(1,399 posts)And IF a person had a desperate need to believe that there was some reason why Sanders, if he chooses to run, will not be the frontrunner for the 2020 nomination (and here I speak not in terms of whether he is the best candidate, only to the fact that he is in a position similar to where Secretary Clinton was in 2008 and 2016, with an on the ground organization already established and a healthy war chest), to believe he has some skeleton in his closet that will bring him down before 2020 ever gets here OR IF a person wants to believe their past use of Burlington College to smear Sanders was justified, they CAN take the Washington Post's observation as giving them a glimmer of hope that "one day" this will take Sanders down.
All I have done is explain how grand juries work, a subject on which I actually have some knowledge, what is the MOST LIKELY situation here, and why I believe the treating of this "glimmer of hope" as a fact, or even a reasonably likely possibility, is motivated by a desire to trash Sanders (a violation of the TOS) as opposed to a desire to discuss possible obstacles in our mutual efforts to see to it that we reverse the disaster of 2016. In return, I have had snide comments questioning whether I am even an attorney, a massive "look at the squirrel" effort to shift the focus to whether VTDigger has an anti-Bernie agenda (as opposed to what is the most likely reason for Ms. Loyd's appearance), and alert stalking.
I'm done with this subject.
