MA House Dem Michael Moran Endorses Sanders -- "Most Electable"

BEDFORD, N.H. – A senior member of the Massachusetts House Democratic leadership is breaking ranks with the state’s political establishment and backing Bernie Sanders for president over Hillary Clinton, after supporting her 2008 bid.

Michael J. Moran, a Brighton Democrat and one of Speaker Robert DeLeo’s top deputies, said he will campaign Sunday for Sanders, calling him a better general-election candidate than Clinton because of Sanders’s ability to appeal to low-income voters in traditionally Republican states.

They don't matter. They're just one war away from being a forgotten war veteran under a bridge where they belong.
