Bernie Sanders busts out some dance moves in L.A. visit

Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders toggled between the serious and the not-so-serious on a California campaign swing Wednesday, dancing a few steps to a "Saturday Night Fever" song on a TV talk show, then denouncing Republicans a while later for "racist attacks against the Mexican people."
A day after he and Hillary Rodham Clinton dominated the first Democratic presidential debate in Las Vegas, the crusty Vermont senator took his turn at the image-softening custom of the television talk show, chatting with comedian Ellen DeGeneres a few weeks after Clinton did the same.
Boxers or briefs, DeGeneres wanted to know. "Briefs," the 74-year-old candidate answered a few minutes before his rhythmically challenged rendition of John Travolta's "Stayin' Alive" dance steps.
From the Burbank television studio, Sanders dashed to the Avalon Hollywood, a nightclub packed with supporters who cheered point after point of his campaign agenda for more than 45 minutes.
