In reply to the discussion: Hillary Clinton’s camp is fearful of Bernie Sanders [View all]NanceGreggs
(27,835 posts)Hillary is not afraid of Bernie.
Bernie is not afraid of Hillary.
And no (D) candidate who winds up running will be afraid of either one of them, or of any other (D) candidate.
This kind of crapola is written and promoted by people who have absolutely nothing of consequence to say. Therefore, their only recourse is to gin-up nothing and pretend it's something.
"Insiders familiar with the Clinton campaigns thinking ..." That kind of "reportage" is right up there with "some people are saying".
And then there's the caption under Bernie's photo: "Striking fear in the Clinton camps heart: Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont."
Reminds me of all the over-the-top bullshit headlines that pop up on FaceBook et al: "Learn why plastic surgeons HATE this Iowa housewife!" "Find out why grocery store chains are TERRIFIED of this Wisconsin farmer!" "Read about how the frozen food industry is PETRIFIED by this Maine fisherman!"
The only people who are afraid of anyone on the (D) side are the Clown Car Clan - and everyone knows it, and everyone knows why.
If you are a Bernie supporter, an HRC supporter - or plan to support another (D) who enters the race, SUPPORT your candidate by pointing out their positions on the important issues, by volunteering for their campaigns, by donating whatever funds you can afford.
Buying into the propaganda being spewed by so-called "journalists" serves only one purpose - to lend relevance to people who have none.
