didn't she say he wrote a letter that the down ticket campaigns can use as an endorsement or something vague like that?

4. Wow...

Well, at least my support for him has been on par with his down ticket support...
lol

7. I just rewatched the clip

she said he has been supportive if Ds in the past and his letters of support have always brought in more money than anybody else's letters. She also said that he will continue to offer letters of support. She tried to claim that he gives campaign money to down ticket (actually "other) candidates but she wasn't specific and Maddow seemed to want to move on to keep her from saying something she can't really defend.

8. Wait until he institutes Bernie Bucks...

Well, it certainly doesn't show Bernie in a good light. I mean,
for a campaign where the main point is spreading wealth from
the big guys to little guys...a campaign with tens of millions
of dollars...for him not to do so is...well, it's something for
sure.

5. Yeah, the "he continues to fund raise as he's always had"...yeah, but putting his sig under

mass-mailers for donations. But when it comes to cold, hard cash, NADA.

The ol' Socialist is one heckuva greedy guy! I mean, he's also against giving to charities. He believes the gov't should take care of that. It's always someone else who has to do the hard work.

3. The Revolooshun is FREE! We just didn't get the memo.

6. He's not doing it because he doesn't know how

Maybe he thinks it's charity and we know how he feels about charity.

9. He will give them a letter with his endorsement?

Over $40 million and that is all he could manage, how kind of him. He is spending so much on his own campaign and campaign staff that the only monies he has to give to other down ballot Democrats would be Monopoly Money. Thanks for nothing Bernie, and I mean nothing. No wonder DWS didn't trust him.
