What is it with you lefties and your purity tests? Ok so now they have to have charisma and not rape and stay awake? Anything else you want to add to your list? Next you'll be expecting them to represent you in congress and fulfill basic campaign promises. Sorry but some of us live in the real world

Sure joe biden has co-signed all of the worst policy along with the republicans and was the chosen figure of the boot on the face of the left, eliminating the idea of compromise while the democrats fully align themselves with the republican party while shielding themselves by saying they don't like trump but! he would be 2% better than trump so

Kerry had no charisma. I remember Clark being particularly charismatic, but he did a scream thing at one of his rallies and that was bad for reasons.

MarcusSA posted:Yeah like this could have been Joe’s time to shine (lol) but he’s literally done not a drat thing to prove he’d do any sort of better job at this poo poo. Remember, a crucial part of Biden's campaign is that attention is actually a negative thing. I think they were trained wrong, as a joke. quote:You can see this really well in media mentions in the top paragraph of stories, as measured by NewsLibrary.com. Four years ago from March 20 to April 20, Trump had about 65% of the mentions between Hillary Clinton and him. This year during the same period, Trump's gotten about 90% of the coverage dedicated to Biden or him. That is, Biden's turned a 2:1 disadvantage into a 9:1 disadvantage.

A personal upside to refusing to support Joe: All of my coworkers are MAGAchuds. They have thus far accepted me as one of their own through years of careful deflection and non-answers when anyone brings up politics. Now though, I can honestly say "Joe Biden can gently caress right off" instead of having to find some way to change the topic to something else.

He was "stately" and "dignified." They thought he'd provide good cover for "you can't criticize a wartime president" I dislike Kerry a lot, but the swiftboat campaign against him still makes me mad whenever I think about it. The dude was a legit version of what politicians sell themselves as when they tell voters they're veterans. He saw, and was in the middle of, some serious poo poo

Patriotic "Support ARE TROOPS" was at a big-time high on account of the Forever War in the Middle East still having that new car smell, so they figured that Kerry being an actual combat veteran/war hero would make him immune to a lot of the negative attack angles that the Republicans would have usually gone for. Of course it was blissfully naive to believe that, as Swiftboating will remind us.

john kerry was a clear answer to the problem of how to run as a perceived dove in a time of extreme hawkishness. he was in a position to criticise warmongering from a position of presumably undeniable personal credibility, had the vietnam-era stripes for both dovish agitation and actual combat experience and he had solid realist/hawk chops from his later political work as a senator the democrats were terrified of looking non-credible in the face of foreign aggression and had identified a subset of voters which, if captured, would let them win - this subset, of course, was suburban educated whites, especially women, who the democrats have been drooling after ever since because they're movable in the midterms and don't cost anything in terms of policy of course, the republicans spent five seconds thinking about how to deal with this and then decided to deny kerry's personal credibility, making that itself a party political issue and completely undermining the entire premise of his candidacy because this is how this poo poo actually works - i've been watching mrs america and this is literally how phyllis schlafly operated back in the seventies. i can forgive the steinem crew not getting this, but the democratic party really ought to have learned by now

imo kerry could have fought back by saying that he saw his friends die and bush is doing it again and making fortunate son his campaign theme song but he instead as we all know flip-flopped on the iraq invasion and ultimately settled on vote for me because i'll fight the war better which one again was some dipshit "compromise" that appeased absolutely nobody and responded to the swift boating by rolling over because the democrats somehow thought that not responding to attacks that were on every tv channel every commercial break would mean people wouldnt believe it Shear Modulus has issued a correction as of 20:05 on May 19, 2020 |
