist."
So is Sanders. Hildebrand volunteered on his presidential campaign last year, and just like Bernie, Hildebrand promised not to accept "corporate money."
All the candidates at the forum pledged to do the same. Democrats often tout themselves as the party of working people, but a lot of their money comes from a different source. Senate and House candidates raised nearly $47 million in the 2016 campaign cycle from Wall Street interests. That's more than the $44 million they received from labor union PACs and officials, according to FactCheck.org.
And arguably the greatest political fundraiser on the planet not named Barack Obama is Pelosi. Through the end of last year, Pelosi had raised $567.9 million since entering House leadership in 2002 — $141 million in the last election cycle.
For perspective, Hildebrand raised $4,260 through June 30, according to campaign finance filings, which is what Feinstein likely spends on scarves during an election cycle. Stephen Jaffe, who is challenging Pelosi, has raised $46,722.69. And we include the cents only to give his totals a couple of more digits.
That money discrepancy is part of the problem for Jaffe, a San Francisco employment lawyer and Sanders acolyte. The first presidential campaign Jaffe remembers was Eisenhower versus Stevenson in 1952. Since then, no candidate has inspired him like Sanders.
After the Vermont independent lost last year's Democratic primary battle against Hillary Clinton, Jaffe started thinking about what he could do to carry on the senator's work. So he decided to run for Congress against arguably the most powerful Democrat in the country. Doesn't matter that he's never run or held office before — this was about taking a stand against a party gone wrong.
"We are here because we are the true believers. We represent the fundamental core values of the Democratic Party," Jaffe told the Alameda audience. "I do not adhere to the politics and programs and practices of the people presently in control of the Democratic Party. They are centrists. They are corporatists. And they are elitists."
The Elks Club filled with applause.

These candidates will be like shooting fish in a net. Their hypocrisy will be so easy to expose on the campaign trail, where they claim to be against capitalism and corporations, only to discover Wall Street is their primary backer.
Cruz proved you can run a campaign on grassroots funding, while libs are not yet in a position to contribute to any campaign, they're too busy taking Soros funds/pittance, to protest at any number of Marxist causes, and it's nowhere near enough to live on as they subsidize their income with food stamps.
It's too rich, the very people that claim to be against the evils of corporate America, will be taking funds from the people they claim are destroying their country.

'I think that she wasn't particularly good at articulating the things that she wanted to do, and unfortunately we live at a time right now where articulating what you want to do is more potent in the electorate than the other way around, obviously, when Trump only said he was going to 'Make America Great Again,' said Clooney.
'Don't you think the next Democrat who runs should just run with a blue hat that says, 'Make America Great Again?'' he jokingly added.
...
'They don't cry,' Clooney said proudly. 'I cry more than they do. I cry four times a day right now, because I'm so tired.'
Of course, Clooney is more qualified to run for the WH - he cries 4 times a day - and darn proud of it!!!

But I'm talking about those running against Establishment Dims, such as Fuglosi and DiFi, their contenders are campaigning against Wall St, yet somehow hope to magically draw enough funds to campaign on.
Their wonderful Marxist savior stabbed them in the back, he backed OWS all the while sucking Wall Street's knob, this has much to do with the ire of what's left of the base.

That's leftist rhetoric designed to make the Marxists appeare as one of the little people.
Truth is quite the opposite though.
Warren, who has positioned herself as a fighter against Wall Street and corporate interests, has amassed $660,000 in campaign contributions from the securities and investment industry, making the sector the sixth most generous to her campaign committees since first running for Congress in 2011.Warren has also received $2.4 million in donations from lawyers and law firms, the second most of any industry that has given to her campaigns.

