Clinton is crushing in every major poll. This isn't like the GoP where the wackjob candidate has taken control.

Have you seen Sanders' promotional material on social media? Hillariously bad. At least Obama's class warfare shtick was tactful.
What's really crazy is how young african americans are calling him racist for focusing on classism instead of racism as the fundamental cause of the US' problems. Really? This guy isn't liberal enough for you?
He has no shot outside of young/urban areas. Both sides really need to get a grip in terms of expectations right now.

I think it means 25% are young and naive - they see what he says about eliminating college tuition and think it will fix their current or future financial woes (unrealistically). He definitely has older supporters constituting some of that 25% as well but they are the ultra left niche which has always been there. I doubt the country/party has any more outright socialists today than it had 10 years ago.
There's no point in even having a Democratic Convention. Just put Hillary into the presidential race and save everyone the time and money and invest all those millions into something useful and relevant to the country. Short of dying there's no chance she isnt the Dem nominee.
Kinda scary to think that 25% of registered democrats are in is corner according to CNN this morning. Even they were blown away and said is this the new Democratic party post Obama. The comment was we all thought Obama pulled the party as left as it could go since Carter and now Saunders is pulling 25% of democrats.
I stopped reading when I learned that you get your news from CNN. You know it's not 1985, right?

Bernie is just the default option for dems who hate HC or are unsure of her at this point. I saw a poll where Biden came in with 12%.
I am enjoying pipermal leaning heavily on GoP buzzwords from 2007 like "socialist". Can someone send him the new ones?

Of course. Waiting to get a final tally on how many more PC commie organizations have denounced our favorite freedom fighter in the past week. If a man can't make baseless hateful statements in America, we are doing something wrong.
It is interesting though that he is getting 15,000 people out to these events to see him and he has labeled himself a socialist. I just thought our entire country was built on the free market system where anyone can have an idea, start a company and be successful. That is far different than the socialist view of the world. Many in the democratic party are showing themselves as agreeing with Sanders position thus the 25% polling numbers. I know the liberal missive is to destroy the messenger but I am only stating the facts
Most of the people in those crowds don't even know what socialism means.
They just want to vote for the crazy uncle who wants to give them free stuff.

1. how many of those 15k were paid?
2. Bernie Sanders doesn't even know what socialism means. Blindly giving money to poor people isn't socialism.

Could Bernie pander to the Obama voter base and make a big move in the polls by proposing free cell phones?

I find it hard to believe that a true dyed in the wool GoPer hasn't seen that video before today. I just assume that most McMansion dinner parties end with a few couples gathered around an iPad, laughing uncontrollably as they watch that video and finish off their glass of vintage wine.
Not all liberals are wealthy. Come on now.
“If you — you have no reason to remember, but we came out of the White House not only dead broke but in debt,” Clinton told ABC’s Diane Sawyer .
“We had no money when we got there and we struggled to, you know, piece together the resources for mortgages for houses, for Chelsea’s education, you know, it was not easy,” she added.
“First of all, we had to pay off all our debts,” Clinton continued, “which was, you know, he had to make double the money because of obviously taxes and then pay off the debts and get us houses and take care of family members.”

Rich GoPers: how can I keep my money?
rich Ds: how can I keep my money and make the middle class support poor people?
Poor people: what do I want more... Handouts or preventing others from getting handouts? Or do I vote solely on some inconsequential religious or personal ideal?
