Bernie Sanders Repeatedly Scolded For Attempting To Unionize Debate Moderators
LAS VEGAS—Saying his repeated efforts to collectively organize the panel were inexcusable, representatives from CNN told reporters Tuesday night that they had to scold Bernie Sanders on numerous occasions for attempting to unionize the moderators of the Democratic presidential debate.
Bernie Sanders Repeatedly Scolded For Attempting To Unionize Debate Moderators
Bernie is a tool. It's almost as if he has been pre-programed with the socialist hand book, and can't ever stray from it's contents.
…..and I love the last line in the article about having to keep reminding Hillary that the moderators were, in fact, allowed to make eye contact with her. LOL.
If by pre-programmed you mean he's pretty much stood for and said the same things for the majority of his political career then yeah I guess he is. I'll take that over kowtowing to the whatever the latest polls say he should though.

Yeah, at least he stays true to himself. You have to give him that much.

I was watching an analysis of the debate and had to agree with one point that was made. There was a moment involving a comment made by Mr. Sanders, that did more to affect the landscape of the Democrat side than anything else. He rode out like a white knight essentially defending, and all but exonerating Hillary of the mess with her e-Mail.
With that statement he kinda derailed himself. Hillary's biggest flaw (outside her cold unlikable nature), was her questionable trustworthiness. Instead of using it against her, Sanders all but personally guaranteed her character, with his reputation as collateral. Apparently this set the tone and by all accounts she came out the big winner.
This also has another repercussion. As much as I make fun of the DNC, they aren't blind. In almost every poll, Hillary loses to the top Republican candidates, while Joe Biden Beats them all. This may encourage the DNC to 'uncrown' her majesty in favor of Biden (and Biden is 1000x more likable than Hillary).
Just curious as to your thoughts.
+West Kagle I don't see it as him defending her at all. The Justice Department already cleared her and even initial civil cases haven't turned up anything (you can see at least one of the court docs here: http://www.scribd.com/doc/280501559/Judicial-Watch-Inc-v-U-S-Department-of-State). There are two people wanting more… reporters, who I believe have a legitimate and rationale reason for looking into it, and the GOP…. or Fox News… however you want to put it. The later are just making noise. I say that because under ole GW's time in office THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED. Rove and the other Bush underlings used private RNC mail servers and deleted over 22 million emails (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bush_White_House_email_controversy). And while it got media attention and some Dem's made a ruckus it was no where near this level. So really, IMO, he just said what I've been thinking. Now don't get me wrong… I'm an IT guy and I think that was horribly stupid but I'm more upset from an IT position than some policy position. I'm really over it.
All polls taking place during the debate showed Sanders the winner… the networks all claimed Clinton the winner (if there really is a "winner" in these things). So I don't think he hurt himself in public opinion.
I personally dig Biden. He's like Trump in that he's pretty free with his mouth, except his contains actual substance. He's a decent statesman and having been VP he knows what the job would entail. Plus I hate the idea of another Clinton or Bush being in the White House.
