“Keep government out of my Medicare.” That’s the electorate Bernie would be facing. He can’t tell how much his plans will cost

and given he’s run on crazy shit for decades, he should have an idea.

I could care less what polls say right now. Bernie hasn’t been attacked yet by the legit establishment. Hillary had a cushion and we all saw how the Bro’s fucked her over.

If he does get the nom, he’s 45% to win imo, and the house becomes a tossup. You write off a lot of local races which in 2020 is a redistricting year so legit worst case scenario.

The general election will be “I will cut your taxes” vs “I want to triple the size of the government tomorrow” -- (edited) - spamlet Mar 2, 11:09 9
- I will say that I think there is a meaningful portion of the electorate would be fine with more taxes if they got something from it. The republican - pmb Mar 2, 11:14

  - Sorry, i was strongly agreeing with him. Should have made that clearer. -- nm - spamlet Mar 2, 11:11 6
    - My apologies. I was unsure who the "you" in your post was. Plus it gave me a passive way to agree with Will without uttering "I agree with Will" -- nm* - crash davis Mar 2, 11:13 5

        He called us, and we said, "Thanks but no thanks." -- nm - David Mar 2, 11:18 2
        
        There is no shame in admitting that it is time to reconsider. -- nm - crash davis Mar 2, 11:19 1
        
        He helped Philly win that whole extra game this year! -- nm - David Mar 2, 11:40
