Bernie Sanders is starting to get the everybody hates Ted Cruz treatment.
The ongoing battle between Sanders and the Democratic National Committee has revealed not only the extent of Sanderss contempt for Democratic officials, but that the feeling is mutual. His refusal to take a harder line against supporters who have issued violent, sexist threats against Nevada Democratic Chair Roberta Lange, along with his suggestion that they were justified in their anger, has brought condemnation from prominent Democrats and emboldened them to make harsher criticisms of Sanders and his brand of populist, anti-establishment politics. Barney Frank has gone so far as to suggest that this is why Sanders is something of an isolated figure in the party, a la Cruz....

It has always been my opinion that Hillary will never be indicted for her mishandling of sensitive or classified materials.
Vote for him or don’t vote for him, ok? Let your conscience be your guide. It has nothing to do with what I say or don’t say.
And stop being such a drama queen.
But point of fact is that Cruz was the insider in this race (along with the other 15 or 16) and Trump was not.
I was thinking along the same lines when I first read this that the situation is not very comparable.
Also, Bernie still has a chance at the nomination outright, as to where Cruz was pretty much eliminated long before he got out.

Go Sanders. Let’s break the DC corruption, then have it out honestly between communism and capitalism.
Bad news on Hot Air today. Joe DiGenova says the fix is in and Justice Dept. wont indict.
At least corrupt banana republics don’t pretend to stand for freedom.
There’s no connection between Cruz or Sanders - in any way, thank God. But the connection between Trump and Sanders is there. Sanders is an upstart, a populist on the left, who stole Hillary’s thunder. A bit like what Trump did to Bush.
That figures, corrupt par for the course.
Since Trump is attempting to put good people on the Supreme Court, I look forward to him putting good patriotic people in the Dep't of Justice. THAT is probably what the whole DC cabal is afraid of as they should be.

Very true, which makes this story in the OP, fiction.

I believe we have always known that the Justice Department will not indict.
But the more critical thing is whether the FBI will recommend for an indictment. That would come first anyway.
This FBI Director is supposed to be known to be npo-nonsense and a straight shooter. If he truly is, and honors hos oath, then we may see that recommendation.
If that happens, she will be toast whether the Justice Department actually indicts her or not.
Everyone will know that it is just a political thing...but she will be judged harshly in the court of public opinion accordingly and such a recommendation should finish her.
The girls were watching “Supernatural” reruns last night ;-).
It'll all depends on what the Obama administration decides it wants with regard to who gets the Dem nomination. That's not clear yet.
But my bet is on Biden (possibly with Warren as VP) taking over when Hillary falls low enough in the polls that it becomes clear Trump will win.
The FBI will simply be the means to force her to drop out for "health" or similar fabricated reasons.
How did you come to the conclusion that this site isn’t?
People will hate on Cruz until he does the right thing and endorses Trump.
The Cruzes, father and son, are not Christians.
