Really the powers that be need to show the evidence for the violence.But so far all we got are mere complaints. With all the police, someone would have been arrested.

2. It's like the run up to the Iraq war isn't it? Nothing but a wall of sound without any facts.

6. They don't need to show anything. The entire media is under their control.

They could claim Bernie is a pedophile on every TV channel. They wouldn't have to show a bit of evidence. All they would have to do is embark on a media wide blitz.

This country sucks and I think we know why.

The Hillary organization is pulling these dirty tricks because they are in fear.

Obviously they fear that potential voters will learn the truth about both Bernie and Hillary.

Even though the media is completely in the tank for Hillary they still feel the need to pull these stunts. Yet in pulling this bullshit they are alienating possible Hillary voters if she wins the nomination. This makes no sense. They can't be this dumb.

But what is the source of their fear? Deep down the Hillary team must feel they are in danger of losing the nomination. Is the E-mail thing gaining traction? There is more going on here than meets the eye. WTF?

Yes, I know: 20 minutes out of your lifetime is a lot to ask. But Cenk's concluding remarks are spot-on.

"If rhetorically you don't fight back, you don't get anything. All they're going to try to do is steamroll you.
OK. This is your strategy, by the way, this is the Democratic strategy for party unity? Brilliant! Brilliant! We look so unified now, charging these ugly, ugly allegations that have no factual basis.
"Sanders continues: 'If the Democratic Party is to be successful in November, it is imperative that all state parties treat our campaign supporters with fairness and the respect that they have earned. Unfortunately, that was not the case at the Nevada convention. At that convention the Democratic leadership used its power to prevent a fair and transparent process from taking place.' "
