I've got to tell you about Chris Matthews' compliment about Bernie...

When he looks at the two candidates, he sees joy & enthusiasm, with Bernie having the time of his life. It's why he's doing well.

(He said the same about Trump, explaining why each were ahead, & Chris actually qualified his lumping Bernie & Trump together & said the joy of the two was for different reasons.)

He's tried everything. Railed against socialism. Wore a tin-foil hat. He tried and failed, I guess.

Come on. This guy said "We're all neocons now!" in jubilation at George W. Bush's "victory" in Iraq, and Bush's macho posturing.

He's a douche.

And if someone doesn't like me using the derogatory expletive 'douche', they may substitute the expletive of their choice.

or douche-baggedness. Or even his flatulence.

Matthews earned that on his own.
