The "Big Dog" is yapping

[SHRED]

He's attacking Bernie's disgust of corporate influence and corruption of our political system. This is right out of the Rove playbook. It's called "attack them where you are weak."

A dumb move in my opinion as it focuses more attention on the Clintons and their friends like Robert Rubin.

Please proceed Mr. President!


Bill Clinton Accuses Bernie Sanders Of Living In A 'Hermetically Sealed Box' - http://huff.to/1Xcxqb6

1. Project much, Mr Clinton? n/t

[SHRED]

3. And Bernie is not even taking off his gloves

If Bernie keeps getting pushed like this I hope he starts naming names, dates, and details. Oh how they would howl.

[merrily]

2. Attack your opponent on their biggest strength and your biggest weakness: Swiftboating.

Bush deserts; Kerry has purple hearts: attack Kerry as a military coward.

Sanders attacks the influence of big business on politicians; Hillary seems bought; attack Sanders about big business.

Will it work?

5. i would almost say that Bernie has more balls than Kerry...and Gore, too for that matter

he might, hopefully, be the one lefty that has the fabled 'Teflon' coating...

and the more crap they throw at him the more obvious it becomes that it doesn't stick because IT'S ABOUT THE MESSAGE and he just will not back off...

I doubt that Bernie will let the attacks get in the way of his message, and should he feel the opposition was getting any traction with their attacks and thereby diluting the message he will strike back in a fashion that they will regret...

see the YouTubes of Bernie and Greenspan for a sample...HRC has it lucky so far

6. She is damn lucky...

He doesn't want to attack because she has already played the gender card and will do it even more if he speaks truth to power about her connections to Wall Street, Military Industrial Complex, Health Insurance companies, etc.

This is why I wish Elizabeth Warren decided to run in this campaign. She could go after Hillary on the facts without worrying that the Clintons try to play the gender card on her. The facts are not on Hillary's side. She is a corrupt politician just like her husband, just like Obama, just like the Bushes, and so many other corrupt male politicians in both major parties. Her gender does not absolve her of repeatedly siding with the warmongering corporations of this country.

9. Politically, he is stronger. He has done it on his own,

Politicians always have to compromise some, but he has stayed relatively close to his principles, which are, IMO, good, solid principles.

Sanders is not Teflon in the exact same sense as Bill Clinton. A lot of truth was thrown at Bill Clinton, while people have to spin and twist and lie to throw stuff at Sanders. Sanders shakes off the stuff thrown at him because the real stuff doesn't amount to bird poop (his hair, raises his voice during debates, etc.) or because it's fake stuff that most people see right through.

4. There's another debate this week so I'm not very worried.

7. 'Hermetically Sealed Box? Looks like Bill should jump in one.

8. Wasn't it this kind of rhetoric from Bill

that caused her to lose to Pres. Obama? Maybe is doesn't really want her to win. Big Dawg needs to stay up on the porch.
