Could Bernie's ego lose the presidency and take the Senate off the table?

[SwimExpert]

Within six weeks the FBI will end Hillary's political life forever.

This ranks right up there with GWB impeachment chatter, Sheriff Arpaio arresting Obama, and sightings of the Yeti.

 

[frigidweirdo]

Because Hillary is a Democrat and Sanders isn't, perhaps.

As if Bernie not being a democrat somehow matters when it comes to his merit?

This is politics, not merit.

You have an outsider and and insider, who are the insiders going to pledge their votes to? It's about as difficult as picking your nose.

Yeah it's a shame democrats are that blindly loyal.

It's a shame both parties are that blindly loyal. It's become a ridiculous situation where the only two people who can win the election are two people who should never be anywhere near the election.

Democrats will vote Republican if they think it's a better candidate. Republicans would vote for Satan if he said he's a Republican.

No, there are Democrats who would vote Democrat if Satan stood too.

 

[Papageorgio]

Remember, when Ralph Nader did this, we got George W. Bush. Trump would be worse.

I've never understood why democrats believe they owned Nader's voters. They didn't.

Regarding the question of Sanders, democrats don't own his voters either .. thus, instead of whining about Sanders or his voters, perhaps the best solution is to put more effort in trying to attract them .. which of course means moving to the Left and a more progressive agenda.

If the Democratic Party doesn't want to do that, then Sanders may well take his voters and do whatever they think is in their best interests .. and the Democratic Party can do the same.

Point being, if the party wants those votes, they better try to earn them.

At some point, BAC..."moving" by Clinton should be seen by any rational person as nothing more than political theater. She's been given millions by the rich and powerful because they believe she will give THEM what they desire once she becomes President. Sanders is attractive to progressives because Bernie hasn't been bought like Clinton obviously has. Now the question becomes...will Sanders supporters turn out for Hillary...someone that many of them now see as having stolen a fixed Democratic race...in November? I see a problem looming for the Clinton campaign.

What neither Sanders nor his supporters don't seem to grasp is that he has been supported by large numbers of republicans who would never vote for him in the general election. They support him in an effort to weaken Clinton.

Republicans Should Help Bernie Sanders to Weaken Hillary
Republicans Should Help Bernie Sanders to Weaken Hillary, by Myra Adams, National Review

Obama, Romney, Bill Clinton, and Bush .. both of them .. were all given boatloads of money from the rich and powerful. Obama set records with Wall Street money.

Doing the bidding of the rich is how people get to become president in America.

I'm supporting Sanders, he is the best of the three. Corruption and lies are all that is left after Sanders goes away.

 

[Mac1958]

I don't know about you guys, but Bernie's "breaking bad" thing here is little unexpected to me.

I've been assuming he'd punt and get in line at some point.

You are so full of it. I am going with Sanders as are other Republicans if he gets the nomination. He is by far better than Trump and Clinton is just the worst possible candidate, however dumb Democrats will vote for her.

R-Derp seems to have forgotten that the only reason we "got" Bill Clinton that first time around was Ross Perot splitting the GOP vote.

 

[dannyboys]

Too late.
Within six weeks the FBI will end Hillary's political life forever.
Enter Biden/Pocahontas. Bernie's supporters will NEVER switch and vote for Biden. ESPECIALLY after the DEM superdelegates hand the nomination to Biden.
THINK that one through.
"Biden never did fuck all to deserve the nomination! There's no way I'm going to vote for Debbie's 'second stringers!".

:0) Let me guess .. you also 'predicted' that Obama will never be the president.

Once elected, you predicted his birth certificate, or supposed lack of, would do him in and he would be impeached. :0)

Let me guess .. you predicted that Romney would win. :0)

At least you're consistent.

I 'predicted' none of your bullshit claims.
I do predict the FBI will recommend a number of felony charges be brought against Hillary.
I predict that will be the end of Hillary politically.
I predict Debbie has already got Biden and Pocahontas in the bullpen.
I predict 90% of Bernie's supporters are going to stay home and not vote.
The small number who do vote will write bernie's name on the ballot or vote for Trump.
I predict Trump will win the Presidency.

That's even funnier then the last.

You don't know shit about Sanders or his supporters and what they will do .. just as you didn't know shit about what black voters do.

Dude, you're just looking for a gotcha' .. don't know what you're talking about. :0)

I predict that Trump is looking for a way out and will never make it to the general election. :0)

He doesn't need any exit strategy. All he has to do is quit if he wanted out, and make up any kind of excuse.

That wouldn't be good business .. especially since he's grown his own cult of morons to follow him.

He needs an excuse to get out and to blame someone else for.

It's amusing to read the posts by the Hillary ass lickers. Suuuure Trump will drop out of the race. Suuuuure.
What are you fools, like twelve?

 

[janefromalabama]

Bernie's Pie in the Sky is just that. When pressed for details on how it would work, he was noticeably unable to provide any. This New York Daily News interview from April 1 demonstrates that beautifully.
TRANSCRIPT: Bernie Sanders meets with News Editorial Board

 

[dannyboys]

Remember, when Ralph Nader did this, we got George W. Bush. Trump would be worse.

