Well that's just about the way the conversation between Chris Matthews and Debbie Wassermann Schultz went on Matthews TV show the other day.
Chris Matthews had Debbie Wassermann Schultz, Democratic National Committee Leader as a guest.

Chris Matthews asked Debbie Wassermann Schultz to explain the difference between a socialist and a Democrat. Schultz's head exploded over this question as Matthews kept insisting that she explain the difference . All he got was well its Democrat against Republican

However given the hard pull to the left by liberals Matthews question had substance and as Bernie Sanders continues on his march to the White House
Hillary Clinton pulls harder and harder to the left. The multi-millionaire first woman to be elected continues the class war against the rich. She will continue and enlarge the income redistribution scheme of the Obama Administration as government continues to grow this economy. She will fix the income disparity between the CEO's and clerks in a company by applying some sort of parity scheme.

Doesn't this all sound like socialism to you?

THAT is certainly the direction that the Democratic party has been sprinting to over the last few years.

Our current administration is bent on putting us on the same track as socialist Europe. His next Presidential proclamation is on environment


"On Monday, the Post has learned, the Obama administration plans to release the finalized “Clean Power Plan,” the president’s flagship policy to combat global warming. The plan is aimed at the electricity sector, which generates the largest single slice of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions — 31 percent of them.

The final rule, which officials say will be part of a major new climate push by the president, is likely to both thrill environmental groups and pique industry — it seeks to achieve even deeper cuts than the 2014 proposed plan, which itself was already controversial."

What you need to know about Obama

"It’s important to note that most of these changes — more renewables, more natural gas, fewer coal-fired power plants — are happening anyway. The Clean Power Plan seeks to ride atop an energy sector trend that is already occurring, while also hastening it along."

TV residents love their socialized single-payer health care, commonly known as Medicare, as long as you keep the government's hand out of it.

There is also concern WITHIN the Democratic party...

"Centrist Democrats were wiped out in the 2014 elections and in their absence emerged a resurgent liberal movement, embodied most recently by the surprisingly competitive presidential campaign of Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.
But the suddenly ascendant left — its populist overtones becoming part of the mainstream Democratic pitch — is worrying Democrats who want to compete on Republican-leaning turf. The party lost every competitive gubernatorial and Senate race in the South last year. And Democrats didn’t fare much better in the heartland.

The difference between a socialist and a democrat is the socialist will admit that is what they are.

The democrat will dance around and make it sound like a lot of something else but never refer to it as socialism......you know same old political mumbo jumbo business as usual.

Well, at least under Hillary's "leadership", we will all equally poor.

Perhaps the question could be, "What is the difference between The Villages Tea Party and the KKK?"

From a lot of posts on the forum, I would guess there is not too much difference.

Or perhaps it should be "What is the difference between The Villages' liberals and and an Idiot".

That KKK comment wasn't me.

The Republicans treat Socialism as a swear word. Social Security, and Medicare are two socialist programs. I don't hear many people complaining about them here.

Single payer, Medicare for all, is the way to go. Cost of health care has gone through the roof. There was a number in the 90's that it cost the federal government 4 cents to process a claim, and 24 cents for an insurance company. I am sure that that gap is a lot closer now. You can open up state borders for health insurance companies that is not going to reduce premiums. They know what each other are going to charge. They prices will be so close you won't be able to tell the difference. Fixing prices is a strange way for Capitalism to work.

If the government can't process claims in an efficient manner, let the insurance companies process the claims, but will have accept the amount the federal government determines to be fair to process a claim. Who cares! Single payer will never happen. Insurance companies throw to much money at our elected officials. They are bought and paid for.

Is anyone out there going to try and sell that we are working on an equal playing field? Citizens United has guaranteed that the rich will never be the victim of the Democrats. Treating them as victims of anything is beyond the pale. It is not how much you make. It is how much you keep. Making the tax laws a lot fairer isn't an assault on the rich. It is common sense.

What is the difference between the Villages' liberals and an idiot? Villages' liberals have more money, and a fully functional brain in their head.

What is the difference between the Village Tea Party, and the KKK? In the serious department, that is over the top, and just not right. Nobody is as bad as the KKK. In the just kidding department, the KKK won't be the target of the IRS, if they apply for a 501(c)4 charitable political organization classification. I don't think the KKK has any need to place political ads on TV.

Another testimony to the commitment to total and complete nonsense.

The essence of the difference ... well stated

But remember, kind readers, that it is extremely likely that the Democrat nominee will win the presidency in 2016.

Curious,,,,,you might be correct, but on what do you base your absolute ?

Polls reflect a very dynamic picture right now and it is early....really curious about how you came to this call.

Fact is there is no Republican candidate and the Democratic picture is getting fuzzy suddenly.

Progress is noted! The statement excludes that Clinton is the next POTUS.

When Biden throws his hat in the ring Clinton will fade even faster.
