"Stoddard told the panel that nominating a "Socialist" was going to devastate the Democrats, and that the party would not recover "for decades."

Yes and No.

Hell the Democrats nominated Democratic Socialist McGovern in 1972, got wiped out, and then won the next election with Carter.

The negative impact is reverberating among centrists in the Democratic Party...The party’s moderate vote is splintered among several candidates...

This lie being espoused by the media recently is infuriating. There are no "centrists" or "moderates" in the Dem Party. None at all. And that includes about 95% of the media. What is being splintered is the vote between an open "democratic socialist" (really communist), a billionaire opportunist, and the rest of the field who hide who they really are just to try to win votes.

Yes and No.

I tend to agree with you, because look at where the Democrats are today politically.

I laugh at the television when I hear these pundits utter the term "Democrat Moderates."

There are no moderates in the Democrat party any longer. No radical ideology, is too far left. No policy is too evil, to include murdering infants while in or out of the womb, the lie that men can become women and vice versa, the horrific child abuse and mutilation of encouraging and allowing emotionally fractured children to become "transgendered", the suppression of free speech in the most fascist ways imaginable, and on and on.

Yes indeed....Unfortunately the TV networks/press still want the old style debates where THEY set the stage and what is talked about, where THEY are as much a part of the debates as the candidates....Trump and Bloomberg are changing those dynamics.

He lies. There are no moderates running.

And if the Dem Party leadership steals the nomination from Bernie, his Stalinist AntiFa goons will riot in Milwaukee and likely elsewhere. Which reminds me, I need to stock up on popcorn.

The media worked with the Dems in moving the goalposts; a “moderate” now supports abortion-on-demand, “gay marriage”, increased taxes, and open borders. A leftist supports racial reparations and forgiving student loans...and those are the only positions I can think of that wouldn’t get lumped with “moderate” today.

Warren is something of a wild card, as she is not as far left as Sanders but not as centrist as the other four

Warren is the perfect politician.

You cannot pin her to the wall and if you did she would lie about it.

Yep, perfect

We can laugh at them all we want, but if we don’t show up in November, one of them could end up being our next president.

“Stoddard told the panel that nominating a “Socialist” was going to devastate the Democrats, and that the party would not recover “for decades.”

This infuriated another female panel member, and she “corrected” that Sanders is a “Democrat Socialist”, to which Stoddard replied: “Whatever” and said it made no difference (word games).

This further infuriated the female panel member and other nut jobs on the panel.”

Saw the shorter clip and it was awesome. Can’t wait for the party to start: full out Civil War, Bolsheviks vs. the Mensheviks.

I don’t believe Biden was done in by Bloomberg - he was fading long before Bloomberg started his heavy advertising. What did him in were the gaffes and Pelosi’s stupid plot to get rid of Trump by way of Ukraine. That did nothing to Trump but absolutely destroyed Biden and his son.

If they really want to stop him they’ll have to treat him like a Republican, and paint him as a bigot, racist, homophobe and anti-woman. It shouldn’t be too hard; it’s what they habitually do.

I can’t think of a group of people who deserve to be made to suffer anxiety and more, than the members of the demoncrat party. I can only hope that the media shares all the angst and worry and agita and sleepless nights.

SMALL PRICE TO PAY FOR THE UPHEAVAL OF CIVIL BEHAVIOR AND DOWNRIGHT MANIACAL EVIL AGAINST OUR PRESIDENT AND, INDEED, ALL...ALL OF US FOR MORE THAN THREE YEARS.

As a Leftie Sage once said: “ The chickens have come hope to roost!!” BIG TIME.

I don't watch this s*$t on TV. It is sickening enough to read about it here, much less have to watch it and listen to it live on the boob tube. But, it is funny to see the Dims eating Dims in these idiot shows. Dims eating their own. Aborting their own. Pays them back for all they do to those good people on our side. Serves them right. BloomingIdiotBerg is a lying, crap faced, former so-called Republican RINO, who screams gun control, but has his gated, fenced, ARMED ARMY, protecting him, but we are left to the mercy of the so called police to protect us.

By the way, I called our local sheriff's office and asked how long would I expect to have to wait before they showed up if I had to call them in an emergency, say a home invasion. He said, that UNLESS a car was actually out in our area, IF they had to dispatch one from the home office, I could expect to wait at least 30 minutes!!! before they arrived. So, I said: "So, I am okay to blast away to protect myself and my wife, right??" He said: "Yes sir, do what you have to do to protect yourself. IF, IF, you believe you are in danger to severe injury or loss of life, you defend yourself." I said: "Thanks, I will do just that." So, we are armed, locked and loaded. We both know how to shoot. I ran weapons qualifications ranges in the service and have taught my wife how to blast away also. The girl was a natural. She aims for center mass and blasts away. She shoots/blasts the naval out of the targets!!! When I leave the house, going somewhere, she has her pistol right with her in the event of a break-in. We have had several in our area in the past few months and last year. So, everyone is prepared to protect their-selves.

Sadly, our local sheriff's deputies are understaffed, and probably overworked as they are rarely out patrolling. You see them at all the schools, guarding the kids all day. I cannot remember the last time I saw a deputy pull some driver over for traffic stops. Even the local cops are not out doing traffic control. Don't know where the city cops are, donut shops I guess, but not out patrolling, that is for sure. SO - BE PREPARED, BE AWARE OF YOUR SUITUATION, PROTECT YOURSELF AND YOUR FAMILY!! Be ARMED FOLKS!! LOCK AND LOADED!!!

Chaos... panic...

Gee; that’s a shame. Maybe we should help them, you know, “reach across the aisle”...

Nah. On second thought, Let’em choke.

Yea, getting shalacked in his first national appearance was a part of the plan...He can recover from it sure, because he can spend without care but that doesn’t mean he’s a political mastermind. Every media outlet was ready to declare him the only one who can beat Trump if he only did a decent job. So his plan, under that scenario, was to have a sub par performance? It’s not that he answered incorrectly or looked mean. From what I saw he just accepted all the criticism as valid and that’s just weak.

Apparently the queer supports reparations, not to mention packing the supreme Court and abolishing the electoral college and he is considered moderate. Sheesh
