He has too many Communist and Marxist relationships in his past, and support of Castro and the Sandinistas. His biography is loaded with controversy. And the media, in its relentless quest for $$$$ wants a horserace, and so to date, no real vetting on Sanders. But the Republicans have done their oppo research and are keeping their powder dry just in case.

Bernie wouldn't stand a chance.
