Populist Reform of the Democratic Party

to me he seems to be the best combination of tested and proven on a wide range of subjects of serious concern and the person with the most scalable to win a national election while staying true.

What other big electoral vote swing state liberals do we have? Who else is it that walks the walk louder than talking the talk and then sells it to true purple?

I'll gladly support Bernie, he is cut from a similar cloth and is good as we have, I'm just saying Ohio is more meaningful in my calculations than Vermont in being able to do it right successfully.

Warren, I really like so far and she is strong in a critical area of issues to me but I'm unclear where she stands on some others and hasn't built up a trail of evidence that makes me sure as I can be of where a politician stands on a full range of concerns over some time so those positions are tested and reaffirmed as where one really stands after Obama. Rising fast and deservedly so but I am very wary of new car smell, I'm wanting something broke in and tested in broad range of policy.

I'd support her over the Turd Way but "I'm not so sure about it" so to speak. Nothing to do with her at all, she seems very genuine it is the situation, circumstances, and a big piece of what I've taken away from the past several years is more record the more truth of beliefs and purposes are tested.
Small sample size can mislead in either direction.

I'm even more wary but optimistic with trepidation on O'Malley, my gut is screaming stalking horse slash Trojan Horse though I cannot support that vibe I'm getting with any evidence enough to say confirmed and I'd honestly prefer not believe.

Problem is after that the bench really thin in the Senate (there are more good ones but i speak generally) and among governors, most of the trustworthy are in the House and untested in ability to compete and win big races. My rep I'd love to vote for any office in the land but most Democrats much less the nation could give a fuck about him though I find him on the right side from my point of view about every time and I'm happy to help in his election efforts and worry about how many opportunities I will have to do it.

Maybe around 150 other lucky districts have folks that more or less feel the same way but few if any have any broad traction.
