There was an awkward moment when Sanders made a Freudian slip...

"There was an awkward moment when Sanders made a Freudian slip and said “if the Democrats want to defeat Hillary Clinton…” before pivoting and saying his campaign is the one of excitement."

Dickerson asked him why he’s suddenly embracing the superdelegates he was denouncing months ago. Sanders said it’s unfair for Clinton to have all these superdelegates on her pocket, but completely fair for his campaign to try and sway them the other way.

No, Bernie.. the Dems don't want to "defeat Hillary Clinton".. you and your campaign to demonize her do.

Awww.. BS is crying "unfair" while he's trying to subvert the will of the People.

He's confused.. Dems don't want to defeat Hillary.. we've already "defeated" Bernie sanders and now we want to "defeat" the teabagger candidate.

Is there anything more embarrassing than this guy who says his campaign is the only one with "excitement"?

It's pitiful.

Are there any equivalent pictures of Bernie talking to ordinary people in venues small enough that he can hear what they say, not just have them listen to his stump speech? I don't pay attention to his campaign that way, so I don't know, to be honest. But it doesn't seem like it.

That's what he hopes for...Democrats defeating Hillary Clinton. And he has the nerve to demand the support of superdelegates; the same superdelegates he has railed about as being unfair and undemocratic. The same people who are members of the very establishment he's criticized ad infinitum in every single speech, debate, and Town Hall.

PLEASE let this primary be over!

Mon May 2, 2016, 06:42 AM
May 2016

In his speeches he first sets up what the problems are in our economy and "democracy"...
Then he links Hillary Clinton to them.
Many of his supporters believe that Hillary Clinton and other "corporate" democrats, "establishment" democrats are obstacles to progress, thanks to Bernie Sanders' lectures on the campaign trail. This is what he teaches all those young people he "is bringing in." Thanks so much Senator sanders
He has not changed one iota from when he made all the statements you cite above.
The fact that he signed up as a Dem in order to run on the Dem ticket makes him a DINO.
He is trouble.

I will be so glad when Hillary Clinton proves him wrong, again, and secures the magic number before the convention.

Good post Cha! You do an amazing job!

want to elect Hillary and that's eating him alive.. he's sooo jealous of what Hillary has.. and she has it because she's put in the work and the years.

And, he's done nothing.. he can't run on his record so he has to attempt to tear down hers.. he's just another run of the mill pol who is passing on misinformation to further his own self centered agenda.

BS gets the worst teacher of the year award.

Sanders allies warns superdelegates to not 'thwart the will of the people'
By ELIZA COLLINS 02/11/16 10:23 AM EST

An influential ally of Bernie Sanders is pressuring superdelegates to back whomever the voters choose, warning that the Democratic party will not tolerate those who "thwart the will of the people.”

http://www.politico.com/story/2016/02/bernie-sanders-superdelegates-219126

The voters have chosen Hillary so now Bernie throws his "high morals standards" right out the window and tries to thwart the will of the people!

Obviously Bernies moral standards are a sham and a joke. How could anyone trust a man like this as President?
