Think Progress has been remarkably evenhanded in regards to Clinton and Sanders, imho.

Y'all are going to need a fleet if you keep throwing everyone under the bus who disagrees with you.

Than blame the rag that that printed it. You really just don't give a damn about the truth. The truth is you love liars because they tell you what you want to hear.
Just the fact that Sanders is making a contest out of this shows what a POS she is.

Says the fellow who supports unquestionably the biggest liar in this campaign, Donald Trump. 76% of questionable claims made by Trump have been judged Mostly False, False or Pants on Fire. This is the greatest level of falsehood ever measured in a political candidate.

To DJ, words like 'truth' are just sticks to beat people with. Nothing he says has the slightest thing to do with who does or doesn't actually tell lies. When it comes to talking politics, he's stuck at the 'trash talk' level.

Bernie Sanders donations website crashes after New Hampshire win

http://www.dw.com/en/bernie-sanders-...win/a-19038461

Quote:
During his victory speech in New Hampshire, Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders asked supporters to donate to his campaign, causing his fundraising website to crash, and raising a quarter of a million dollars in an hour.

"I am going to New York City tonight, and tomorrow, but I’m not going to New York City to hold a fundraiser at Wall Street. Instead, I’m going to hold a fundraiser right here, right now, across America," the Vermont Senator said amid the cheers of a crowd of supporters, before asking them and viewers elsewhere in the country to go on his website and donate to his campaign.

"Berners," as some of his supporters have been dubbed, responded immediately, submerging Sanders‘ donation platform with traffic, which considerably slowed their transactions.

Bernie Sanders's presidential campaign raised $2.6 million in just the first few hours after winning the New Hampshire primary, according to Wednesday reports.

The Vermont senator has lately been outraising his rival, Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton, and his huge victory in the Granite State appears to be giving him even more of an edge.

In the hours since polls closed in New Hampshire Tuesday at 7 p.m. ET, the Sanders campaign raised $5.2 million, aides told reporters Wednesday. The average contribution was just $34.
Power to the People!
