I really do not understand why anyone pays an attention to this person. I still remember how this person helped to elect G.W. Bush by helping Nader

BTW, I stopped watching Maher a long time ago. Maher ceased to be funny and I have never heard Moore to be worth watching

After screwing the 2000 election because Al Gore (Al Gore!) wasn’t “pure” enough, Moore went on to make millions off our country’s descent into fascism.
Funny how well that worked out for him.

If we want to gang on people for doing stupid or politically calculating stuff I'm afraid that Al Gore by picking Joe Lieberman as a running mate and then caving to the wacky Florida Cubans over the future of a child was defiantly not "pure enough".

Like many on DU, I may not agree his his every last decision in the past - but his insights and plain speaking are always a plus.

Biden's getting done so much of what Bernie would've wanted to - but could never realistically have the chance to do so.

Moore sees this - and is trying to make sure all of Bernie's voters see it too (not all do - but many are).
