Be great to see all those folks make their way to Milwaukee—to watch the Demonrats steal the nomination from Bernie!
Best Democratic nomination season ever...

He has real support. Most of the other seem to have media support.

Heres the good news: Every one of those attendees is going to be spitting mad when Bloomberg steals the nomination from Bernie.

All those young people clamoring for free stuff. Yo, young people clamoring for free stuff!, who do you think is going to pay for all that free stuff you're clamoring for!?
Morons. They're like mice. They don't understand why the cheese is free.

Maybe not an overflow crowd, but they all want our guns. Seriously.

Yes indeed. None of the other Dems can draw that sort of crowd. Not Bloomberg. Not Buttplug. Not Cherokee Jane.
There is a real hunger at BOTH end of the political spectrum to give the establishment the heave-ho. And we had all better pray that our side gets it done first.

“Not even an overflow crowd...”
But a legitimate crowd, nonetheless. But the Seattle area has been extreme left-wing for generationsthink the Wobblies. What struck me was the contrast between the looks on the faces between a Trump rally and the Sanders one. In the second picture there is only one person with even a hint of a smile. Instead you see expressions of devotion. At a Trump rally you see smiles and happiness. Yet Trump supporters are the ‘mind-numbed robots’.
Bernie supporters, like us will crawl over broken glass to vote for him. But I honestly think there are more of us than them. Certainly hope so.

This is from an AP story bragging about the crowd size while failing to mention the free concert that brought many of them there.

It looks like a very big crowd to me.
That’s a scary size crowd. That Sanders can draw that many is not good.

Oregon and Washington state are the centers of Communism, so it’s no surprise he has a lot of supporters there.
