*Never Warren*...

But, this is how it works, right? We don't dare seek out somebody that these "donors" or the Party don't approve of. Advocating that is bonkers!

I sincerely hope that nobody considers this an endorsement. I still want Oprah

    This is the mistake they always make: you don't have to get your base to vote for you. If someone really is a never-Trumper or "Blue no matter who," then you don't need to get them to vote for you because, shock of all shock, they already will vote for you. Therefore, you need to get people who normally wouldn't vote for you to do so. Trump did that marvelously by appealing to the populist message, through things like jobs, national security, the economy, etc. He didn't have to get those who hated Hilary and the Dems, he had to get those in the middle who would have been on the fence. It is also how Clinton, Bush, and Obama all won, to name the most recent, and it will be how the next one will win too.
