Maybe Hillary should congratulate Bernie for getting the endorsement of one of the Keating 5.

Sanders sounds so unintelligent and I don't get how he is even considered credible. He started talking about billionaires and they have nothing to do with what happened in Flint, it was the state government that was at fault.

And people wonder why minority voters aren't impressed with his candidacy.

I'm sure Michigan voters have no problem with Sanders opposing the auto bailout.
Just ask President Romney.

So did Maria Cantwell, Byron Dorgan, Russ Feingold, Debbie Stabenow, Jon Tester, and Ron Wyden.

Are they running for President?

@mmurraypolitics

In sum: Sanders went in to deliver an uppercut on trade; ended up with rough counter-punches by Clinton on auto bailout and Ex-Im

He needs to keep it up. He has nothing to lose and even if it makes him look bad, it makes her look bad as well because it brings out that shrill harpy in her that everybody knows and loves. She can't resist. Being an angry old man is part of his appeal. She doesn't enjoy the same advantage.

Stay classy dude.

As a neutral observer here, I find both candidates to be well prepared but Sanders is a little bit too agressive, especially since Clinton is not really hitting him as hard as she theoretically could.

I also think that there is a philosophical and practical disconnect in Sanders' principles. He was willing to vote against (an admittedly flawed) car bailout bill, because of his principles, and risk putting millions out of work?!?

He did not vote against the auto-bailout, he voted against the Wall Street Ballot.

Again, he voted against the Bush auto bailout.
He voted for the Obama auto bailout a few months later.
