"Bernie Sanders was among those who voted against the auto rescue funds. But we fought for it, and got it done anyway."
That is an absolute killer for the Sanders campaign.
Slam dunk.

Sanders voted with the Republicans and one or two Democrats as I remember...this was after the inauguration... against it. Without those funds autos would have gone under...one of the reasons, I don't think Sanders should be our nominee...it can't always be about ideology...sometimes you have to compromise.

for Hillary because of her strong expressed support for Israel. Talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face.
Also, African American turnout underperformed - I think the narrative that Hillary had it in the bag caused people to stay home who would have likely voted in an election that was viewed as close.
