Wait, so the state that is most inviting to the third world is also the one with the most shite & needles in the streets, and where the bubionic plague has perhaps come back, and has the conventions where they boo the politicians that don't promise the most free stuff?

Anyone else putting two and two together, here?

Anyone else realizing that it isn't JUST about votes?

Who's John Delaney?

I know this because I've been watching the Greenville regional all weekend. He's the head baseball coach at Quinnipiac.

Lol

Could be,

But Pol John Delaney is a somewhat reasonable guy from Maryland, former mayor and I think a current or former House member. Running for POTUS with near zero name recognition.

Not nearly as off the charts loon as most of the rest, so of course he’s gonna get booed by the dim base.

He's my former Rep in the U.S. House.

Many of the middle ground candidates had issues. Even Harris got issues there and it is her home state,.

What do you think should happen? Should the dems appease the california fringe, or move back to the middle?

You know, that's actually an interesting question and likely a real conundrum for many of those running.

Cali moved their primary waaaay up, could well be the first of the season (not looking). And, that primary represents some badly lopsided % of the delegates needed to win the nomination.

That, by definition, means the prospective candidate will likely need to stake out their furthest left positions straight from the jump and how well is that going to play in Iowa or New Hampshire and others moving forward?

On the flip side if a supposed "top tier" or poll leader like Creepy Joe or Camala have a relatively poor showing, say 3-4th cause they don't go full 'tard, that could well be a disaster in the press, fund raising, all important Mo etc.

so they'll have to appeal to the anarchist zealots to win that contest, then real quick try to turn around and run back to more center-ground.

Land of Fruits and Nuts represent themselves and that's about it. Maybe NYC or chitcago and other various failing enclaves, but not a lot more.

Is there room for a more "moderate" dim to win Cali? I don't really know, but I suspect the answer is NO.

When they do move to the middle the looney leftist that showed up to Trump rallies will show up in droves to protest at debates, rallies etc. because they are the base and will be allowed into the front door. The MSM is hiding the things that happened at this event, especially some loon that strolled up and took the microphone from Harris. The MSM will have to show what happens at these events. Some of it will be in real time. Going to be very entertaining when the base of the Democrat party is shown to be the Socialists they are.

not free? not pansexual? not open border? Not brown? boo... hiss...

My brother the political reporter in the Bay Area was at that convention the whole time. He said the most impressive people there were Elizabeth Warren (even though she blew off most of the reporters from doing one-on-one interviews), Mayor Pete and Cory Booker (who he admits is a non-factor in the Democratic primaries). He's pretty good friends with Kamala Harris so I think he gives her some benefit of the doubt but even he admits she hasn't been impressive in her speeches.

Bernie Sanders is more moderate to the Californian voters because of what he voted against in the past. Illinois and New York seemed more moderate than California since they hate the mayor that is running for President, and he is giving away free stuff, but put taxes on other things like soft drinks.

Well, you know things have gone off the rails if Bernie is now considered the "moderate" candidate.
