(11:48 AM) | Adam Kotsko:
A Quick Review
The top three Democratic candidates for president this year were as follows:- A white guy who really wanted to stick it to the rich, was regarded as a "phony" -- and was cheating on his cancer-afflicted wife
- A woman who is regarded as being essentially the devil by a substantial portion of the population
- A black guy whose middle name is "Hussein" and last name is one letter off from "Osama," whose father was an atheist, former Muslim, and non-citizen, and who attended a church headed by a Scary Black Preacher
I voted for option #1 in the primaries, though it's now clear to me that an openly left-wing populist candidate would've been absolutely destroyed by corporate power even if he wasn't cheating on his cancer-afflicted wife. All things considered, I think option #3 really was the best way to go.
