Claire McCaskill Just Screwed The Pooch — Bad Move Attacking Bernie

[GoLeft TV]

Bernie Sanders keeps gaining momentum on the left; meanwhile, Donald Trump looks like he’s getting some traction on the right.

Mike Papantonio talks with Ed Schultz on MSNBC’s The Ed Show about the latest poll numbers for the 2016 election.

1. She is a big negative on me . Some onewho has not decided on my primary vote

2. Interesting to me is the Republican strategist taking third way tact that Bernie has a

problem with the minority, especially African American, voting bloc.

3. To send a mouthpiece out so early on in the campaign is a big mistake, obviously Clinton is worried.

4. I'm not so sure

Hillary was behind this faux pas. McCaskill is perfectly capable of loose cannon status without any coaching from anyone else. She be a cranky lady.

5. Totally classless

Here's a hint, Senator: should Hillary be the nominee, and if you have any hope inspiring people to show up at the polls to vote for her, this is NOT the way to do it!

6. I Have a Different take on This 'Supposed' Controversy!

And no I don’t think Hillary is behind this as has been suggested – that’s rather silly - my take only. You really think Hillary told Claire to go after Bernie’s socialism? Really? Most of us libs are already rather socialistic! Just because someone makes comments interpreted as negative who happens to support Hillary doesn’t mean Hillary is behind it.

Nonetheless, when McCaskill talks about Bernie’s socialism, I never took that as negative. I thought it was simply stating a fact. First of all, remember claims of socialism during Obama’s first two years in office (like that’s a bad thing anyway!)? I think McCaskill was simply stating that she was surprised that the media was not talking to Bernie about that, not that she thinks they should. That’s all – that was my take.

7. looks like Cantwell's behind her

in complete agreement. Man she needs to be gone, yesterday, freaking vampire.
