The coal narrative is full of shit. Bernie Sanders is to the left of HRC on coal!

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

The pundits continue to suggest that the reason why HRC is losing is due to her missteps and misstatements on coal.

BULLSHIT!! That's a smokescreen!

Why?

Because she and Bernie Sanders share the same views on coal. In fact I would argue that Bernie is to the LEFT of her on this issue.

So, there's something else driving these results.

And like we saw in West Virginia, most of those Bernie voters are really Trump voters in disguise.

Added to that, Steve Kornacki is suggesting that the in the Bernie strongholds, there are a lot of "Uncommitted" voters.

Hmmm....

1. Bernie is losing.

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

3. Hope so. But that's been the narrative up to now. Just don't let the punditry convince people that

coal is the issue. It's NOT!

[Kaleva]

5. Doesn't matter what the narrative is. Hillary will be the nomineee. Nothing Bernie can do about it.

He needed 67% of the vote in order to be on track to tie Hillary in delegates. He missed the mark big time.

2. She also embraces President Blackenstein

Not exactly gonna go over well in places like West Virginia and Kentucky. Hillary also verbalized her comments on coal. Her saying "we're gonna put a lot of coal miners out of business" was not good for that area. So even tho Bernie may be to the left of her, how many of them actually sat down and looked at their policies on it. Sound bites matter.

4. Oh my fellow Terp, I didn't say it. If I did, trust, I'd be "alerted". LOL!

[UMTerp01]

7. I don't give a shit about being "alerted"

This is a freaking message board. I have never not once been such a shrew to "alert" someone of a post because my itty bitty wittle feelings got hurt. No one on this board has the power to bring that kind of emotion out of me. I wouldn't allow anyone on a message board to do that because I can stand healthy debate, even when it gets a little nasty. Life goes on man.

9. You sound like me! LOL!! That's how we Terps do! FEAR THE TURTLE!!

[BobbyDrake]

6. I agree, none of the articles that mention the coal comments by Clinton...

...say anything about Sanders' stance on the same issue. None.

The media needs their horse race, after all.

[CrowCityDem]

8. Bernie's quiet about his positions when he knows voters hate them.

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

10. And because the punditry won't hold him accountable for that.

[DemonGoddess]

11. The issue is more gun related

Same thing that cost her in many areas in Indiana.

12. Carbon Tax Bernie

which means higher 'lectric bills for you and me.
