3rd Way is very afraid of Bernie Sanders.

Ari Rabin-Havt, a host of "The Agenda" on Sirius/XM Progressive Channel 127, is a former Legislative Correspondent for Ted Strickland D. Ohio and many other awesome credits and on his show today he talked about this.

https://www.linkedin.com/pub/ari-rabin-havt/17/409/64a


I trust him explicitly, he is also a SENIOR FELLOW for Media Matters, and yet, he is the one who went on at some length today about why the 3rd way is afraid of Bernie.

The same reason I support Bernie, and many here do, is WHY the 3rd way (Wall STreet) is afraid of him.

Ari also will of course vote for Hillary if need be and support her candidacy, but he has said and I agree that Bernie is the real deal and this is why Wall Street, which includes 3rd way, is so afraid of him, and they are afraid.

That is all for now...

Stop trying to make up a word. You don't seem to have any real luck at it. Also, it suggests that you might be the same person as another person that posts here.

No, I'm just me.

Tell you what, Sanders is making a powerful showing and I'm certain he'll have better poll numbers soon--that's how polls work---so don't be sad.

I'm laughing because Sanders isn't scary to anybody, except maybe republicans.

He is a Senator from Vermont. He will not win the nomination therefore will not be President.
Why do you need people to be afraid? How does that attract people to your side? It narrows the field of supporters because you are either full boat Bernie or you must fear Bernie.
You will never understand why you can't attract more than 25% support.
You just don't inspire people to join your side with all the devisions you create.

when compared to Clinton and O'Malley. The only people talking fear are Sanders supporters themselves. It simply doesn't make sense.

guy who is telling us something he knows from the inside.

Nobody is talking about fear that I know of other than him and me for the purpose of this thread.

But when I heard Ari saying it, to me that is different.
