Rachel Maddow assumes Rush's role for the Dem Party: King Maker [View all]

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Omaha Steve (a host of the General Discussion forum).

There is so much good that will come of Bernie staying in, arguably the most important reason of all being exposing and educating Americans on how we select a candidate. Every state is different and many elections have had disputed results on the our side; we were thought of the pure party and above election shananagins. I can't wait until the California primary and hundreds of thousands discover they are left out of the process for mistakenly registering with the Independence Party. People didn't know so this is a learning experience. But they won't learn a damn thing if Bernie drops out.

Then you have myopic Rachel slamming Bernie for not bowing out. Rachel is of the elitist, well educated 10% class Thomas Frank is calling out in "Listen Liberal."



Please note: King Maker is sexist but Queen maker is more sexiest. I know the latter is true because I read it on DU.
