Every Pub that isn't in lockstep with the far right MAGAs are no different than dems. I think it becomes hard to differentiate what's going on when you are way out on the edge in either direction.

Of course the centrists are closer to Sanders and Warren than they are to Trump (on most issues). But they're also closer to Trump than Warren and Sanders are. Moderates want the needle pushed away from the warren and sanders fringe and closer to the trump fringe.
Moderates want the needle pushed away from the sanders fringe and closer to the trump fringe than it would be if, say, Warren were elected.
Would the average board moderate have more in common politically with KSUW than with KK or MIR? I mean, yeah, it seems so.
someone should make a graph of the political spectrum plotting various gE posters/presidential candidates/etc

I've said it before and I'll say it again, K-State fans could have beheaded the entire KU team at midcourt, and K-State fans would be celebrating it this morning. They are the ISIS of Big 12 fanbases.

So my journey has taken me to where I should have been in the first place. Warren's support of Ilhan Omar, her unapologetic progressive agenda, and her well stated plan on paying for student loan forgiveness, I'm team Liz and I ain't leaving. I'll probably support the Democratic candidate no matter what unless it's Biden. Trump is winning Iowa in the general anyway, so who cares if I vote green or independent?
