Opinion: In 2020 Bernie Sanders faces a daunting adversary: his own success, writes TedRall. Progressive voters are no longer a wing of the Democratic Party. They are its heart and soul.
Bernie Sanders is running again. He no longer faces a ferocious former first lady or a party apparatus stacked from top to bottom with her cronies. This time he faces a more daunting adversary: his own success. He nearly won the nomination in 2016, and he did win the party, even though he never formally joined it. The Clintonian “third way” counterrevolution is dead. Progressive voters are no longer a wing of the Democratic Party. They are its heart and soul.
