Believe me, I'm as disappointed as anyone. I am so over this demographic and their hold on political power. They just keep fucking over Gen X, and it never ends.
Although, I'm sure you'd have had a powerfully snarky message no matter who they decided to fall in behind.
Someone on my feed was all pissed that the DNC wasn't letting the same thing happen to them that happened with trump. Like why would the D's want that mess? Makes sense to pragmatically look at the numbers and move forward from there.
Sanders isn't a D. Should he take the nomination I'll support him, but....then again, that's how I feel about Biden too.
One of the pod's that I was listening to this morning said that Sanders can beat trump, but that he will need more young people to come out than came out for Obama, and Biden can beat trump if more moderates and independents come out than came out for Obama. Which I thought was interesting. They both need elements that play to their strengths, but more, because they have weaknesses.
Which brings me to Obama, who I'm sure will come out for Biden and bring a big kick in the pants should he move forward as the nominee. I'm kind of looking forward to the General just for the ads.