Why do I LOVE Nancy Pelosi...?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4A4Rq9TJP8
QuoteWhile urging new gun laws in response to a madman's massacre of country music fans in Las Vegas, Pelosi said, "Responsible gun owners from the hills of Arizona to the duck blinds of Minnesota, all over, say, 'We're all law-abiding, we have many guns, we have as many guns as he had, but we have,' uh, we have, um, uh," she said, turning to moderator Chris Cuomo, before repeatedly waving her hands, as if emphasizing words that refused to exit her mouth.
"Background checks," she finally blurted out.
During another moment, she appeared to freeze while she was talking about the alleged Russian "hacking" of the presidential election, Pelosi said, "This isn't a frivolous thing. Many of us who, um–" she said before pausing, staring at the audience.
"...are interested in the public knowing" about the alleged interference, she finally continued.
Another time, it seemed her mouth was operating more quickly than her brain.
While talking about her response to Puerto Rico rebuilding after the hurricane, Pelosi said, "On the money side, uh, we have a letter," she began before taking a deep breath.
"We have a letter, uh, that we're sending to ask, uh, we want the Co— a letter came, not from us, the board that was established, to establish, to re-establish the, uh, financial integrity," she stumbled, just as CNN cut to the audience, showing them staring expressionless at the Minority Leader.

Nancy is the PERFECT leader of the Democrats. They're out of ideas, sputtering and waving their arms like Parachuteless Wiley Coyote trying to fly. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Too precious!

They have used the same dog whistle terms so often, that's all that comes to mind over everything else.
Run out of things to say? No problem, just keep throwing these out:
Racism!
Background check
Heart stopping premium increases
fight for children
Unfairness
Against that...
Robinhood in reverse
Hoax
Pre-existing conditions
not legitimate
Insult to the intelligence
Essential
very sad, deadly joke.
the vote is sacred (unless they lose, then it's rigged)
Please - please - please! We LOVE Nancy!

Nancy Pelosi, one half of the dementia sisters.
Ok ... I laughed so hard, I was crying ...if you need a good laugh ... watch all the way through. It's really hard to believe she's still in office! We shall overcome!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Calls for Pelosi to step down are called "Craven"...? We call it the source of humor! :thumbsup:
http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/nancy-pelosis-team-rejects-craven-call-for-her-to-quit/article/2636651
QuoteA top Democratic aide warned Thursday that Rep. Linda Sanchez's call for House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and her deputies to step aside would antagonize the Congressional Hispanic and Black Caucuses.
Keep them on the Democratic Plantation.
QuoteThe aide called Sanchez's request "particularly craven" because it comes after the 77-year-old Pelosi, of California, managed to keep the caucus entirely unified against major GOP legislation, including a bill to repeal and replace Obamacare.
They were so confused, 'WTF is this hag saying...?"
QuoteHer spokesman, Drew Hammill, said there is no threat the 194-member caucus will try to oust her.
Hmmm... not quite sure, you better put them to the test, you know, try to pass some really nasty legislation, make sure they fall in line.
Try a segregated water fountain bill, pull something out of the Democratic past.
Quote"Leader Pelosi enjoys wide support in the caucus and has always said she not in Congress on a shift but on a mission," Hammill said.
Making a Tequila run, maybe...?
Quote"Leader Pelosi is focused on winning back the House and anything else is a distraction from our path to the Majority."

You Democrats are just too funny!
With BLM thrashing ACLU, Sanchez attacking Pelosi, antifa starting to attack lefties......... we are entering good times, the best of times.
The left forgot that once you hand out enough "special victimhood cards", you'll eventually have a big brawl where they're all jealous of each others' perks and special deals.
Throw in the collapse of "Russia !!", the realities of the Awan Bros, the Hillary- Obama crime leftovers, the dossier flameout (actually prosecution of whoever funded it and wrote it)..... this is shaping up to be just stunning.

I just posted something similar on a discussion page to a couple of libs. I can't believe how these libs can't see the reality of the Dim party's situation, all splintered to shit, base abandoning the so called cause, anti American bull shit, and they still think the country is going to vote them back in, if ever. :lol:

