    There’s more money to be made in primarying progressives than in primarying conservatives.

      True! If the Democratic party apparatus can’t galvanize and find a better candidate, it’s just another sign that they’re beyond fully cooked.

      I wanted something different from “knife fighter” Ken Martin, but either he’s getting the cold shoulder from the old guard, or he’s pandering to them. Come on Ken, be the Brutus/Longinus to Schumer’s (et al.) Caesar.

        The problem is that all the Democratic leadership thinks they’re Caesar and they’re all terrified of getting shanked if they don’t toe the party line.
