Cory Booker

The Bad Judgment and Worse Optics of the Far-Left

It appears as if the Greenwald/Sirota Far-Left has anointed Rep. Rush Holt (D-NJ) as its candidate for U.S. Senate — in opposition to Cory Booker. Here’s Holt’s first ad:

I don’t hate Holt, but he’s polling at around eight percent to Booker’s 52 percent and the far-left is lining up with a guaranteed loser, Holt, against a not-as-far-left-but-still-damn-good candidate — a bona fide hero — who has a serious shot at winning. Not only that but Booker would be the only elected African American member of the U.S. Senate, and, perhaps, the second African American president.

Smart move, lefties.

I still consider myself quite liberal in terms of values and policy positions, but I don’t know these people any more.
