Why the hell is Tulsi still in the race?

Well if that happens it would virtually guarantee that Trump gets reelected this November, and the Dems would lose the House and and the Senate as well.

They wouldn't lose as bad with Hillary as they would with Bernie. Bernie appeals to a small subset within the subset of progressive voters. The rest of the field is diluted which makes Bernie look bigger than he really is. If this becomes a choice between capitalism vs socialism, the result will be an overwhelming victory for capitalism.
 
Free exposure and being that one Democrat that chuds like can be a very profitable niche.

Except Bernie does better with independents and even conservatives than any other Democrat in the race. So there goes that right-wing talking point.
 
A Tulsi thread divulges into disingenuous Jack nonsense? That was completely unexpected.

Yes, but any gains he gets there is more than eclipsed by the corporate DNC establishment who will not vote for their business interests to be destroyed.

Yes, but if she get's her clock cleaned in all 50 states it could destroy her political career and ruin her chances of ever running for President ever again. Her best bet is to drop out right now, endorse Bernie, and try to position herself to become a member of Bernie's cabinet. That way she can make a bigger name for herself and run again in a future election.

Tedy Kennedy ran 3 or 4 times for the nomination and was probably more popular later in his political career.
 
Almost 16 years and over 70,000 posts dedicated to trolling the off topic sections of an MMA forum. What a guy.

And that's further twisting. What's so hard about just honestly addressing points that people really make?

Not that Id vite for her, but is this really a point?

Gabbard would probably be better than Trump, but I think her ethical issues and lack of intelligence, education and experience would make her a really bad president. Also, with the stench of Russia over Trump, it would make no sense to have another candidate compromised by Russian influence.
​
Skipping the obvious; that you don't like her education, you claim that she's compromised by Russia with absolutely zero evidence.
 
I think she is just staying in until Super Tuesday just to say she stayed until the end and will bow out. The same question could be asked of Steyer, Klobuchar and others. At this point in the past, it was down to Obama vs. Hillary and Bernie vs. Hillary.

I'm pretty sure Ted Kennedy only ran once, but even if that is the case, that was decades ago before the Internet existed and people couldn't keep track of this shit. We are living in a completely different political era now.

Okay, but again that would all but guarantee that the Dems would get whipped out on Election day.

Still nothing like traitor, but more than that, not every discussion is about every other discussion. "I think Matt Chapman is the best defensive third baseman in the AL." "But you oppose the death penalty!" "WTF? I'm talking about Chapman's defense." "But, look, I just found you saying that the death penalty is bad!" That's how crazy this discussion is.

Well, Clinton said that Gabbard was being groomed by Republicans to run third party and that she's a favorite of Russia, both of which appear to be true statements.

I’ve got a bet against @PolishHeadlock2 about Tulsi running 3rd party (me against, him for). Would you like to hop in as well since you think it appears to be true? I’d gladly go double or nothing from my end.

For the record I believe that everyone besides Bernie should drop out because Bernie won 3 states in a row, the most recent of which he won in a landslide, and not only is Bernie poised to win South Carolina but he is most likely going to dominate on Super Tuesday. The race is all but over at this point. I'm just picking on Tulsi because has the misfortune of getting the least amount of votes in all 3 states.
