(13,685 posts)Bernie had her on the ropes especially with the Kissinger truth.

(4,213 posts)If you go back and read the transcript you'll see Clinton was misleading on many issues such as Sanders endorsing military regime change in Libya to deflect from her Iraq War resolution or Bernie's vote to keep funding the war while our troops were over there. He does need to say to her - so you helped start the war, but I approved money so our boys didn't get killed over there. I guess people forget about the body armor issue, and how our troops weren't even prepared to be sent into an urban situaiton without proper equipment.
The Honduras issue exemplified the kind of approach you'll get from Clinton. They need to be taught a lesson.
I came away from this debate actually more frightened of a Clinton nomination than ever.

(13,685 posts)Thanks for the reminder. I shed a tear for the children at that moment when Bernie spoke up for them. Something like:
"How do you appeal to the children when they are being run from their country?"

(8,879 posts)yes, I think there might have been something funny about the crowd tonight. This combined with the extremely well orchestrated analysis during and after debate hitting all the major anti-bernie talking points, I think something was off there.

It is clear to me now that some people do not live in the world of reality that most of us do, and some are desperately stocking up on excuses to throw at the wall when he loses. Most of these will be of the tin foil hat variety. Count on it.
