Thank you Thom Hartman for your perspective on the Marissa Johnson diatribe

10. The reason so many are torn about it

Is because Hillary supporters are using it as a weapon against Bernie to try to make him look weak and unprepared and unpresidential.

If they hadn't gone there, I bet a lot of the controversy over who she was and who was really behind all this would have never presented itself.

Yes, Thom is a very good progressive who can really see things as they are.

My concerns over the Marissa event where her disrespect for the Seattle crowd and Bernie. If you want to be "heard" and actually get people to listen and maybe even agree with you, that is so not the way to do it. Interrupt yes...but do it in a way that doesn't turn the entire crowd against you. Otherwise, you get attention, but maybe not the kind you want.

I'm not sorry she did this, as Bernie used it to his advantage, as he did the NRN event, by moving forward with his policy updates and hiring Symone Sanders as his press secretary...a very smart move.
