Levi Sanders could cost us this seat.

This will be a shoe-in and help the Democrats focus their resources on more competitive states instead of worrying about losing it to a much less well known or popular candidate.

Trump won this district by 2%. It's also not helpful that Levi Sanders has been attacking people like Elizabeth Edwards.

you mean Elizabeth Warren..

Link to tweet

She is my Senator, Cha. We are from New England as well. Not good to attack the Senior Senator from Massachusetts, not a good way to start.

no way to start a campaign.. retweeting an Attack on a sitting Democratic Senator from Mass. It shows no class at all.

Right.. and now Sen Warren is the Senior Senator from your great state of Massachusetts!

She is a popular Senator. This is not how we as Democrats should be. We need to work together as one.

GOTV 2018

Dems 2018 and beyond.

attacking her via his re-tweet?!

Not very smart. Wonder if he'll be held accountable for that in the primary?

Yes GOTV for TEAM DEMS!:dem:

you want to represent.

Mahalo!!!

want to represent, and don't attack Democratic Senators, who are up for re-election, by retweeting some insult that basically says Sen Warren is worse than trump.

What's his game plan with that?

Not cool bro.

Mahalo!!

In California for instance.

More than 28,000 turned out on the sunny spring day to see the Vermont senator who grew up in Flatbush, Brooklyn, according to Doug Lehman, who produced the event with 42 Inc."

According to Michael Lewellen, vice president of corporate communications for the arena, there were over 19,000 people in the arena and an estimated 9,000 people who lined up outside but were unable to get in. Lewellen said a total of 28,000 people tried to attend the event."

outside of Vermont and New Hampshire.

The poster says other than Vermont, the place where the Sanders name has the most popularity is New Hampshire and so Levi Sanders would be a shoo in for the seat. I think they would agree with you that Sanders is popular.

What are his qualifications?

...

If you listen you can hear the teeth gnashing.

Nowhere have I seen him being listed as a Democrat, not even on his website. Strange.

All your link says is that the only difference between them is he is a vegetarian.

I read seven different links and his own web site never mentioned party affiliation, that is strange. I appreciate the link, diva.

Though it also shows the challenges he faces. Not being from the district is one. Also: From Your Link. He is late into the race...and

It's literally one page at this point.

That is not looking like a good start. Actually, a couple were just offensive that no one deserves, but wow!

He stumped a few times for Governor Murphy.

She too is running and incorporating her step fathers platform.

Mayor I believe, again as an Independent if I have my facts straight.

Hmmm.

I actually watched that series and Dallas....after that I quit TV!

OT... I know...sorry Sid. The fight scenes between Alexis and Crystal were hilarious.

I lived in the district.

They don't seem to be a "rightie" source.

There is a small cadre here who have a very Pavlonian-esque response to hearing the name "Sanders." It's eerily similar to that of many of those on the Right when they here the name "Clinton." They can be counted on to swarm these threads and show a consistent and predictable response. Easily manipulated.

But I'd lay dollars to doughnuts that I could name which posters here had no clue whatsoever about that article or his positions before they posted in this thread.

set of standards for elected Democrats and another set of standards for yourself, that is hypocrisy.

I see them around all the time when the names Clinton and Kennedy are mentioned.

I wonder if there are other similarities that get-a-pass. (I'll be watching closely to see.)

Mark MacKenzie (D) - State Rep., Ex-State AFL-CIO President & Retired Firefighter
Deaglan McEachern (D) - Businessman & Son of 4x Gov. Candidate Paul McEachern
Mindi Messmer (D) - State Rep. & Environmental Consultant
Terence O'Rourke (D) - Rochester City Attorney & Iraq War Veteran
Chris Pappas (D) - Executive Councilor & Restaurant Owner
Lincoln Soldati (D) - Ex-Somersworth Mayor, Ex-Strafford County Attorney & Ex-School Board Member
Maura Sullivan (D) - Ex-US Asst Secretary of Veterans Affairs & Iraq War Veteran

He only just announced he's running.

Are there posts in that thread supporting him over his opponents? If so, would you link directly to them, please? I'd rather not read through 146 posts trying to find them.

Chris is a solid Democrat and knows how to work with others to get things done. He’s on the NH Executive Council, which has 5 members, 2 of which are Democrats.

“just when you though you’ve seen it all, there is more from another Clinton” Regarding Chelsea Clinton and her activism, not sure what he meant by that.

The Houston paper refused to endorse a son of a friend because the candidate did not live in the district
