Still I'm taking the optimistic view of the Huerta contretemps which is it's swan song of the Sanders campaign.

I was going to use a more colorful term but never mind.

She went right under the bus. ucrdem Feb 2016 #1
But, what a way to go.. insisting she speak English? Who does that? Cha Feb 2016 #3

Including Susan Sarandon.. who does not have a good track record. Cha Feb 2016 #11
I love Sarandon as an actress but not so much as a political activist. After all, she voted Nader BlueCaliDem Feb 2016 #17
She liked the "Tweedledum & Tweedledee" meme.. he took it from BS who said it first. Cha Feb 2016 #35
Well, I like Sarandon even less now. Don't hate her but close. Still, she's an exceptional actress. BlueCaliDem Feb 2016 #46
I didn't see the Town Hall but good question for BS.. did he answer? Cha Feb 2016 #51

I have lost so much respect for Sarandon, and apparently so has Hollywood. Message to Susan: Tarheel_Dem Feb 2016 #22
Clue me in.. what does that mean? Cha Feb 2016 #37
Simply put, it means "take your ass somewhere, and sit the hell down". Tarheel_Dem Feb 2016 #39
Gracias! I just didn't know if it were some movie reference I didn't get. Cha Feb 2016 #42
