It's really quite simple.

I'd be pissed too if I was losing to an absurd reality tv host with a dead squirrel on his dead.

Are you relating to a general feeling here, or do you have anything substantive to base on how we'll vote tomorrow?

Because when you have to start bringing Trump into the conversation, I think you might just be a little mad yourself. We aren't comparing Bernie Sanders to anyone during the primary outside of your candidate, and you didn't even mention her.

Exit polling would indicate he's doing way better than the actual counts. What in the world could be going on? Seriously - I don't know anyone excited about Hillary running. Nobody. Some will reluctantly vote for her if the DNC crams her down the collective democratic throat, however their party will be in ruins because of all the shenanigans. I will never vote for a cheater or support a corrupt party. We're going to have to start all over.

I wonder...Vote flipping machines? I'd say the numbers are mighty peculiar. Voter Suppression, a certainty. I don't believe the outcome in NY is the will of the people and I say the same about MA and AZ.

I agree. Don't know one actual Hillfan in the real world. Only online.

Republican family members are voting for Kasich. Some indies say anybody but Hillary. I don't know anyone voting for her.

I do know one person. Former state congresscritter and deeply involved in the elect a woman president ideal.

and informed you all are with great frequency.

But then I grew up.

Only in his dreams.

Enjoying your minimum wage shill job? If Bernie was president you would be earning more trolling for Hillary.

Go back to whichever cave you inhabit.

The one that no longer exists. Vote for Clinton. Go ahead. But don't expect anything better than the status quo that is suffocating and killing the poor and downtrodden. I will vote for someone who doesn't say single payer "will never happen" or that tuition-free state college is "a pipe dream". Fuck that. Go bold and go strong. Go Birdie!

Watching this is painful.
I love that we're being told we're stupid for supporting Hillary by his surrogates.
This party......... This election....... I can't even.

not a one!

don't mean much in the long run. Hillary supporters listened to both sides and then showed up where it matters: at the voting booth.

I have not seen any exit polls that vary in any great margin from the counted votes.

My crowd is over the top enthusiastic to vote for Hillary.
We just don't go to rallies.

But VOTE? Oh baby , we vote.

as should you if you don't like excessive concentrations of wealth and power and an elite corporate class that has basically bought our government.

leaving school mired in debt and people who need medical care and can't get it. Just because you support someone who wants to ride the coattails of another president is so disgusting.

Beyond tiresome.

We have your back, Bernie👍

well, we can be happy if our personal lives merit it...But pissed at how our country has been sold to the highest bidders.

And it's quite clear that there are a lot of inattentive or willfully blind 'Democrats.'

vs The Constitution.

die.

have gone to one too many presentations of Les Miserables.

It's incumbent on HC to win my supporters if it comes to that (paraphrasing).

Good to see a renewed fire in his belly!

The first was that he can not snap his fingers and deliver his supporters. He then said that HRC will have to reach for those people. He listed issues she can move on ... which I doubt she will, as she has already moved to the left on many issues.

The second part was that he said he knew how extreme the Republicans are - and that he would fight to keep a Republican out of the Oval Office.

(The funny thing is that I had lunch today with a Burlingtonian, who like most Burlingtonians, knew Bernie very well from when he was mayor. When the question of what Bernie would do if he lost --- her answer was so close to something like this that my husband and I were stunned.

The fact is that that answer is FAR more compelling and real than if he answered that he would become a leading surrogate. If he did that, he would lose credibility with the very people he needs to influence -- those who are not wanting to vote for HRC. He can be more effective - staying true to the causes that he has had for decades -- and making the case that a Republican in the Oval Office are detrimental to those causes.

Think about it as if you were a Sanders supporter, who thinks Clinton is not a good alternative and you care about the issues that they differ on, which impresses you more:

- Sanders appearing to thrash all those issues and become a cookie cutter surrogate for Clinton

OR

- Sanders remaining himself and making a case that a Republican would be far worse and devastating on both the issues that he and Clinton differ on, but those they disagree on.

My take is the latter works far better with Sanders' real authenticity.

Further, compare the second part to Nader 2000 -- Sanders does not equate HRC with a Republican and says he will work to keep a Republican out.

Chris Hayes head looks like a honeydew melon.

I think it is the suit that is making his noggin look like melon

he is losing and is frustrated by it. Hopefully he will not screw up the end game and undo all the good he has done these past 6 months.

Bernie is obviously both. I know plenty of smart people. It goes with my job.

both my wife and I come from blue collar roots - there are plenty of working poor in our families.

was that merely another brainless retort directed at me because I disagree with you? In that case I apologize.

Clinton Family wealth puts them in the top 1% of the top 1% not counting their Foundation nor their daughters $15,000,000. Idolization of the wealthy.

i am not a simplistic single issue voter.

How about her position on fracking or the TPP or medical marijuana? She is on the wrong side of all those issues.

