No I must have seen that analysis on the net somewhere. And if you think the Atlantic is a rag you are delusional.

Watching PBS Newshours the pundits thought Hillary's speech was very good, even the Republican guy from the Times.

Much the same opiinions later on Washington Week, Gwen Ifill's show.

Of course.

PBS is now dependent on the Koch brothers for much of their funding.

If they published an article claiming that Bernie is a bigger liar than Hillary, then yes, they are a rag. If not, I'll give them a second chance.

Please allow me to refute your statics since the average person tends to believe what they read, especially if it happens to be true. So here is a fine example.
Quote:
Another aspect of Clinton’s weakness is less an issue of personal liabilities than of a misapprehension on her part of what political space she occupies. One of the most revealing statements of the entire campaign was her response to Sanders’ charge that “Secretary Clinton does represent the establishment. I represent, I hope, ordinary Americans.” “Well, look,” Clinton responded. “I've got to just jump in here because, honestly, Sen. Sanders is the only person who I think would characterize me, a woman running to be the first woman president, as exemplifying the establishment. And I've got to tell you that it is really quite amusing to me.”
So is she claiming not to be part of the establishment because she is running to be the first woman president?

The answer, of course, is that 25 years in the most rarefied circles of political life, countless speeches—where an hour’s work earns you five years’ worth of a middle-class income—a multimillion dollar wedding for your only child, and friendships with every manner of celebrity does tend to make that “establishment” label fit.
This entire article is worth reading and pretty much explains the antipathy of Berniacs towards Hillary.

What’s Wrong With Hillary?

The GOP is fretting about Trump, but the Democrats’ likely standard-bearer could do just as much damage to her own party.
