Looks like Bernie may have done better than Obama did 8 years ago where Hillary won by 6%

This year she may have won by 4 to 5% and It seem that he may have won latinos. The rules were changed so this year Hillary gets 18 Delegates to Bernie's 14, this is not going to be over any time soon. If Hillary had lost it would have been game over, so her win keeps her alive for the time being.

To face.

As it turns out, the "buddy" of Tim Geithner had RW support, even that of RW commentators, during 2008 election cycle.

I was forced to watch a lot of Fox TV due to taking care of one elderly client. And several Fox people would refer to Obama as "a special case" and insist that he needed to be treated with "kid gloves."

Now that I realize how he has given the nation away to Banking interests, I understand why that "kid gloves" approach was taken.


On edit:
Bernie Sanders will not be given this "kid gloves" treatment. He will be vilified as a socialist who will steal all our private property away from us, and they certainly won't mind if Hillary Clinton steals the Primaries away from him.
