Like Lenin endorsing Marx. Like Stalin endorsing Mao.

Be careful what you wish for, Bernie - you just might get it.

“Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) has become the latest high-profile progressive to endorse Cook County Commissioner Chuy García’s challenge to Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel (D).”

When you get to the left of Emanuel you’re in danger of falling off the edge of the world.

Why should the people in Chicago give a flip about who Vermont Bernie endorses?

Reds to the rescue. Sanders is a Progressive in the same sense that Stalin was a “socialist”.

Not much of a choice for Chicagoans. But Chewy is a flamming butt DeBlasio in the making. The Sanders endorsement only proves it and should clinch it for Deadfish.
