Anyways the DNC Chair is not a very important role & Ellison should stay in Congress & not accept the stupid offer. Strengthen the strong progressive wing.

The DNC is full of lobbyists, consultants & identity politics people but Ellison got strong support from Senators, Congressmen, Party Chairs, Vice-Chairs so we should be happy. Either way the Bernie wing is taking over, these centrists will shut up & do as they are told instead of turning the party of FDR & JBJ into a pile of junk.

Come Biden or Gillibrand or Booker, if we can get Bernie to go 1 vs 1, everyone of these clueless people will easily lose!

Bernie Bros -sour grapes and sore losers.

Goodbye punk.  Keep insulting people.  It will surely help you win elections.  Pathetic.

Oh, I'm so sorry, did you Bernie Bros somehow feel entitled to this position?

Drop the namecalling, Islamaphobe.

Berniecrats in this thread:

"Wah, wah, the candidate I liked more 'cause muh tone and symbols lost the fundraising and electoral strategizing role to someone I don't like cause muh neolibrals."

GMAFB

Electoral strategizing is, in fact, the main thing that there's reason to believe Perez will be non-trivially worse at.

Speaking as someone who REALLY likes Ellison and has met him multiple times, I don't know why he would be considered a master at electoral strategizing. Because he actually holds elected office? Getting an elected in a safe seat repeatedly is the same experience as DWS.

If you wanted some sort of campaign beast to be DNC Chair, then it should've been someone like...oh whoever ran the campaign for that Governor of Louisiana that Moderate Heroes here love to jack off over or some Nevada Democratic Party official very close to Harry Reid*. But it's not even really an electoral strategist position either.

*Actually that WOULD be a great candidate.

Dude, I'm shtposting.  But the word "Berniebro" needs to be dropped from people's vocabulary.  It's rooted in the worst type of SJW identity politics and it's dismissive to the women who supported and still passionately support Sanders.

The only people who I still see using it regularly are Tulsibots who believe all Sanders supporters are mindless robots who'll vote for anyone who endorsed him and ignore all other issues in the 2020 primary.

Why would Sanders haters support Tulsi? Huh  I mostly see the word thrown around by people who have #ImStillWithHer on their Twitter pages and write 20 tweets a day bashing Sanders and Ellison.  They are literally still living in 2016.

I have a friend from undergrad who works at the Wisconsin Democratic Party and she's super pumped that Jason Rae won.

They called Obama a communist. Just because some idiots think that some neoliberal TPP supporter is somehow left wing doesn't make it so.

Honestly, the Democratic Party is better off without you.  Not without Berniecrats, they are and will remain a major part of the coalition. But they're certainly better off without you specifically.

I don't think that about you, even if I find you to be a bit annoying at times.  Jfern didn't bother me much until this thread, but he's just snapped and now I find myself wondering if he was always like this or what.

Haven't you joined the California Green Party yet?  With the California GOP as insignificant as the U.K. Labour Party has become under Jeremy Corbyn, it may become the only opposition party in the state.  They could use zealots like you.  We certainly can do without you.

hard to stomach such intra-party "hate"...not cause i somehow detest hard debate or am a peace dove but cause it's the worst way to spent your own mental ressources in hard times.

Just like Hillary's brilliant campaign of winning without progressives or the white working class? How'd that work out?
