BULL! "Sanders won at least 45 delegates, according to the New York Times' count.
Heading into Tuesday's primary in the Badger State, Sanders trailed former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton by a margin of nearly 300 pledged delegates. (Reminder: Pledged delegates are those allotted by state primaries and caucuses. Clinton led Sanders by more than 400 superdelegates, who aren't allotted but instead can vote for whomever they choose at the party's convention in July.)

Sanders, however, won big among independents who were allowed to cast ballots in Tuesday's open contest. With just over a quarter of voters identifying themselves as independents, Sanders won that bloc 71 percent to 28 percent. But among Democrats, the two candidates
ran even.

The very first requisite that's needed if one is to be a winner.......

That being said, I don't think Bernie can win against the Hildebeast. If he continues to make headway against her, "something" may happen to him.......

Will the shrill, entitled, heavy handed clintoon machine be seen as bullying a kindly old man? Will she lose more support by attacking him? Things finally getting interesting on the D side of this "campaign.......

Would be fun to watch both parties eat themselves this year. Way past time.

CN.......

This. I voted for Sanders, but I, too, am disappointed in him for these kinds of comments.

I guess I'm curious how Sanders was able to endorse and campaign for Obama ~ who had that VERY SAME PAC with no problem.


How come Sanders didn't mind it with Obama but it 'unqualifies' Clinton?


Did Sanders have a change of heart? Or is he just a hypocrite?

So he only used the "she said it first" excuse to draw boos from the crowd and to attack her. The Sanders campaign is desperate and is now using Trump tactics because Sanders was never and is not now a Democrat. When I listen to him speak, he's not just attacking Hillary Clinton, he's attacking the party.
I saw that same interview. She was asked FOUR TIMES to label him unqualified ~ and she refused.


Bernie is now getting some heat from the press - like the rest of the candidates have been getting ~ he obviously doesn't deal well with it.

Just how harshly has Bernie Sanders criticized President Obama? Let’s break it down.


But to help you decide, we broke down three notable times Sanders has been less-than-supportive of the president.

Just when did he ever "endorse and campaign for Obama"?

Of course he campaigned for Obama! And Obama campaigned for him!


Are you really that out of it?
