US Democratic candidate Joe Biden keeps on "rolling out the gaffes" however, debating Bernie Sanders is similar to "wrestling smoke" according to the Daily Telegraph's Tim Blair. ...
Mr. Blair told Sky News host Chris Kenny, politically "Bernie Sanders is alot harder to lay a glove on" than his opponents.
"He's talking about a paradise, a socialist kind of super world where all is free and fair... How do you argue against invisibility like that?"

1.) He deflects (Castro had a great literacy initiative to save face for Castro) like there is no tomorrow. When Anderson Cooper stayed on Bernie about Castro, Bernie did the old commie routine of Whatabout as in whatabout Trump doing this or that? Tu Quo.
2.) He dodges questions. Questioned on CNN: will you take Bloomberg's money if you get the nomination, in a yes or no format. We don't need it was the answer from Bernie. Not a flat out, unequivocal no. Gives him wiggle room.
3.) Bernie is all about what he or his movement is going to do, but decades in the Senate and zilch to show for it, even with Obama having dominance in the House and Senate.
4.) Bernie will blame others for nothing happening in #3.
5.) AC asked him how he was going to pay for everything and he said "I don't know" then magically on the debate stage yesterday Bernie says it will be paid for but dodged again and says go to his website (because he doesn't know) and his website is vague and cannot predict the future (a creation of large volume trading he says he will tax, corporations fleeing, etc) so he gives the appearance of an answer without actually providing one.
6.) If all else fails and he can't dodge or whatnot, he will either get red-faced and talk louder or retreat to going after the 1% in fiery speech, how they are the cause of ever yone's troubles, and they somehow have enough money for every dream he's ever had in a rally the troops in a pièce de ré·sis·tance fashion.
Bernie is a scumbag on a mission. Hes got his idiot force behind him believing all the promises
Bernie Sanders is like a snake that tries to strike and evade simultaneously.
Learn the snakes’ moves, pin it, crush it.
Vaguery is a chief weapon of his, as he is always sure there’s plenty of money lying around...somewhere...but doesn’t want to prove it and gets testy if pressed on it.
Just my 2 cents.
One thing I have noticed is that Bernie’s followers all over the net sure act like everyone is out to get poor old Bernie, is mean to him, is biased against him, and is picking on him.
Always the victim.
What occurred last night was not a debate.
Want a debate?
Stick all the candidates in a small room and seat them at a round table.
Then let them go at it by themselves for two hours.
That I would pay to watch.
Bernie struggles with the age 30+ vote.
And thankfully, 30+ are far more likely to vote.
He’s a COMMIE! Not a socialist. Keep calling him a COMMIE. Communist. He’ll blow up and get nasty. The only person that can take him down is Trump.
What I am going by is videos of him on stage one on one with hosts asking him questions, going back and forth with others in interviews past and present, and at other times.
Trump stays on it, pins, and crushes.
We haven’t had a real debate in generations.
I like my idea. Stick ‘em in a room, no bloody so-called moderators, and let the candidates go at for a couple of hours.
Make it pay-per-view and we can put the prceeds toward the national debt.
Back in the day,1928 they wrote a song, which forms the basis of Bernie’s socialist /communist campaign. If you listen to that song, you would swear that’s where Bernie sourced his talking points::
You can hear it here:
“The Big Rock Candy Mountains”

Ok Bernie, whatever. Bernie will lose in the General and if he is not in the General (because his nomination was stolen—again) the Dem party will split and lose for at least a generation. All good.
Thunderdome
6 rats enter, common sense leaves
Bloomberg is trying to buy the nomination with his own money.
Sanders is trying to buy the nomination with taxpayer money.
I was an old-time debater, and I know how the President can get under Bernie’s skin.
But, that is my secret until _after_ the primaries... ;-)
Moderators are a strong negative because they try to set their own agenda—nobody elected the moderators!
If the moderator says something stupid or biased the candidates have to waste time dealing with _that_.
If we want to stop the candidates from blabbing on forever, wire them up to an electronic shock machine. When they go over their time they get a mild shock, ten seconds later, moderate shock—a minute over and they catch fire! ;-)
Sanders has spent a lifetime defending the indefensible. He’s gotten good at it. It can’t be defended, so the method is to dodge, change the subject, answer a different question, or talk even louder. He’s gotten so good at it that he usually even sounds rational- - - that is, until you actually look at what he says. Unfortunately, his supporters never get to the last stage.
“AC asked him how he was going to pay for everything and he said “I don’t know....”
Driving full speed straight into the communist sh!thole.
