I am still undecided. Not sure I’ll ever be very excited by either Bernie or Hillary. I think they will both have serious difficulties being a progressive president given the reality that we have to work with a Congress that is very likely to remain in the hands of Ryan and McConnell.
That said, if the trends of the race continue as they have been over the last couple of weeks, Bernie Sanders is now the Democratic front-runner. And with that designation comes some monumental responsibility.
The main thing to say here is the easy part — if Bernie is our front-runner, we must DEMAND of him that he will not lose this race. A Democrat should win in November given the trends in our politics and our economy. This is a Dem’s race to lose. So Bernie better not lose it.
Especially given the doomsday crazy coming from the likely GOP candidates, Trump and Cruz.
Congratulations Bernie supporters. You’ve now won the front-runner status and are now responsible for winning in November. All I can say as an undecided voter, this is on you now and don’t you dare fuck this up! The only thing at stake is our livable planet. So you better win!
