I’m not ecstatic about having a limp after my cancer gets cured - but I am ecstatic about the cancer getting cured.
I’ll raise a glass when that happens - several.

Liked, but I think “remission” is the better phrase here.
Unless very deliberate measures are taken for ongoing treatment, said cancer is liable to come roaring back. Trump is just one tumor. There are plenty of other cells waiting for a chance to metastasize.

Fistbump! I just used the limping, but at least able to walk, analogy to my daughter a half hour ago!
(Great minds think alike; fools seldom differ.)

And to continue the analogy, when cancer comes back, it’s much harder (and often impossible) to treat at that point.

No, I was sent there from an article in the Guardian. Is stpetepolls especially bad?
I tend to go by the ratings on fivethirtyeight.com, where they get a C+. My real problem is the site you linked, which commissioned the poll, is part of Americans For Prosperity, one of the main arms of the Koch brothers.

So legitimate but not super accurate. I don’t care who pays their wages.

Sorry - valid concerns about some Sanders supporters are valid concerns. Valid concerns about these persons responses are also valid concerns.
One doesn’t excuse the other.

As I said in another thread:
-
Much (but not all) of what is characterised by bluecheck media figures and DNC operatives as “abuse” is actually working class people accurately calling them out on their dishonesty and corruption. Criticism ≠ abuse.
-
The centrists on Twitter have been providing an absolute firehose of racist/sexist/classist abuse for years. Receipts available if required.
-
Are some of the millions of people who support Bernie obnoxious arseholes? Of course. It’s a statistical inevitability.
But the point here is not the behaviour of anonymous douchebags on Twitter. The point is the systematic and deliberate one-sided slanting of the way in which this issue is presented in the corporate media.
All candidates have obnoxious supporters. Only one candidate is constantly attacked for it.

No - it’s not the media or anonymous douchebags on Twitter who are raising these concerns- it’s women, people of color and trans folks right here.
Stop gaslighting us if you want our votes.

Anyone who thinks that Biden has a snowflake’s chance in hell of defeating Trump in the general election.
