If that be the case, I hope he was kissed first...
Haven't kept track lately... No two stories alike from the media...
Trying to avoid the hype of who's doing what to whom in this particular
political race... The drama from both parties is overwhelming... Geesh!!!

IT ONLY TAKES A DROP OF INK TO OFFER FODDER FOR ONE TO THINK................Jo

The DNC sure has...from the moment he declared his candidacy. At first they treated him like a nonentity, a quaint little bit of comic relief in the coronation of their bought-and-paid-for, corporatist, establishment Queen. Anyone who does not at least recognize that Sanders has run a masterful campaign is completely full of shit. A year ago, 9 out of 10 Americans had never even heard of Bernie Sanders...he was completely ignored by the press and the DNC, and Shillary had a SIXTY POINT lead on him in the polls...Sixty points...in a race where an 8-point lead is often considered a landslide.

Then a funny thing happened, Bernie started catching fire. People liked that he wanted to get money out of politics. They liked his plans concerning health care and education. They liked that he had the good judgment to vote against the war in Iraq. They liked that his campaign was funded almost exclusively by voters, to the tune of an average of $27 per donation, and he started out-raising the Queen with her Super PAC and her thousands of dollars per plate fundraisers with the uber-wealthy.

And then Debbie Wasserman Schultz and the DNC decided enough was enough. They had already coronated their Queen (funny how they call themselves "democrats")...there was no way they were going to let an independent senator from Vermont steal their show, no matter how unpopular Queen Shillary is with the rank-and-file Democratic and independent voters. So they played their little tricks...to lock Bernie's team out of their own voter database...to schedule debates on weekends to keep Bernie's message from being heard by the fewest number of Americans as possible (while the GOP debated in hyped-up prime-time circuses that the DNC loved because they thought they were building a fear for Trump they thought would give the Queen an easy win in the general). Sanders, as well as O'Malley, Chaffee, and Webb, got shafted by the DNC. As I said, they picked the Queen from day one, and they did everything in their power to mute any other voices that could sway the voters to another candidate. I was a Democrat until about two months ago, but now I'm done...I'm not saying that will never vote for Democrats again, but they've lost my straight-ticket loyalty forever.
