No big surprise. They're endorsing the most liberal candidate out there. I'm also curious about Hiliary's ever growing authenticity issue. Those on the other side of the aisle are actually starting to notice how her answers always seem to change depending on what crowd she's talking to.
Like him or hate him, at least Sanders will tell you what he intends to do if elected.

Joy, rapture, tingling all over. (Excuse me while I channel Chris Matthews  ) You're right, Sanders makes no bones about being a socialist. And unfortunately there's about 40 to 45% of the electorate who will vote for him simply because of that (D) behind his name on this ballot. Some wag pundit predicted that if Sanders is the Dem candidate we might see our first 50 state sweep by the Republican clown, whoever it is. I doubt there will be a sweep by either side. Both sides are too tainted for that. |

Both sides are too tainted for that. No, there won't be a sweep no matter who gets the nomination on either side. The south will remain red with Florida and Virginia as possible exceptions. Places like New York and California are lost for the time being. They would definitely vote for Sanders. Also, I'm not all that convinced the GOP will win in the general election with Trump should he win out, even against Sanders. Cruz has a lot of similar negatives against him, but I think he would be more effective at crafting a message to rally conservatives and appeal to moderates should he get the nod then Donald. -DD |

I'm not a fan of Trump either and frankly the guy I liked best dropped out quite a while ago. Some pundits think Trump can carry New York and one or two other stalwart "Blue" states. But I also don't think he's as popular with the majority of Republicans as other wags think. On a lot of issues as late as 5 years ago Trump was as left-wing as you can get and not many of us have forgotten that.
