As negatives pile up on Hillarys doorstep, the Democratic left is flocking to Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders. According to Quinnipiac, Sanders has gone from 4% of the Democratic primary vote in April to 8% in April to 15% in their May 28 survey.
While Hillary still has 57% of the primary vote (down from 60% last month), Sanders is moving up fast. The Vermont Senator is eclipsing former Maryland governor Martin OMalley, former Virginia senator Jim Webb, and former Rhode Island governor Lincoln Chaffee, each of whom gets only 1% of the vote.
Among self-described very liberal Democrats, Hillary leads Sanders by only 61-28.
While Hillary flirts with the Pacific Rim trade treaty and the Keystone pipeline, both strongly opposed by the left, Sanders is gaining by hammering away with strongly liberal positions.
Some have dismissed Sanders because of his age. But hes not that old. (And appears less so the older I get). He is only 73, but six years older than Hillary and is in fine physical and mental shape.
With Sanders breaking out of the anti-Hillary pack in the Democratic primary, Mrs. Clinton now faces real opposition in the primary. His very lack of funding appeals to voters disgusted by the Clinton machines total immersion in corrupt money.
Here comes Bernie
Well ... at least the next President will be fiollowed by an R
Yeah, I’d sure be putting all my chips on Bernie Sanders.
I want Sanders to run as a 3rd party candidate. He’ll draw off a lot of the psycho-left vote from the Hildabeast.
Of course they are. The Dims are socialists, at the very least. Hillary is a socialist, but with too much baggage. Hence, the Dims are starting to look at Bernie Sanders; but if Fauxcohantas declares, they will jettison Bernie and embrace her like a starving man suddenly presented with a bowl of gruel.
Dickie Morris finds another thing to be wrong about.
If Sanders gains more traction look for Lie-a-watha to declare. She will count coup on Comrade Bernie
“Some have dismissed Sanders because of his age. But hes not that old. (And appears less so the older I get). He is only 73, but six years older than Hillary”
And he’d be 5-6 years older than Reagan was when he was too old to be elected President. Right, libs?
One can always depend on the left to coordinate the message, the candidate and the endless stream of junior high school propaganda to bring the election to the Democrats.
IMHO
More likely Hilary drops out and the other first lady runs.
Yes, her.
There’s nothing like proving we’re both sexist and racist.. and anti-royalist.
The Dems have a fine bunch of Criminals and Crazies running
“Dems turning to Bernie Sanders.”
Kind of like how a dog will return to it’s vomit.
Guffaw!
Hence the rape fantasy story.
This is history all over again ...
A summer of non-stop black rioting in big cities, the Dems nominate an aging socialist kook, while Repubs run a law-and-order candidate that white voters flock to ...
1968, here we come!!!
So the communist is gaining on the skank?
oof !
Good. George McGovern 2.0
