So, You Have a Rally in NYC a Week Before The Votes Are Cast

[stopbush]

then you run off to Italy for 3 days.

Is that a way to build and sustain momentum into a primary night?

Sanders has the worst advisors, ever.

Can't wait until Tuesday when Hillary pounds another YUGE nail into Sanders political coffin.

1. Not just that...

He has a rally in NY and invites his craziest surrogates along for the ride. I know that he is hard up for surrogates, but he should not let Rosario Dawson, Tim Robbins, Susan Sarandon, or (now) Paul Song take the stage for him. "Corporate Democratic Whores" is going to be the new "unqualified" if the media does it's job.

Also, screw these disaffected progressives that want to bash a party that walked the plank nationally to pass the ACA. Many congressmen lost their jobs and many statehouses went red, because these kids didn't bother to show up after President Obama and the congressional democrats, aka the establishment, passed one of the most consequential pieces of legislation to better the lives of all Americans.

3. Yeah, Paul Song had to "apologize", even if it was a weasel one, that's never a good thing.

I know.. screw 'em.. they have no idea what working means in the Gov to actually get things done. They want ponies and they want them NOW.

4. The rally becomes a HATE RALLY

where all the Hate is towards DEMOCRATS!

5. No different than Trump rallies. Just watched local footage on the news.

Trump was in Pgh yesterday. He told the crowd he will bring the steel industry back to Pgh. They believed him.

7. You guys both nailed it

It's sickening!

8. That's what really gets me mad...

...BS wants all the benefits of running as a Democrat, but he wants to piss and moan about the party at the same time. And he doesn't want to do any of the hard work (campaigning for down-ballot candidates). He wants to have his cake and eat it, too.

2. Right.. not just a rally.. a rally that leaves a bad taste in many People's mouths.

Adds that we need to kick out the "corporate Democratic whores" and replace them with "Bernie-crats."

6. So is Bernie going to be in Italy Fri, Sat and Sun?

Great! I hope that HRC has lots of events lined up to take advantage of his absence.

9. I heard or read he's flying out right after the debate tonight, speaking tomorrow and

will return Saturday. So really 2 full days. But I agree with you. Poor strategical planning,. Particularly with all the negative press and implications the trip to Rome had generated. What started out as purely a ploy to pander to the Catholic vote in NY, backfired. Announced as an invitation from Pope Francis to speak at a Vatican conclave and a meet and greet with the pope, ends up being a requested invitation, no meet and greet with the Pope and a 10 minute speech at a mid-level academic conference.

If BS gets any positive press out of this I will be flummoxed.

10. After NYDN editorial I think he wants to avoid real interviews!

No more in depth interviews for him and if interviewed -it will be under 4 minutes!!!
