Oh, and Bernie did NOT blow it. When he first ran, he was an unknown, who managed to garner nearly 1/2 of the delegates, and raise the people's awareness on REAL issues.
His organization is busy working to put REAL LIBERAL PROGRESSIVE Democrats into office.
The first blow to the status quo came last night, when Zephyr Teachout, a Berniecrat, won her primary bid in the NY 19 by FORTY-SIX percentage points, against a challenger who was constantly consulting the DLC. The REAL Democrat won this one, and it is just the start. In the next two to ten years, we shall have a Berniecrat majority, and who knows, someone like Teachout could be our first LIBERAL DEMOCRATIC president!
