and perhaps they learnt from HRC supporters' experience what awaits when you criticize the Bern even a bit!

But I agree with you. That would be something.

Oh, and I wish they'd tell BS to quit writing Tea Bagger talking points.

but I can completely understand why they're not. I'm sure it's for reasons with which we're very familiar. It's crazy how quickly the more zealous fans will throw someone under the bus just for saying they don't hate Hillary!

Very fascistic tendencies...reminds me a little of someone else's supporters...

Sanders puts a lot of emphasis on the platform, as he did in his interview with Maddow last night. As she said, the importance of the platform dissipates after the convention. It's a document that outlines the philosophy of the party but candidates don't take a copy on the stump and wave it at the crowd. Sanders wants to take credit for putting his ideas in the platform. After that, so what? Does he expect candidates to agree with every plank or they can't run?
