Is it just me or did it look like Bernie was shrinking in front of our eyes?
He couldn't answer Tapper's direct question about super delegates or the state of the race or, if he thinks the candidate with the most votes and most pledged delegates should win the nomination. He didn't have a good answer or argument to support his campaign's current stance.
It was kinda sad....All he had was his impotent and petty little jabs at DWS.

(15,445 posts)Hardy more coherent than Trump when trying to flesh out the details of his "REVOLUTION" (TM).
"Just believe me, when those millions of marchers are amassing in front of the Congress, the Repubs will rush to pass my program." (Sanders) = "Trust me, it''s gonna be yuge, the greatest ever, you'll love it." (Trump)
Aside from a difference in register and tone, show me how their respective approaches to governance are different.

(12,448 posts)He refused to give a straight answer to if the candidate with the most pledged delegates at the end of the process should be the nominee. This is a yes or no question but he circled around it and answered a question that was NOT asked instead. He does this a lot and it's very annoying.
Jake Tapper seemed to be annoyed with him. He asked that question TWICE and got the same runaround.

(4,640 posts)You know, a few things:
1. He couldn't answer a straightforward question asked of him TWICE. It was all the stump speech in response.
2. He really, really has issues with DWS, who IS doing her job, and from what I've seen, has gone out of her way to be fair to this nasty old brat.
3. We need the super delegates. THEY are our firewall against a potential Trump.
