While some saw him on the short list for a Romney cabinet post, depending on outcomes and day-to-day likelihoods, it appears Vin Webber may have found the guy a more promising opportunity.

TomJoe - Joe, arm around his most beloved SUPERDELEGATE

An abiding insult to progressives happened in 2016 when the two most unpopular candidates of all time were offered the public by the two stranglehold parties. NEVER FORGET. END MONEY RUNNING POLITICS. END SUPERDELEGATES. REFORM THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY BY MAKING IT, OF ALL THINGS, DEMOCRATIC. Try clicking the image, to see double-speak from an "unpledged delegate" claiming neutrality. If the double-speak and the image (and Davos) fail to remind you of the George Carlin "big club" online video, it should. And yet, fight it anyway, because you are alive and upset, (if you are either).

Rename the "Democratic Party" the "Superdelegate Party," unless and until ...

Sell 'em Prosperity Gospel and feed 'em beans. Some never catch on.

What is Prosperity Gospel? It is: Channeling the mind of a brick into GOP and related dogma. Read this Minnesota story. Click the image to read its fine print. (image source: Bluestem Prairie) The image shows a part of the "mind" of a 30 yr. and still-going Prosperity Gospel faithful attendee. A Dev Crabgrass post fleshes things out. Islamaphobia is but one dimension of a larger "GOP base" stupidity. Stupidity you can bank on. HINT: Follow links in items linked here. Questions will get answered. And --- There's more -

DINO NEWS: Democrats in Name Only; they exist as a problem.

a DINO with an up-top money slot

This link. Al Franken in the linked WashTimes item is quoted:
“There are a lot of Minnesotans who are Franken-Trump voters. You have to go and talk to them, and you have to listen. That’s what we need to do. We need to listen.”
Al knows the score better. Al knows Sanders-Franken voter numbers dwarf that Trump-Franken segment, as to where Al needs to pay most attention, "to listen."

Al, in no uncertain terms, should be telling Tom Perez and the beltway money-bunnies of a new fresh smell in the air. Recognizing (in kind wording) one DINO foundation-family's drift, now, into irrelevancy is far from admitting what's relevant and moving full speed to the Bernie side of the force.

Dinosaurs, DINO ways and means, must and will be extinct (can you say "Primary Joe Manchin and Clair McCaskill"). As Al in the item says; listen. Hear Bernie sounding like a giant asteroid strike upon a DINO status quo. Indeed, primary the poster DINO-bunny of artful misdirection and status quo actions, Cory Booker. Gain attention from that, successful or not. Ideally, send Cory to work with Eric Cantor on Wall Street, where his heart is.

Rob Quist tried. He and his family, gaining public attention, have shown well. May they prosper.

Montana seems a good state that voted wrongly. From outside of Montana Quist's virtues include being an artist, rebel, populist progressive, and free spirit. Naming their son Guthrie is fine, and at a guess a sense of western history touched daughter Halliday's naming - the Halliday windmill - but perhaps not and the name is based on a kinship genealogy. Roots in Montana with promise for a nation, money pumped from outside did in the candidacy despite grassroots money to make it a fight. We must fight forward from this battle toward winning an anti-plutocrat modern New Deal war.

What has a meandering digression got to do with the job of legislating good law?

A link.

Perhaps a context is needed. Try this, an actual Minnesota House floor discussion of an anti tax-haven bill proposed by DFL legislators. My Rep., Abigale Whelan, (R), who still sits in the legislature is featured. She will not seek reelection. Gratitude exists over that.

Is it a surprise that after that digression she voted with the Republican leadership? To kill the bill?

Is there sense to Jesus taking the weight of reasonable performance of duty off the shoulders of Rep. Whelan?

250,000 views of that YouTube item is more than folks living in the district, suggesting a larger public has its answer.

Speech transcript online. An opportunity among a friendly Wellsley crowd, without mentioning names, to dump on Trump via an analogy to Nixon "impeachment."

Two questions: First what was the speaker fee? (Goldman level, or adjusted?) Second, given how Ms. Clinton reacted to election results the day after, why in the world is she not forming an, "I Won The Popular Vote he Had More Electors So Let's Amend the Constitution Together," PAC instead of some such "Still Relevant Together" thing in cahoots with Howard Dean? (Such and amendment would be relevant.)
