Bernie Can't Win!
Yep were back to this ol' message. Pretty tired if you ask me especially since Bernie beat the pantsuit off Hillary in NH, has eliminated her national lead, has tied her in Nevada (her firewall) and is leading with pledged delegates.
The new twist on it is that even people who like Bernie and his policies have endorsed Clinton. I think this is just backlash against the endorsements and super delegates (especially in the south and Nevada) who have switched from Clintonto Bernie.

(3,937 posts)They will parade all of it out again -- "unicorns" "Santa Claus" "liberal economists" "naive" "both sides do it" "Mike said 'uterus" "not a Democrat" -- all of it again.
If they drop anything new tomorrow then we will know they believe they are in real trouble in Nevada.

(3,937 posts)Recently GWB blurted out that his job as fake President and front man for Cheney and the cabal was "to keep expectations low." That phrase embodies the defense against Sanders right now.
That phrases haunts me as I watch the defense against Bernie's rise take shape. "Hope and Change" beat Clinton and Romney in 2008 now there is Bernie and the other side goes back to the same defense that didn't work before. Maybe they have nothing else.
We could win this thing.

(10,287 posts)Because hrc supporters won't vote for him.
The only way he loses is if the same people who have been demanding loyalty prove disloyal
Sure glad hrc supporters.dont have a history of doing anything like that.

(10,786 posts)Sanders can fight back on CORRUPTION, INCOME INEQUALITY & GREED!
Sanders will easily be able paint all the Repuke distortions as the product of rich Repuke contributors desperately trying to maintain a rigged system that benefits only them. Because this will be the obvious TRUTH.
Clinton can NOT fight their attacks this way because she is one of them.
