The Bernie Bros are not just on DU. brush Feb 2016 #101

Neither are the Wickersham Bros. Warren DeMontague Feb 2016 #120

If elected, I'll give President Sanders less than a month before his worshippers become Liberal_Stalwart71 Feb 2016 #102

It'll be much more fun watching Hillary "work with" the GOP congress as they immediately begin Warren DeMontague Feb 2016 #118

Another personal attack by Bernie "I'll Never Go Negative" Sanders. SunSeeker Feb 2016 #52

He is just after the true Hillary. She said herself in Sept. 2015 that she is a moderate. The Wielding Truth Feb 2016 #79

Sanders is not addressing the issues when he makes an attack like that. SunSeeker Feb 2016 #103

It is her own labeling that is in question. She said that if you think she is a moderate, she is. The Wielding Truth Feb 2016 #142