Oh I know you like her Prisons For Profits

Here are some important points made by Black Lives Matter Activist Ashley Williams:

“Here's the truth: the Clinton legacy has left our prisons bursting at the seams. Real lives have been destroyed as a result. It is an indisputable fact that millions of Black people were locked up for drug crimes and provided the bodies for the expansion of the prison industry.

The 1994 Crime Bill that she so vigorously defended not only expanded incarceration, but stripped funding for college education from prisoners. The Clinton legacy allowed for policies that prevented anyone convicted of a felony drug offense from receiving food stamps or income assistance. Clinton-led welfare reform fundamentally ripped apart the social safety net.”


“Make no mistake, Hillary Clinton's efforts to push these policies resulted in the continued destruction of Black communities and the swift growth of our mass incarceration crisis.”

Have a good evening.

put amassing wealth before helping those among us struggling. We are not going quietly into the night one way or the other.

We have 2.5 million children homeless and Clinton will assure that Goldman-Sachs gets bigger profits.

arrogant and haughty any day.

someday.

tell a lot more about the gloater then the person who lost?

about the person and the person s/he supports

Troll. Or sock. Or both.

And yeah, this may get me a hide, but screw it. People behaving like this deserve to be called, particularly since the new rules let them keep doing it.

What's funny is that they call Bernie supporters "Bros" and complain that we're bullies, but nearly all the bad behavior in on their part.

I don't think they can stand to see other people happy. Hm, that might explain their lack of concern about what their candidate could do the American people.

After the pitiless and cruel treatment of Hillary supporters ... after the lies and smears about Hillary ... after being stalked and juried to death, bullied, insulted, silenced and expelled through the abuse of a flawed system ... it's time for the winning minority at this site to celebrate and enjoy our candidate's insurmountable lead and her forthcoming and inevitable victory.

It may be the only thing you have going with your life.

Some of you seem to think that anger in itself is virtuous. It isn't.
[hr][font color="blue"][center]Precision and concision. That's the game.[/center][/font][hr]

Maybe angry isn'y the right word....He's not yelling and throwing tantrums,. But he is laying down the gauntlet to Clinton and the Dem Establishment to take up the issues he has been raising, and not backslide into their complacency.

I'm all for expanding the Democratic platform and taking specific stands on issues. And that's what I'm hoping comes out of all this.
[hr][font color="blue"][center]Precision and concision. That's the game.[/center][/font][hr]

His answers are so smart and complete and well thought out. This is his best interview.

Strong, clear, logical, passionate.

Universal pre-K is on Bernie's platform.

Armstead, I wish we didn't have to watch this with the jokers...

But maybe it's like rubbing a cavity with the tongue.

(Hits home, too. I have a chipped tooth since Friday. tmi)

but I wouldn't want to unduly worry the young 'uns.

Other than lack of natural choppers, and the eyesight issue, I don't aches and pains or the otehr issues.

Some of my friends on the otehr hand.....

it was kind of bitter-sweet to sing him the first few bars of the Beatles song but couldn't go much further without risking some hurt.

As someone with OA and RA, I've got serious aches and pains but try not to let them get me down. You're doing great, Armstead.

I have adjusted to it, but it sucks. I couldn't resist jumping into this old fart discussion...I'm 65.

It's a real challenge. Have you had it long, Punkingal? I was diagnosed 18 mos. ago, and since it coincided with other medical events, it's been an upheaval. I'm still trying to understand what's happening.

There seem to be quite a few old farts here on DU. Boomers are nice people.

I was diagnosed in 2005, but had it as early as 2000 I know now. I have other issues, too, pernicious anemia for one.

Glad he explained his comment on the soda tax. Also glad I wasn't the one that asked him that question as a Hillary supporter....talk about feeling small after his response....ouch.

I hope he has a strong stomach. He's been excellent so far.

I'm watching the Hill segment now and there have been no interruptions.

Really hating on the media...

Aww, so cheesy...

I've always liked that he was up and moving across the stage, but I have to say, this is fantastic. He's clear, direct and not backing down.

And I loved his response on whether he needed to sell his supporters on Hillary. No, absolutely not. That's her job, and if she can't provide solutions or support issues important to us, then it's clear our votes aren't important to her.

He is in top form tonight.

In other news...water is wet.

Flim at 11.

It might do you some good.

Now if he was talking about how he would get all the legislation that he proposes past the teabag house, which would be like holy water to vampires, that would be interesting.

Learn the difference.

I hope you can forgive me

Or not. I will for sure though.

You're working - or not? - but are watching Bernie - or not? - on company time - or not? - but you critiquing something you're not watching - or are?????

BTW, I'm feeling totally awesome because my candidate answered questions with intelligence and without anger unlike yours.

Hmmm. So are you watching or not watching at work your favorite candidate?

Are you paying attention or just finding things to be cranky about?

which shows that you have zero credibility.
