That is the lie from the MSM……that this country is a center left or center right country…..I disagree and I have written about this lie extensively….

And then my favorite lie from the MSM….”electability”……
https://lobotero.com/2019/07/16/electability-the-lie-that-keeps-on-giving/
I bring all this up because we are in the throes of another election to pick a Dem nominee then the president and the media is doing all they can to elect Joe Biden….they give a whiff of not being biased by focusing on the front runners but with caveats…..
The media has its darling, Joe Biden, a ‘moderate’ that is in the same vane that lost twice and yet they are embracing and pushing a return to the past…..
Clinton lost in 2016 mainly because she ran a poor campaign. In retrospect, though, in view of all the nefarious things she stood for and all the political currents she embodied, it was bound to be tough going for her even with an opponent as preposterous as the one she had.
Democrats ought to take that lesson to heart. But Democrats will be Democrats and so many of them are hellbent instead on doing just the opposite.
Their moderation has become so extreme that Clinton, along with some of her unreconstructed supporters, have lately been floating feelers about her running again. Seriously!
Worse by far – not just because it is far more likely to happen — leading Democrats and their toadies on the cable news networks are still pushing the idea that only Joe Biden, the doddering dufus himself, can guarantee a Trump defeat.
First Lose All the Moderates
Personally I do not think that centrists/moderates/ whatever we want to call the spineless in the party will not win the White House in 2020……
I keep hearing that the Democratic primary is coming down to someone who’s “electable” versus someone who has “ideas.”
This is pure nonsense. Beating Donald Trump requires getting out the vote. And in order to get people to turn out and vote, a presidential candidate has to be inspiring. Which means big ideas, a vision of an America that could become a reality if we all got behind it, a sense of where we need to be heading.
Don’t be fooled. This primary is not a contest between someone who’s electable and someone who has big ideas. Big ideas are essential in order to be electable.
The Mainstream media is picking the candidate for the public and so far they are winning the hearts and minds of the voter for Joe Biden…..
I refuse to let them do this to me….how about you?
Be Smart!
Learn Stuff!
VOTE!

“Lego Ergo Scribo”
MSM darling is Biden ? A very interesting perspective. I thought they worshipped and promoted Bernie, Pocahontas and that mayor fellow. They characterize Biden as feeble and slow witted.
Warren is a rich candidate….Bernie has never been the darling of regular media…..they want Biden because nothing will change …Pete is just too wishy washy…..but then he should do well in the early states. chuq
It was always going to be Biden or Warren, I suspect. They probably don’t want to run another woman against Trump, so I will be surprised if Warren is nominated.
Best wishes, Pete.
Pete is filling a niche in the center as well…depends on how he does in the early primaries….chuq
Oh leave the poor MSM alone so they can do their thing. After all, the MSM is the only voice the Left Wingers have in this country and they are the only ones with any access to it … so it is little wonder to me that the platform is as filled with lies as it’s biggest patronage.
The MSM s no more left wing than corporate owned does not make left politics attractive that is why they push a centrist chuq
Liars to the core.
They do not lie…they misspeak….chuq
Yes, “Misspeak,” I like that better. Thank you.
To me a lie is a lie….we can call it whatever but it is still a lie….chuq
Glad to see you are up and about– Hope all is well.
Everything is good here…hope with you as well…I will be visiting soon….chuq
