Is it just me, or are the bernie folks really nasty today.

40. It was bad for Hillary supporters in 2008, or so I thought, until this.

Bernie looked terrible last night. When he was attempting to answer the abortion question, he railed about Trump and Cruz being on the crazy train, and he kept shouting in a creepy way, 'WOMEN ARE PUNISHED? WOMEN ARE PUNISHED?", before brushing it off women's issues in favor of his spiel. In contrast, Hillary was at her absolute best, calm, determined, completely on point. She did not shift it to another issue.

The narrative today is Trump vs. Hillary. After all the other crap Trump has pulled, Tweety, of all people, did him in last night. He may win the nomination, but he's over. No woman who is the least big left of sanity will forget what Donald Trump said about punishing women, whether or not he tried to pull it back. Damage done, game over. Even GOP pundits were groaning at his poll numbers with women.

Sanders was outmatched by Rachel Maddow and outplayed by Hillary in the response to Trump. He seemed angry last night. He shouted during the entire interview. His face was bright red. That he didn't want to be there was blindingly obvious (and it wasn't even an in-person interview).

In sharp contrast to both of the shouting men, Hillary allowed herself to be tracked down - in person - and gave Rachel a lot of extra time, combined with an extremely mannered response.

Note to Bernie: women's issues are economic issues. Give us a raise from .72 on the dollar to the whole dollar and watch the income gap narrow significantly.
