It's not that I can't talk about candidates that are not in my district (that's you being dishonest), it's just that I know the candidates in my District much better and was hoping fskimospy could use candidates I'm very familiar with as an example. I see that these little 'nuances' are hard for you to understand.

whoa, hey, whoah man, I don't think you can say that since I don't live in St. Louis.

No you just have decades of conservative trained goalpost shifting making it impossible to engage in a meaningful conversation with you.

Who is your representative?

I've been mired in an attempt to establish a basis for honest discussion...sorry if that somehow bothers you. But it doesn't surprise me one bit if you would perceive my efforts as goalpost shifting. Nor does it surprise me that you would do so without giving any rational explanation to support such a perception.

Governor: Mike Parson (was Eric Greitens)
Senator: Claire McCaskill
House Representative: Ann Wagner

Pretty sure you have multiple senators but anyway I just looked into Ann Wagner and she's a real piece of work.

In the most recent congress according to wiki her two most significant actions were to sponsor an act that removes the requirement that financial advisers act in their clients' best interest and she voted for the Republican health care bill. Related to this thread, she apparently also avoids her constituents like the plague, haha.

With those things in mind, would you vote for her opponent?

Perhaps...it depends on the opponent and what their warts look like.

So you said you could only speak about your district and now you won't speak about your district? Come on...

How about Devin Nunes as opposed to Ocasio-Cortez? Is there anything you'll give an answer on for accountability?

I'll be interested in seeing her future town hall meetings as I expect most will be press accessable.

You act as if the alternative choice is automatically assumed to be pristine. The real world doesn't work that way.

In 2016 I didn't vote for Trump and I voted for Chris Koster (D) for Governor instead of Eric Greitens (R). Where are you trying to go with this?

The only groups making her the "face" of the Democrats are right side fringe groups that have some sort of twisted obsession with her.


Bruh. She became a rock star to the media, even the article in the OP stated that she has given lots of national interviews etc. Fundraising for her campaign in CA. Head of the DNC says shes the new face of the party.

Damned alt-right and their twisted obsessions I tell ya....

Sure Vicky. With your IQ you'd fit in nicely with the Jade Helm and FEMA camp folks. I'm sure they'd be happy to have you.
How odd you see it that way. I figured Vic to be smart but I've no real idea how smart other than way smarter than me. I find him to be exceptionally balanced in his insights to the authoritarian mind, both on the left and the right. A conversation with him, in my opinion, is a learning event. Of course that could just be the result of staying up late at night to study in my formative years, where I was learned to not make so many logical and grammatical mistakes to got my writing ate up by red marks.

Did you ever think that having a not so astounding IQ doesn't make you a bad person and that you can't really insult people by calling them stupid who don't identify with how smart they are as a way to feel superior to others? You have some room for personal development, I think, but telling you that probably just makes you feel bad. Maybe you brought that to the table yourself. Get a dog. It will see the god within you.

I didn't say it did. My original question was if you were going to hold Republicans accountable for their extreme misconduct but you won't answer.

Like usual he comes in here, dodges the question, makes himself look like an idiot and then decides to throw in a "but I didnt vote Trump" without even being asked whether he did. At this point why even bother with these dishonest, uneducated leeches? Theyre too stupid to think for themselves and are only a mouth piece for Fox's propaganda just as you've nicely shown in this and a few other threads.

At this point maybe it doesn't matter if you don't or you do. Was it the parable of the sower that talks about the kind of ground on which seeds may fall?

You must have me confused with someone else. My name isn't Tom Perez.

You seem to be confused who the party is, the voters or Tom Perez.

As said in the other AOC thread, it's the voters who decide the "face" of the party. That's what Nov is for.

It could very well be Doug Jones and Connor Lamb. They certainly have been winning more.

You conservatives crushing on her, nor Tom Perez, don't get to decide.

I think it's stupid the conservatives are rushing to anoint her the face of the party based upon some hype and one man's comment. If she was the face of the party Bernie would have won the nomination and we wouldn't have Trump but that's another story.

Also stupid, her banning the press from an event, even if it's just one.
