scheduled on or near major holidays, that's when.

Tho I doubt she'd admit it publicly.

She actually told them that?

Do you have a link to backup your assertion?

Thank you in advance.

maybe she didn't even need to tell DWS "do this", but I tell you what.

If Hillary wants more debates, why don't you get your candidate to call DNC and
ask for them, then do a presser and come out for more debates, like O'Malley and
Sanders have done? i.e. lift the DNC exclusionary rule.

Until Hillary does something like this ^ I remain convinced -- based on her conspicuous
silence -- that she's running away from the debates, not welcoming more of them.

and Defensive on behalf of the billionaire class. No surprise there. I would venture a guess and say that nearly All, if not All...Corpo-Media's Highly Paid Actors are worth Waaaaay more than Sanders...
Her whole line of questioning was just "off"...can't put my finger on it.
But then, we are talking about Alan Greenspans Wife.

to see Mrs. Greenspan give him more than 2 minutes of air time.
The bobbled-headed-talking-heads employed by corporate owned
media keep making themselves look like fools. It was no surprise to see
that just an hour later a Clinton surrogate, Ed Rendell, was given air time to
say that the polls are wrong.
Make no mistake, HRH, HRC is the corporate choice and nothing will
be allowed to change that.

The perfect embodiment of insipid "horse race" journalism, and why the MSM ca't be taken seriously. I like the fact he didn't play along one tiny bit.

The more of that crap you watch, the more low-information one becomes.

No matter how any reporter tries to phrase a question, Bernie is already on top of it and deflecting before they even finish. With Mrs. Greenspan, he was already shaking his head when she started the "What word would you use to describe Hilary Clinton"
She barely had 3 words out.

His honest, straight forward talking is really catching fire in a big way.

I think it's his to lose. Andrea looked so disappointed that she couldn't get him to take the bait! And she wouldn't let up. He keeps the focus on the important things. And he is controlling the narrative. Msm can't stand it and I love that! When you're right, you don't have to attack others.

I Agree! There's 3 things money can't buy.
1. Love
2. Happiness
3. Bernie Sanders

I hate it when msm never asks him about issues important to us. It's always stupid questions about unimportant stuff!

I love Bernie Sanders because he doesn't lower himself and feed into the msm attacks. He has an unmatched integrity and laser focus on the issues the America people care about and he doesn't let them take him on the attack road. He fights for us and is not bought! GO BERNIE GO! GIVE EM HELL!

Wow. Bernie has become immensely popular, so they are surely trying to
change the narrative from support by Big Ed, to meathooks by Greenspan's
wife. Integrity: Bernie has it.
