which made Sanders look all the better. I wonder what Clinton fans think of Mathews.

Hillary donors are also her donors.

snip...

Many of Matthews' biggest donors have close ties to either the Clinton foundation or the Clintons themselves. As noted by Bloomberg two years ago, 12 families have donated to every single Clinton campaign and charity. Of the 12 families, the two families that have donated the most to the Clintons are both funding Matthews' campaign. Four families from Bloomberg's list of biggest Clinton donors have given to the Matthews' campaign. None of the four live in Maryland, where Matthews is actually running.

when he gets away with over-talking his guests, later in the edited version, he can say, "See, I asked him the question and he had no answer."

Sometimes I wonder why he even has guests on his program or why they agree to come on to his program. His program is just about him anyway, but Tweety met his match tonight.

He's running against the corporate media as well. Tweety was beside himself trying to "get" Bernie. Never once did Tweety say, "Those are great goals Bernie, they may not be achievable but they are something we should be working toward." It was a steady stream of Hillary's mantra of "we can't".

I know he is a shill for Clinton but Bernie had him sputtering.
Although Chris fully understood exactly what Bernie said, Bernie would have floored him all the way to Camp Clinton with "to put it in simple terms you may better understand...People Power, We The People whom Schumar & McConnell work for"
