Politics ain't beanbag.
Anyone care to hazard a guess why the Republican frontrunner has been salivating at the prospect of Bernie being the Democratic candidate?

All the rightwing talks about is Hillary Clinton and 'Big Dawg' Bill's schlong.

You mean hazzard a guess about a myth that you made up?

WTF are you talking about? Donald Trump has said numerous times that he wants to run against Bernie.

Go troll someone else, Tom.

If Trump wins against Sanders, so be it. It's democracy in action and we probably deserve what we get. Still there is no strong case for Hillary based on her merits is there? That is sad commentary and a problem in itself.

Iowa and NH polls are tied, she is leading nationally but for how long?

Popular support vs. Political support, where does she stand there? I am not going to be upset at all if she were to win the nomination. It's the establishment rigging the process in her favor that bothers me. If she is such a shoo-in, why the behind the scenes shenanigans?

I've never seen where he said that, but so what if he did?

All the hard evidence points to the fact that Bernie is way more electable than her. He polls much better than her against Trump.

Think about it Bob.

When Bernie entered the race he had name recognition in the single digits while Hillary is a household word. In spite of that he has now pulled up from a 50-60 point deficit to almost tied with her. And he is almost tied with her in fund raising even though she has mostly big donors and Bernie has ham and eggers like me sending him $25 or $50 bucks a pop.

The facts are Hillary Clinton is under performing big time. She is nowhere near matching the hype that has been built up about her. She is the Tim Tebow of Presidential Candidates.

Clinton attacks produce windfall of campaign cash for Sanders

Kneel and pray Hillary, and try not to talk.
