ones who've noticed, mister.
We have to agree with David Plouffe, Obamas former campaign manager, who tweeted out the other day:
Sanders has run a stunningly strong campaign fueled by passionate supporters. But raising $$ stating you have path to nomination is fraud.

Some Sunday host asked BS about this and he said.. DP works for the Clinton campaign.. which is a damn lie. He endorsed her only. And, it's still "fraud"..
Great 1st comment..

I have been a delegate to the last 10 National Conventions and attended dozens of Democratic National Committee meetings, over the decades. I have never met Senator Sanders. He finally came to a DNC meeting last summer in Minneapolis, to speak as a presidential candidate. What bothers a lot of Democrats, is Sanders has shown disdain for the Democratic Party for decades. He ran against a woman (sound familiar) incumbent Democratic Governor, ran against Senator Pat Leahy (almost costing him the election) but now acting like he has been family all his life. People from Vermont have said- Bernie is consistent- he is always for Bernie.
Thank you! I love it! Calbuzz!

(15,696 posts)5. Howard Dean was just on MSNBC, and it was really strange.
It wasn't what he said about Bernie needing to rally his supporters in favor of Clinton; it was what he DIDN'T SAY, and how loudly he didn't say it.
Did that make any sense? He acted like he really didn't like BS, but he wouldn't go on the record. It was really weird.

VT as well as all but a couple in The Dem House & Senate.
They know him better than anyone.

And how did the AA community respond to the question about supporting HRC... 'she was there for us.'

As does Sanders himself.

(23,690 posts)10. Truth. It would be a massacre if BS got the nomination
The reason why Sanders runs better than Clinton against Republican contenders is simple: while Republicans have run virtually no negatives against Sanders (because they want him to be the nominee), Clinton has been accused of everything literally from murder to treason over a span of 30 years. Yet shes still standing.
Calbuzz spelled this out back in January and even some of the laggard MSM have begun to understand the facts. David Corn of Mother Jones argued that the big problem for Bernie would be that hes a socialist and Republicans would attack him on those grounds.
Thats way too naïve. Sanders would be bludgeoned hammer and sickle as a dead-beat dad with an illegitimate son as an atheist, commie, pinko out to raise your taxes, crush your religious freedom and your right to bear arms, weaken the military and appease the Russians, set criminals free to rape your daughter, take away your home, round you up and ship you off to live on a vegan commune with leather-clad lesbians and gays in charge.
