If Bernie wins the Democrat nomination, he will be a sitting duck in debates and ads for any Republican nominee with half a brain:

Bernie, you said: “You don’t necessarily need a choice of 23 underarm spray deodorants or of 18 different pairs of sneakers when children are hungry in this country.”

So let me get this straight, Bernie . . . you're going to set up an agency or a czar to determine how many kinds of deodorant, and how much of it, can be permitted by law?

Will you do the same with toilet paper? I mean look how many brands of toilet paper there are. Shall we just set up a monopoly of one company, or better yet, a government monopoly, to produce exactly the right amount of toilet paper, or otherwise limit the amount of toilet paper that gets produced?

Are you going to hire Michael Gruber to be the guy who figures out the correct amount of toilet paper that people should be allowed to use? He's smart. He teaches at MIT. So why shouldn't we put him in charge of figuring out exactly how much of everything should or shouldn't be produced for the American people?

Have you been to socialist Venezuela lately, Bernie? They seem to have solved the problem of too many toilet paper brands. Because right now there is no toilet paper to be had at all in socialist Venezuela."

So tell me Bernie, what exactly will you do to feed starving children by reducing the amount of toilet paper we have in this country? And by the way, when you close all the toilet paper companies, how will the people who used to work at them feed their own starving children?

Bernie? . . . .

Exactly. He may not want everyone wearing the same color pajamas — but his policies will grind down the economy to where there won’t be any choice.

I’m hoping that Hillary drops out and the Democrats have no one else but Bernie. Sure, the hardcore 30% that always vote Democrat might be excited about a crazy old socialist, but the great Independent Middle of the public is going to feel stupid voting for a guy like that. I would predict a massive Republican landslide. Especially with Trump as the GOP nominee — Trump transcends normal groupings (he appeals to just about anyone who distrusts government), whereas Sanders plays only to the stupid extremists.
