It’s an earthquake to have Bernie Sanders’s candidate defeat Gretchen Whitmer’s candidate in Michigan. But the real goal is to keep Donald Trump’s candidate from winning this seat.
Sanders appeared to be referring to a YouGov survey that found that 24 percent of those who voted for Clinton during the 2008 primary backed McCain over Democratic nominee Obama in the general election.
Fully 12 percent of people who voted for Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., in the 2016 Democratic presidential primaries voted for President Trump in the general election. That is according to the data from the Cooperative Congressional Election Study
So I’m tracking HRC said Bernie (the progressive) didn’t bring his supporters around in '16 like she did for Obama in '08.
The second link won’t load.
It doesn’t surprise me they didn’t fall in line I didn’t at that time either.
I’m being argumentative here for a couple reasons, I just don’t think MI dems can push him over the line since he’s not doing all that well in the places he needs to do well like metro Detroit, so he needs places like Kalamazoo and Grand Rapids. Both of those cities will go his way but the counties those cities reside in might not which is a problem.
Second I enjoy trolling onlime progressives for their holier than thou because they seem to think that the party needs to adopt all of their views even if a generic democrat vote with the party a vast majority of the time.
We can argue that the votes they don’t follow party line are the important votes, my argument is they did nothing to try to earn that vote just expected it to happen.
In the end the party is endorsing his run so it seems there’s not too much to complain about.
second, fuck right off. you’re nothing but disingenuous snark and attacking the very people who overwhelmingly come out every time. the problem is NOT progressives.

She didn’t bring her supporters around for '08. Remember PUMA’s? Pepperidge farms remembers.
A higher percentage of Bernie voters voted for Clinton in 2016 than Clinton voters voted for Obama in 2008.
You’re literally just making shit up here completely to justify your position.
first off, on lime?

I enjoy mocking on lime chuds like you.
