    4th Most Powerful Democratic Lost Primary To A Socialist Liberal Waitress

    It is one of the most incredible upsets we have seen in years, Crowley was going to be speaker of the house eventually and a nobody ever got close to this guy in an election.

    Give this Latino creditalthough this is not a good sign for Dems on the national level.

    Socialist candidates can never win big time elections YET.


    She stood for FREE everything..lol

    What is sad is eventually we will see a socialist President and USA is real fukked forever..MASSIVE 50% TAX RATES..glad I am older...the lazy America is coming

    I am glad she won actually, good woman

    Crowley made a massive mistake being way too anti trump

    Mid Terms Reps will do very well, Socialists cannot get anything done although have some good views but many just too far out there.

    Coach why is this thread touting socialist wins still in Player's Talk when my thread about the free market getting legalized in bible-belt, conservative Oklahoma got "salooned" to the dead politics subforum where only Brooks hangs out?

    JJ I think you need to more worried about your fellow mods shifting to the far left before worrying about the United States as a whole doing the same...

    Your ignorance has no bounds. This country spends $800 Billion a year+ on "defense", Corporations and Billionaires pay nowhere near what they should in taxes. If we cut back military spending (we aren't officially at war with anyone, these regime change wars we participate in are of our own doing) and have Corporations and Billionaires pay their fair share, start a jobs program tied to rebuilding our infrastructure the tax rates for the vast majority of us would stay fairly stable. If single payer healthcare was initiated it would result in a tax increase but that increase would be considerably less than the savings you would gain from not having to pay premiums to insurance companies (who are making insane amounts of money right now).

    “Defense”: what a terrible place to spend money right? Your directly or indirectly employing literally millions of people in jobs that range from low tech manufacturing to literally cutting edge technology. All while keeping America and Americans safe.

    Your right though. Let’s go to single payer system that rewards doctors for quantity not quality. Seems like a much better use of our money. That way, when dictatorships that don’t give two hairy rats ashes about your quality of life come and take over the world at least we can say we have cheaper healthcare.

    You are a paranoid twat, we spend more on military than the next 10 countries combined. Who the penetrate is going to take us over if we only spend $400 Billion a year on wars ? Damn right single payer would be of great benefit to this country why the penetrate should we enrich insurance companies ? We spend twice as much as countries with single payer healthcare and have much worse health outcomes. Insurance companies are leeches on society. We have a wannabe dictator right now and you are too stupid to see it.

    I got a better idea... you buy your insurance and I'll buy mine. Like the way it was before premiums rose 600%.

    Lets see, the last time this was done.

    Medicare, the GI Bill, Federal Jobs program. Following the Great Depression & WWII. What happened? The greatest economic growth in the history of the country & the US became a super power. What could go wrong? You tell me.

    Not that bog of deal in terms of election result...

    District was Gerrymandered, its minority majority...

    However, this shows that Lefties know nothing of politics, Crowley was a fundraising machine for all Democrats. They just retired one of their cash cows and have noone ro blame but themselves.

    Nixon says Crowley shock shows she has path to Albany

    Underdog gubernatorial hopeful Cynthia Nixon moved Tuesday to quickly capitalize on the shocking defeat of Queens Democratic power broker Rep. Joe Crowley, claiming it showed that voters were open to rejecting incumbents across the board.She had allied herself with Alexandria *Ocasio-Cortez, the victorious 28-year-old political newcomer, on Monday when she endorsed the then-seemingly long-shot bid to replace Crowley.

    https://nypost.com/2018/06/27/nixon-...ath-to-albany/

    “This is a victory for the people over the powerful, for the grass roots over the establishment, for progressive Democrats over corporate Democrats,” Nixon said in a statement. “This is what happens when you give people a choice. They show up and they reject the status quo.”

    I always found it hillarious that the party vastly supported on this forum is vehemently and rabidly anti gambling.

    I think the forum is more libertarian than anything else.

    GOP sans its religious wing is not anti gambling in general, but they are for regulating vice....and the prevailing thought is that it's not possible to effectively regulate gambling without having a quasi casino pop up on every corner....the profits of which are minimal to the State, the costs to protect overwhelming.

    This

    Also chaoz seems to be referring trump supporters on here who aren’t necessarily staunch republicans and Trump is hardly against gambling.

    It it is a fair point that some republicans on here should realize that party fights legalized sports betting but it doesn’t make it less hilarious that socialist fans are on a sports forum

    Please define socialist for us. I bet you or most of the forum can't do it.

    I bet you can't even define capitalism.