It's actually pretty basic, and very calculated. Some of their morons may be just oblivious, but I think it's a strategy, a very bad one that is going to implode / immolate them in 3 to 6 months, by the rank & file & top dogs.
They took every crime that they knew Obama, Hillary, Brennan, Clapper, Rice-Powers-Huma, Podesta, et al could be charged with, and invented the same crimes (fake / falsified) for Trump.
To get in the way of dem investigations / prosecutions. And maybe find a Hail Mary tiny detail to hang on Trump.
These folks are up to their eyeballs in Russian payoffs, collusion, etc..... so a mirror-image version was created for Trump.
Ditto for democrat election tampering, racketeering, fraud, intimidation, etc. They've just invented all the same charges for Trump, out of thin air.
The dems are on the hook for actual assassination with Seth Rich, and actual treason / espionage with the Awans. So they desperately need a narrative that makes Trump into the biggest international crime lord in the world.........THE DOSSIER, lol. Somebody's ass is gonna owe somebody many millions in judgements, and be facing jail time, very soon. It's terrific that this could be McCain or Jeb, and a lot of dems.
Mueller is their only remaining hope to do a Scooter Libby on Trump, and that's not looking too promising for them.
They know, as always, that the media will run full bore against Trump and hide everything about the dems. That's a given.
The thing I don't get is the obvious end game where nothing they've faked will ever be true, and will in fact be fully vetted and disproven at some point.
How do they think they'll avoid this ? They will need a nuclear war to get the attention off their crimes in the bitter end. There is no end game for them other than a huge implosion and basically distinction. It's wild that they think there's a way out of this. Like little children, they appear to think that they can just keep babbling and grousing and yelling forever, and they'll somehow get away with everything.

Great summary, Andy!
I think ... sooner or later, they're gonna need a really good scape-goat.
Someone whom both Democrats, Republicans and Independents could agree upon, "This individual has a history of corruption, and justice is overdue." Hang something not-so-bad on them, and with a little luck, it'll call off the blood-lust of the public, and we can present a nice, clean, campaign again. Maybe... even get someone who's been sucking all the oxygen out of the room, or been on the fringe of Politics, giving the entrenched Establishment grief...
Let's speculate, WHO would make a good scape-goat?
I've always expected Huma to fall. Especially tied to Weiner, the MB, and now probably the Awans.
She would be a great Mata Hari / Tokyo Rose to market to the angry mob.
Even though she was Hillary's lover, protege, confidante, handmaid...... Hillary will no doubt burn her in a second.
But Powers, Rice, Rhodes, and others at that level are looking tasty now, too. One body may not be enough.

It would need to be someone(s) who has a sort of outside connection to the Democrats, but could be well connected to other parties we all agree are "evil". Huma fits that bill. She'll probably leave the country before anything happens, after transferring all the emails and data she'd need for a tell-all book. With that in mind, I think the Clintons would protect her, 100%.
Hillary has far too much money and power and friends in high places, to be touched. Might be good for a little CA$H redistribution back to Democratic coffers, in exchange for her freedom... a little Dem shakedown. :lol:
Debbie Wasserman-Schultz and her band of hackers, maybe? Everyone has an axe to grind with her, Democrats for her leaking insider material, Republicans for what she's done to honorable candidates - she's quite unlikable, and her band of hackers provides a good case for taking her down... and piling on a few extra allegations, the Democrat's way of laying-on-of-hands and cursing the scape-goat.
The Harvey Weinstein thing is just about run it's course of tying up the headlines - and the Democrats still need someone(s) to blame politically. IMO, Barak would stand behind Powers, Rice, Rhodes, Learner - just a guess, that he'd rally his "inside plants" to keep any investigation from really accomplishing anything - slow walking it into boredom. I doubt he views his people like Hillary, seems to, 'human resources', useful idiots.
They'll have to do something to regain their "brand" as the champion of the little people, sooner or later.
At this point the democrats are desperate to get rid of Hillary. They have another problem on their hands. Hollywood. They are desperate for cash but taking money from these Hollywood hypocrites will not look good and it has neutralized the sexist arguments about Trump. He said some terrible things but the lefts biggest donor actually did terrible things and it was ignored for decades.

Other than a sudden, unexpected, natural death - oh, heck, even Alex Jones would blame that on the CIA or someone.
If Democrats can funnel money through a Chinese laundry worker, Hollywood should have no problem.
What could lead to a plea bargain, or serious prison time for Lynch or Clinton?
http://dailycaller.com/2017/10/13/fbi-finds-new-documents-about-clinton-lynch-tarmac-meeting/
Quote"It is stunning that the FBI 'found' these Clinton-Lynch tarmac records only after we caught the agency hiding them in another lawsuit."
"Judicial Watch will continue to press for answers about the FBI's document games in court. In the meantime, the FBI should stop the stonewall and release these new records immediately," he added.
The FBI has until Nov. 30 to hand the newly discovered documents over to Judicial Watch.

