>CNN’s dedicated Hillary Clinton fan, Van Jones, on Wednesday praised the Democrat’s performance at the debate as “dazzling” and a “tour de force.” During post-debate coverage, he cheered, “ Hillary Clinton just, at times, displaying just a dazzling mastery of policy nuance.” 

Jones rhapsodized, “Hillary Clinton's response on the clean energy question, talking about resilience and how that could be a bipartisan issue and how she could use that, that was just a tour de force.” 

Van Jones Raves Over ‘Dazzling Hillary’s Debate Performance: ‘Tour De Force’

Jones’s enthusiasm for Clinton and Democrats is well documented. On October 14, he compared the former Secretary of State to “Beyonce.”  On February 1, Jones insisted that Barack Obama is the “coolest person ever born.” 

On March 1, he enthused that in 2008, Obama had “more enthusiasm” “than any human ever.”

ANDERSON COOPER: What did you make of this? Again, I come back to the, I mean, who would have thought, and I don’t know that Hillary Clinton would have thought at the start of this race that she, at this stage of the race, would have been on the stage next to, still, arguing next to Bernie Sanders, a resurgent Bernie Sanders in Michigan. 

VAN JONES: Well, I think he certainly did not. In fact, I don't think he thought that tonight he would be standing there as a victor with the wind at his back in the way that he has. Look, you got to look at both these two candidates. A lot of their strengths, their great strengths were on full display tonight, Hillary Clinton just, at times, displaying just a dazzling mastery of policy nuance. That clean energy question, that, frankly, a lot of progressives have been concerned. No abortion questions. Not enough climate change questions, both of those on the table.

Hillary Clinton's response on the clean energy question, talking about resilience and how that could be a bipartisan issue and how she could use that, that was just a tour de force. Bernie says, "You know, campaign finance reform political revolution." No comparison between the level of policy nuance and sophistication on a key issue for Democrats. At the same time, Bernie Sanders incredibly appealing. He's back of being the cuddly curmudgeon as opposed to the cutting curmudgeon from the last debate.

And, really, I think was able bring to a different audience of that same sensibility and energy. And you saw the response in the crowd. So I think both of them had very strong nights.

Card carrying communist, Van Jones, thinks Hillary and Bernie are the best things since Soviet 5 year plans.

If Obama had a son, he could have been Van Jones.
Which is not a compliment to either of them.

Van is a shining example of why presuming -1 Standard Deviation isn’t nearly enough...

I agree with Van

Hillary seemed positively life life- so much so she could almost pass for human

Under the cleaned up persona he puts on for public view is a dirtbag, dreadlock communist who would be happy to gulag every Freeper.

Yep.

Van is probably still to controversial to get a job in the administration, but he’ll definitely have influence if Hillary wins.
