Batista was a right wing dictator who took over Cuba in a coup backed by the US. Never heard his dictatorship described as a democracy before

Oh, how sweet the scent of desperation is in the wake of a double-digit victory!

After a long day, I needed a genuine knee-slapper and you didn't disappoint!

I will chuckle to myself until retiring in about 4 hours.

Let's make things perfectly plain:

This disavowal is an abject failure.

1) Neither the county nor the state mentions Sanders more than exactly zero times; and

2) Neither addresses the details of the good things the Castros have done for Cuba, even though, yes, they are bloodthirsty, despotic dictators. The good things the Castros have done for Cuba are the point of Sanders' statement, by which he and I stand firmly.

Spew your right-wing talking points elsewhere when facts on are your side!
