MickParticipant…over moneyed corporate interests inserting themselves into the California Proposition 50 fight.

ParticipantMick. Democrats have voted almost unanimously to limit money in politics over many congressional bills. I detailed that in another thread. Republicans, on the other hand, have blocked these efforts almost unanimously. But Democrats aren’t going to unilaterally disarm.
i would be thrilled to get Soros and any other rich Democratic donors to fuck off. But until Republicans agree to that, as well, then sorry, not sorry.
your outrage should be at all the conservatives who blocked the efforts to get money out of politics. But you dutifully vote for them every cycle and spend your time defending them. So forgive me if I’m not that sympathetic about Soros donating to something you don’t like.
NO MALARKEY

(a) You are incorrect and (b) you have no idea how I vote and (c) Biden/Harris had considerably more billionaires backing them than backed Donald Trump; in fact, by nearly a 2:1 margin. So spare me…Democrats drink deeply at that well.
Face it: the Democrats are owned by Wall Street, Hollywood, Silicon Valley, Big Media, Big Law and Big Academia. And it is well known that Kamala Harris both outraised and outspent Donald Trump. In other words, the Rich Kids and the Cool Kids back Democrats. So spare me.
I will still vote for both Democrats and Republicans as a registered independent since 2004.

MickParticipantBYT, you might appreciate this billionaire’s take. He says that the Democrats only ever call him for money. But one politician called to get his opinion.
Guess which one?

MickParticipantAnd while we’re on that topic, a few more stats:
- 9 out of the 10 richest counties in America voted Democrat across the board.
 - 65% of all Americans making $500k or more vote Democrat.

ParticipantAmen, Mick. It is most commonly the Dems who are the big spenders – and usually by a very large margin. It is only the consistently better policies of conservatives that keep them competitive.
