The "Bernie is unelectable" meme is hogwash [View all]

[stupidicus]

and as certain as Bill Clinton's claims about Iraq wmd.

AWK AWK he's gonna wither under the concerted assault of rightwingnuts!!!!

AWK AWK the polls taken now are useless because no one knows he's a closet socialist!!!

and related to that is the false assumption imo, that there are more dirt and skeletons that will be of concern to the voters, in the Sanders closet.

What seems to be missing from the various "electibility" concerns is the undeniable fact that it's not like the opposition is "clean".

for example -- who here wants to try to make the case that without grossly and demonstrably lying, that Bernie can be burned to the extent that Trump can by the uncontested/undeniable in his record?

Last week, Sam Stein reported for the Huffington Post that none of his GOP rivals had even “completed a major anti-Trump opposition research effort.” When Trump gets to the general election, that’s going to change. Voters are going to hear plenty about not only his many bankruptcies, but also his fraudulent scams, mob ties, shady licensing deals, tax avoidance schemes and hypocritical embrace of immigrant workers for their cheap labor. Journalist Wayne Barrett has reported that some of his past associates – “I’ll hire the best people, they’ll give me the best advice” — have been caught up in drug smuggling, trafficking underage girls and various stock market swindles. We’ll hear all about the Japanese gambler who stiffed him for $4 million – “they’re stealing our money!’ – and the Mexican sweatshop workers who make his ‘Make America Great’ hats. So far, he’s gotten a pass on his supposed business acumen, but in a general election we’ll hear all about how he’d be richer today if he’d just invested his money in the stock market and spent the past 30 years lounging on a beach somewhere. http://www.rawstory.com/2016/03/donald-trump-should-enjoy-his-super-tuesday-win-because-hes-going-to-be-crushed/
