I'm old enough to remember McGovern - whom the kids also adored and then didn't show up for in the general. I fear the same would happen if Bernie were the nominee. If kids in the 70's had short attention spans, kids today have attention spans that are of insufficient duration to measure.

So, if I think Biden is a disaster and fear the kids won't show up for Bernie, who is my candidate? TBH, I'm beginning to believe it doesn't matter. The post-Clinton, post-Obama "New Democrats" have destroyed the Democratic Party. And as a genuine Democrat once observed, "If you run a Republican against a Republican, a Republican will win every time." Game, set, match. We're finished.