The question: Is a Clinton, (Bill?) and Loretta Lynch going to get sent up the river?
Will Bill Clinton or Loretta Lynch plead the 5th?
Will Hillary ... finally clear her life of Bill, and turn state's evidence against him for colluding with Lynch & Comey to effect the outcome of an investigation? (She's got it in her...
what a fitting end to that womanizer!)
Will Loretta Lynch collapse under the threat of Prison time and turn on Hillary, Bill and 'connect' Barak Obama to this
and other atrocities?Will the Democrats instinctively circle-the-wagons and attempt to protect Lynch - or cast her aside and treat her as the real scape-goat?
Will Trump seize on this media distraction to unwind another Obama regulation, push through tax cuts, etc.? (Gotta admit, he timed this Obama care / Treasury defunding perfectly - while everyone was running for the hills away from Harvey Weinstein!)

But, when I arrived at the townhouse of Stanley Greenberg, the veteran Democratic strategist, on Capitol Hill, later that morning, it was not the distractions of the Trump White House that had him worked up. Greenberg was still fuming about Hillary Clinton.
Clinton was guilty of "malpractice" in how she conducted her 2016 Presidential campaign, Greenberg told me. Even worse, he said, Democrats were repeating the same political mistakes a year later. "Look at Virginia right now," Greenberg said, as soon as we sat down in his second-floor office. "We have a candidate"—Ralph Northam, the Democratic gubernatorial nominee—"running as Hillary Clinton.
He is running on the same kind of issues, and has the same kind of view of the world. It's the Republicans who talk about the economy, not the Democrats." This was the approach that doomed Clinton against Trump. The electorate was angry in 2016 and remains angry now, Greenberg said, and Northam, a Norfolk doctor, didn't get it. Neither did Clinton and the team of Obama veterans who staffed her Brooklyn headquarters. "If you live in the metro areas with the élites, you don't wake up angry about what's happening in people's lives," Greenberg said.
His rant was notable for a variety of reasons, not least because Greenberg was the pollster who helped Bill Clinton win the White House in 1992, and he has been a participant in every Democratic nominee's Presidential campaign since, including Hillary Clinton's. His criticism illuminates an urgent question for the Democratic Party, not just in next week's governor's race in Virginia but in the midterm elections of 2018 and beyond. Could Trump, as deeply polarizing and unpopular as he is, even be reëlected?
Greenberg and other prominent Democrats still furious about last year's Clinton campaign think it's entirely possible, unless the Party figures out, and fast, a way to tackle the problem that sealed Clinton's fate in 2016: how to appeal to the disaffected white working-class voters who provided Trump's unlikely win a year ago.

By the way, "Democracy for America (DFA)" is the old ACORN.
From the post above:
"We have a candidate"—Ralph Northam, the Democratic gubernatorial nominee—"running as Hillary Clinton. Dims throw one of their own under the bus, so they can kiss Virginia Governorship goodbye. :lol:
'RACIST CAMPAIGN': Liberal Group Slams Democratic Candidate Ralph Northam, Pulls Support from his "racist campaign."
"We refuse to be silent any longer and even remotely complicit in the disastrous, racist, and voter-turnout-depressing campaign Ralph
Democracy for America (DFA) slammed Democratic gubernatorial candidate Ralph Northam as "gutless" and "morally debased" announcing that they pulled all support from his "racist campaign."The far-left progressive group harshly criticized Northam for cracking under pressure and flip-flopping on key immigration issues after being called out by Republicans and President Donald Trump.
"Northam, Virginia's sitting lieutenant governor, has insisted he opposes sanctuary cities while also accusing Gillespie of fabricating the issue for political advantage," the Richmond Times-Dispatch reported.
President Trump launched an attack against Northam over Twitter for his weak stances on immigration in early October that led to criticism over his pro-sanctuary city stances.
