(2,061 posts)has clearly been a fatal decision. A rookie politician could have told him it would disqualify him from the start.
People go around joking about "That's disqualifying."
But this move by the Sanders campaign was a move of self disqualification. Any shot of him being able to win went out the door with his early hires. Hard for me to believe they were the only ones willing to work for him. The residue after the remaining candidates pulled in the top campaign people. Nope. It was a thought out decision. A very poor one. Killed his campaign before it even started.
You hire people like Sirota, Turner, and Gray for the general election. Hiring such questionable people for a primary is simply a poor move. Their highly questionable character will always follow them around and they will make themselves the story.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
