I'm starting to feel bad for Hillary Supporters

[Sancho]

59. You do understand that Bernie is having fun campaigning without being attacked....

when the billion dollar budget goes after the Democratic candidate, it's a different story. Right now, it's all candy and ice cream; just say what he wants and no one is running 24 hour ads disputing Bernie.

Bernie is preaching to the choir. Down here, the only Bernie anyone knows is Madoff. Even so, Bernie Sanders has plenty of things that the repubs can use against him, and he has not been worth their time and money so far. They want to go after Hillary, and if Sanders helps them that's fine.

Hillary is doing fine - running a smart campaign and keeping her powder dry. I'll vote for the Democratic candidate, but I would think that Sanders is the least likely of the current 4 to actually run a winning national effort.

1.) Too many issues that are not winners with the independents
2.) No organization or money to defend election manipulation or GOTV
3.) Not enough ideas to get cross-overs from women, retirees, and independents
4.) Only strong on one issue: national economics - and has some problems with his solutions
5.) Not much defense over his known problems; certainly no budget to defend with
6.) Name recognition limited to Democratic base and the NE

A populist movement is possible, but MLK had an organization and FDF had resources. Also, both MLK and FDR were strong on multiple issues, had name recognition, and had solutions for immediate crises. I don't see the parallel at this time.
