2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Indictment, flipping delegates, transcripts needed because Bernie can't win on message [View all]Vinca
(50,237 posts)59. I think if Bernie hadn't been "disappeared" by the media in the early days of his campaign,
he would probably be in the lead. Time and time again Bernie has shown that if the people get to know him, they support him. I'm a little tired of the demeaning of a man who has done the impossible: come within striking distance of one of the biggest icons in the Democratic Party. Just this morning Hillary said she will wrap up the nomination in April rather than March. Bernie might not end up the winner, but at least he put a few kinks in the coronation plan.

Makes me wonder why Sanders is seeking to "hide" behind the super delegates if they are bad.

That's a crock. Both candidates have talking pts. No indictments. Flipping delegates? Obama.
