Hillary Clinton
Showing Original Post only (View all)I just watched the DNC speeches. It cracks me up that Sanders suggests he is an outsider [View all]
He is pretending to be an outsider. He has been in government for decades, and in the do nothing Senate for years--and done nothing. He is pretending to be the newbie who will shake things up. Seriously.
His speech was an attempt to distance himself from the democrats to appease his independent followers. He is all politics. The rumblings we have been hearing from democrats are true: he has disdain for democrats and voiced it in the senate often.
He is a mediocre senator who will do the same for the Presidency that he has for the Senate.
