Even if Hillary wins she needs the youth vote Bernie has tapped into. Matthews is trying to shrink or keep the party from going left, is it out of fear?

They trotted out every BS argument in their bag. I can't wait for the interview to be posted; I've been wanting to try my hand at video editing and there is lots of tape of Bernie and others addressing every scare-point they've come up with.

I'm furious.

He can't stand that young people have ideas different from his own. We have to keep the corporatist friends of his happy. Steve Schmidt already was on MSNBC with this rant last night. So credible from the man who gave us Sarah Palin.

Kind of scummy the way media personalities try so hard to influence voters, they should be completely impartial - especially right before an event.

"not Bernie Sanders, he's not a Democratic party member"....

Yes, and all that red-baiting and 'no we can't!', what a steaming pile.

He really seems to dislike Sanders a lot.
