Nicole Wallace just can't stop shilling for Hillary

About all she could do on MSNBC today is complain about how mean Bernie is to Hillary and how much he is hurting her chances and that DWS needs to stop Bernie from hurting Hillary and, and, and.

Why, oh why, would she be putting Bernie down and protecting HRC?

Anything to do with the fact that Bernie is polling much higher against Republican candidates than Hill is?

It's what they do, divide the other side.

I wish the ones on my side did more of that to the Rs.

They do report accurately and also will not shy away from letting you know they have a bias. I never seen them lie about something, and and end of the day that is what we need in news.

If he were actually a credible nominee, Trump would be rambling on about his rape essay, his conscientious objector status, his critiques of the CIA, his ties to the Socialist Workers Party, and his desire to gut the military. While some of those positions may be commendable or popular in left-wing circles, Trump will crucify him with all of it. The only reason you haven't heard any of this is because nobody in Right Wing land takes him remotely seriously as a candidate.

The right wing has spent thirty years and billions of dollars branding Hillary a radical left-wing socialist. What do people think the Right will do when they actually go up against a real one? He's too extreme to win.

A. If Hillary is so tough, why is Nicole whining?
B. If pointing out the facts about Hillary is being mean, God help her in the general election.

They're running for president and it's not Bernie's fault. Hillary's record can't be brought up? The way she does things to get things done? It comes off childish "He's being mean!"

She was a bit similar this morning on Morning Joe, but didn't take it nearly this far. It's clear she's doing it for a reason, twice in one day means it is not a random comment,. The reason you suggest is the only one plausible.

Lots of different factions are worried, apparently.

It was blatant. She tried some to make it look like a gender thing. Poor Hillary, being beat up by that little old Jewish guy. It doesn't compute.

She realizes that the rules for Hillary are always moving targets.

She was asked to leave the election even though she had way more support in 2012, than Bernie does Today. And she thinks gender has to do with this double standard. Good for her. It's upsetting to any woman.

She was George Bush's Director of Communications.

Why would she want to help Hillary?
