Hillary must just Hate Bernie's flap with Trump taking over the News cycle

It proves, while the Sander's Campaign didn't actually plan the protest at the Trump rallies, Bernie's supporters are much more supportive of Black Lives Matter and a far more energized electorate then Hillary supporters.

And the longer this flap continues the more people will get familiar with Bernie's Brand. Integrity, Honesty, and Consistency. Things Hillary definitely doesn't want to try and defend with her vacillation on Trade positions

But most of all - for all intensive purposes - from listening to the media in all of this, it appears that its a 2 man race, Bernie vs: Trump

They are saying on the news this morning this is why it's happening because Trump loses by a wider margin in a GE against Bernie.
Isn't this what we have been saying all along?
A Hillary nomination = a DEM LOSS.

Hillary has a solid plurality of delegates.

Trump does not.

What Sanders, Cruz, Rubio, and Katich do have in common is that they are far behind.

But keep thinking that isolated big rallies, embarrassing news, and the social media clicky-clicky makes a nominee.

... all she knows is what she wants.

Sen. Sanders is a progressive leader, so taking on Trump is every measure of who he is and has been for 50+ years.

Mrs. Clinton is a politician -- the basis for what she does comes from calculating political loss or gain, so critiquing Trump is done in the context of tactics, not conviction.

Yes, Sanders is stealing a march on her in regards to Trump, but that is just too bad, she is what she is.
