re: #55 HappyWarrior

I’ve noticed that too. I mean if that’s the kind of campaign that he wants to run, suit yourselves but don’t cry about how virtually no one in the Democratic Party establishment supports you when you’re shitting on the hard work that their standard bearer (Obama) has done. Bernie hasn’t helped with this himself when he insists he’d be a better racially uniter.

I laugh when I see many of the Berners suggesting that Nina Turner would be the ideal VP for Bernie. The woman has won one statewide election (ran unopposed.) She’s another one that the Democratic party put a lot of time and effort into promoting. She was appointed to her first stint in the Ohio Senate—and moved quickly up the ranks to Minority Whip. But, rather than continue working in the Senate, she decided to run for SoS, and got trounced (by the horrible Jon Husted.)

Edited to correct—she has won NO statewide elections.

Oh, and talking about crapping on supporters. Bill Clinton supported her SoS run, then she very vocally ditched Hillary to support Bernie (which is fine, if that’s what she wanted to do) and has talked smack about Hillary as a “Goldwater Girl” and about the Crime Bill crap as well as saying Bernie is the best candidate to carry on Obama’s legacy. Say what?
