(18,998 posts)And the GOP boogie men has no bearing on the primaries do they?...except to scare people into choosing the one with the most money...because money trumps principles I guess.
But I point out to you that the SC justices are approved by congress and none can be appointed without the approval of congress...now who controlled congress when they were appointed?
So to say the Dems had nothing to do with it is not the case.
And you can bet if the next appointment is not approved by the GOP they will be rejected no matter what party is in the WH...but Dems have not had the balls to do it for some time now.
But you are dead wrong about Sanders not having support from independents and moderats...quite the opposite is true...that is his main support.
The reason they are independents is because they don't see ether party answering their concerns...And Bernie is doing that.
So then tell me...if Sanders wins the nomination does that mean the Dems donors will quit supporting the party?...because that is what you seem to say when you say he won't be able to compete financially.
That would be an admission that big money wants to decide who is the one to run and will not accept the will of the people in the party.