You worries are unfounded. Nader didn't run as a democrat. Sanders will eventually run out of steam. When he does that will change the numbers the media is polling right now. The vast majority of Sanders supporters will fall in line with Clinton and the "neck and neck" race the media is railing about NOW will go back to a huuuge Hillary advantage. The reason it "appears" grim for the abrasive Mrs Clinton at the moment is that the GOP side is settled and the dem side is split. The media fails to observe the obvious as it "looks" like Hillary is losing to The Donald and it gets the incredibly stupid American voters all in a tizzy and the media can sell more ad space telling this stupid lie. When it is just Clinton vs Trump we will have an accurate situation to poll the public on. Bernie won't be the dem choice even long before the convention. He won't even come close to getting the delegates to steal the nomination or force a contested or brokered convention. He is just dragging this out to get his stupid pie in the sky message in front of the media.

Or he's playing the ticket to be the nominee if Hillary is indicted. I say it's a good bet by Sanders.

I can see how you and others would believe that Sanders is hoping Clinton gets charged with a crime between now and November. I would hope that the FBI isn't playing such a cynical role. If they are then they are doing a huge disservice to American politics. If Hillary has broken a/some laws that would disqualify her as a candidate for president then they should have fast tracked her to an orange jump suit. If Obama has had a part in dragging heels of the FBI investigation then he should be charged and convicted of obstruction of justice as well.

Sure, that will happen, with a justice department run by Obama with one of his minions in charge.

All the FBI can do is investigate and "recommend" charges be brought. Again, it's DumBama's justice department, so they have the choice of charging Hillary or not.

If they decide to bring charges, she would still be qualified to run for President, but it's unlikely she would. If they decide not to charge her, then it would make the entire Democrat party look corrupt. Top FBI officials would resign. Right-wing media outlets would have a picnic with such an outcome. Hillary's name would be mud to most Americans.

I don't believe Sander's is evil enough to "hope" Hillary is indicted or recommend to be indicted. But it's a good move on his part to stay in the race in the event. Now if that would happen, and the Democrats decide to throw Biden or Warren in for the nomination, you will see such outrage by the Sander's supporters that it would guarantee a President Trump.

It is not conceivable that the FBI will have spent this much time and money without 100% knowing from day one Hillary is guilty of multiple felony crimes.
You all wait.
Once the FBI recommends charges be brought against her the Hillary ass lickers will scream he FBI is CORRUPT! and in the hands of the evil REPS!
And Hillary is "innocent until proven guilty!".
At that point it's irrelevant whether Lynch goes forward or not.
It's only relevant to Lynch's political future whether she goes ahead with charges or not.
If she is seen to be dragging her feet until after the election then her future possibility of running for the presidency is gone forever. Which BTW is Lynch's number one ambition. Has been since she was in law school.

 

[amrchaos]

Told them

It all depends on how you treat him.
Now look at the Hillary followers, they flipping out although he promised to stay in the race since New Hampshire!!

Tell me--where was all this bitching back in 2008? Hillary supporters did not give a damn about party unity back then.

This is a relative nonissue that is unnerving the acolytes. Tired of hearing this crap!

If Hillary was not such a weak candidate, there would not be any fear of losing to Trump. However, all this whining is emboldening Trumps supporters!

I have no problems with a Sanders choice .. although I still question how many who've voted for him in the primary are going to actually vote for him in the general.

I'd also be interested in who his VP choice would be. Most likely a woman, but not Elizabeth Warren I'd imagine.

Wrong on all counts Dickhead.

First, I'm not a Hillary supporter.

Second, that article comes from CONSERVATIVES .. a group I do not belong to .. but you do.

.. and yes, I believe a great many conservatives do think like they're 12 years old. :0)

Anything else?

Trump is way more crude. More crude than even George.

From the polls it looks like the voters would rather have a MAN! in the Oval office instead of a fucking fairy like Obama.
They would rather have a successful businessman in the Oval office instead of someone who has to be carefully watched 24/7 in case she tries to steal the fucking sterling silver diner services and furniture AGAIN!!!!!!

You have an outsider and and insider, who are the insiders going to pledge their votes to? It's about as difficult as picking your nose.

Yeah it's a shame democrats are that blindly loyal.

It's a shame both parties are that blindly loyal. It's become a ridiculous situation where the only two people who can win the election are two people who should never be anywhere near the election.

Agreed except on one point: Bernie could easily beat Trump.

So now you will explain why Sander's, if as you claim, could "easily" beat Trump why hasn't Debbie given Hillary the boot?
I mean it's simple logic right? It's like the DNC are committing political suicide right?
Does the DNC not comprehend, according to your reasoning, that should Bernie not get the nomination the odds that the next three or four SCJ's are going to be put on the bench by the evil REPs are 100%.
Trump is already up on Hillary by 5+ points right?
Why would Debbie do that?
Is Debbie secretly 'in Trump's HUUUUUGE pockets'?
Seems to me Debbie should be putting the DNC money on someone who, as you claim, could easily beat Trump right?
So what the fuck is going on in the 'Ramen Noodle Lady's Head?
Or are you in point of fact full of your usual bullshit?

I agree. Sanders needs to shut fhe fuck up, give up his campaign, and start supporting Mrs. Clinton. He is doing exactly what Nader did, to the detriment of our country. At this point, the only thing Sanders is interested in is his ego, not our country.
