Bernie Sanders negatives are HUGE!!!!!

[Luminous Animal]

He's rumpled. Agreed.
He has cotton candy hair. Agreed
Someone tweeted he looked grumpy. Oh you twitter.
He wrote an article decades ago about how men's magazines present sexual fantasies from the perspective of men citing men's sexual fantasies published in men's magazines resulting in the conclusion that women and men should approach sexuality as equals. i am horrified.

[DanTex]

1. Also he's getting crushed in the polls, just lost a major union endorsement, has minimal fundraising

capacity, and is a self-described socialist in a nation where only 48% of the electorate would even consider voting for one.

[Recursion]

3. And 18% of *Democrats* say they would not consider voting for him (nt)

[Luminous Animal]

9. Well now I am totally confuzled. Should I go with that 18% or the 92% that swoon over his

cotton candy hair. Enquiring minds want to know.

[whatchamacallit]

4. Right, no threat at all

Which is why you're in here spinning 24/7

[DanTex]

6. No threat to the GOP, no. His supporters might damage Hillary's chances in the GE if they

keep repeating right-wing smears against her though. But of course they would never do that. Oh, wait.

[Luminous Animal]

12. Really. What right wing smears are Bernie supporters repeating?

[London Lover Man]

18. When we tell you facts, you often perceive it as a right wing smear or some attack against your

favorite candidate, when factchecking.

Oh, and Correct the Record is not a valid site for resources.

[Luminous Animal]

5. Did he seek that endorsement? No he did not. So he did not lose it. And he is a Democratic

Socialist. Now how about you spend some time actually refuting his platform from a Democratic perspective. Tear them apart. Put some effort into it.

[DanTex]

8. Good strategy. Don't seek union endorsements.

Starting to see why his poll numbers are so low...

[GoneFishin]

20. I know it. Talk about right wing smears, then omit the word "Democratic" from Democratic Socialist.

[daleanime]

10. And are those poll numbers...

the same as two months ago?

[grahamhgreen]

30. He's a Democratic Socialist, not a socialist. And rising quickly in the polls.

[zappaman]

2. And he eats kittens.

I reads it on the inter tubes!

[daleanime]

11. Now hold on a minute, just because some neighbors....

have complained about the smell of burning hair it's.....oops.

[SusanaMontana41]

22. That explains the furry ears.

MEEEEEE YOWWWW

[Cheese Sandwich]

7. It was just a criticism of rape culture and the internalized gender role stereotypes of patriarchy

Even though it was poorly executed. That's how I read it anyway And you seem to be roughly seeing that too. I don't think most people are going to get that though.

[immoderate]

14. Most people will see (know about) this, how?

--imm

[Cheese Sandwich]

17. I don't think most people will read it and understand it in those terms.

Yet this seems to be the actual meaning.

[immoderate]

19. My point is, (most) people will never be aware it exists, much less delve into its nuances.

Let's invoke some reality here.

[SusanaMontana41]

23. Don't sell us short. I got this far. n/t

[brooklynite]

13. None of those issues bother me...

...neither do any of his positions.

It's just that thing about not being able to win in November.....

[frylock]

15. He'll just have to settle for winning the following November.

[artislife]

21. And with that hair! nt

[immoderate]

16. If he gets the most votes (and barring "irregularities") he will win.

There is no good reason he can't. And he won't get us into a war.

--imm

[brooklynite]

24. Most candidates DON'T "get the most votes"

...and no substantive explanation from his supporters as to how he will.

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

27. The same way as any other politician.

He'll tell voters what his ideas are, they'll agree with them, and they'll vote for him.

[brooklynite]

28. Just like President Kucinich did?

he won'thave the financial resources to hire staff to organize support,or to pay for advertising to counter what the Republicans put up.

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

29. President Kucinich didn't get through the primary.

Heck, did he even get through the first 2 primary states?

While you obviously see the two as being the same, a lot of voters already seem to disagree with you, and it's my contention that as the campaigns go on, that number will grow.

[immoderate]

31. People provide the votes. Unless there is a tie, (rare) one of them will get the most.

That will be the winner. Simple.

26. I clicked in just to see if 'negatives' were a new euphemism for something else... nt
