It never fails that about halfway through the thread when no one has a reasonable rebuttal to DanTex the responses devolve into personal attacks on Dan's character. Just in: Bernie is not perfect-He has vulnerabilities. If he makes it to the GE, it will make what has been said in the primary seem like slow pitch softball.

Huh? Why is this so complicated? I said we're all on the same side. Which we are. DanTex Jan 2016 #16

Hillary supporters have been setting up Sanders supporters with that question. Spitfire of ATJ Jan 2016 #18

Not sure how "will you vote for the Dem nominee" could possibly be a set-up. Particularly in DanTex Jan 2016 #19

It's a tactic.... Spitfire of ATJ Jan 2016 #20

In the future you should avoid the question altogether to avoid being accused of baiting.... Spitfire of ATJ Jan 2016 #32

Your and my definition of "bash" is apparently different. Health Wagon Jan 2016 #27

And vice versa. I post facts about Bernie, people don't like it, accuse me of stuff. Meh. DanTex Jan 2016 #29

Like what? Health Wagon Jan 2016 #33
