I guess his support of Bernie has made him forget what a racist pig Trump is! I am disappointed I have always like him.

he immediately ran to the MSNBC studio to jump in front of the camera and say that Shirley Sherrod needed to be fired because he couldn't bother to wait to find out that it was a doctored video.

I wonder if these Bernie holdouts realize that their intransigence alienates them from the D rank-n-file.

Jealous needs to get over it and join the fight. Otherwise, get off the field and take your place on the bench with the other second stringers.

So far tonight the following people have shown that they are really stupid... Frank Rich, Rachel Maddow, Lawrence O'D and Ben because they all referred to the leftover 6-8% of BS supporters who are not voting for Hillary as "the base".

Paulites, Libertarians and Anarchists are not the base of the Democratic Party. MSNBC has gone to some trouble tonight to bring on cranky BS supporters. What crappy "reporting".
