he said that his epiphany with hillary came at their house when he saw her get a garbage back and bus up the backyard after lunch. It shocked him that a SOS could be so 'normal'. He basically blows. Mama's boy.

Otherwise, it's gonna be really awkward when Hillary campaigns for Bernie after the primaries.

She's a Republican in everything but name. Watching this replay from 2008 is almost comical, but to me this is a clear signal that they know they're going to lose.

Kudos to the Burlington Free Press for going public in this--and how stupid is Corrupt the Record for doing with a Burlington paper? Did they think BFP was going to stay schtum?

I trust enough of the American people to see through all of this same old-same old. That's why Bernie is catching on everywhere he goes/introduces himself.

From the first link:

"Hillary Clinton’s super PAC has tried to “flag” stories about Bernie Sanders, but the group does not want its name attached.

Daniel Wessel, Correct the Record press secretary, contacted the Burlington Free Press by email and phone to offer "off the record" story pitches.

The Free Press first attempted to contact Correct the Record officials while writing about the super PAC paying for a poll that named Clinton winner of the Nov. 14 Democratic debate in Des Moines, Iowa.

While the organization did not respond to the initial request for comment, Wessel emailed the Free Press in early January to point out that Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy "hit Bernie on guns today.""
