Bernie's crowd was booing his mention of the NY governor and I don't think he ever said Cuomo's name. When Bernie mentioned the minimum wage battle somebody in the crowd yelled out "Fight for $15!" and Bernie said, "that's right". Bernie said that didn't happen because the governor woke up one day and decided the minimum wage should be $15, it happened because workers made him an offer he couldn't refuse.

She was trying to sell an audience bullshit on a local issue they know a lot better than she does. It was the same crap she tried to peddle at the minimum wage ceremony the other day when she said it happened because he did the hard work. Cuomo was on the record saying $15 was too high and the minimum wage should be $10.50 as recently as September of last year. He only gave in last month because of the strength of the movement. Local people know that stuff. Hillary lives in a bubble. Or maybe she thinks she's the Queen and the plebes are obligated to applaud anything she says.

Did you notice how she smiled, put up her hand and slowly shook her head? It had the smugness of: "now don't even try because that's the way it is, and there's nothing you can do about it." Friendly authority figures do that with protesting underlings. Adults do it with children.

...a new low for the Sanders campaign here.

To bash Bernie.

He was dragged along. It was the people's struggle.

Bernie supporters realize that people = change.

Hillary supporters worship at the alter of politicians and thank them for any table scraps.

She gave the credit to the "hard work" of Governor Cuomo, who was in opposition to it until it became inevitable. I only saw a clip of what Hillary said and don't know if she mentioned the worker's movement or not.

Not good!

knew perfectly well that she's only in favor of a $12 minimum wage. And was saying it over and over until NY and CA actually passed the $15 one. Now she wants you to think it was her idea in the first place.

I was juror #4. BUT EVERYONE BE CAREFUL. Some folks are in an angry mood this morning.

And it has taken a contribution of between $1 million and $5 million from James Murdoch, son of Rupert Murdoch of Fox News.

So are right wing news sources still off limits since the Clinton Foundation takes money from them?

Something we all should think about ...

I don't think the approved media like the NYDN would ever report this story. Since it was actual footage without commentary and editorializing like the approved source, I felt it was worth reporting. It's not like it was awarding pinocchios.

... would be posted much less survive a jury 0-7.

There was a time when DUers would be disgusted by posts coming from right wingers .... regardless of who or what they supported. No, I am not a Clinton supporter, I just hate links to right wingers and vote to lock anything being touted from a right wing site, regardless of who or what they are attacking.

I am hoping the admins hold true to their word http://www.democraticunderground.com/10135098

Blah blah garbled derp

Never OK in my mind ... regardless of who or what they attack

Bernie is the real champion of the working class.

I don't think it changes anything but more context is better.
