Rep Sen. on Face the Nation says Bernie's policies are the same as the Soviet Union, N. Korea, Cuba

Bernie groupies insist the Republicans won't act like Republicans and won't demonize Sanders as a "crypto-Commie". Read what Sen. Ron Johnson said this week on Face the Nation...

SEN. RON JOHNSON (R), WISCONSIN: speaking on Face the Nation May 29:

So, I'm just hoping our fellow Americans take a look at what Bernie Sanders is trying to sell, socialism. Didn't work for the Soviet Union, in Venezuela, what should be the island paradise of Cuba. And look at the misery in North Korea.

Many of them would say just that. Our counter would blow their argument out of the water. I'll defend Sanders against every one of these attacks. Just about every single argument they can make up with respect to Sanders or Clinton, we have ideas and counterarguments that are far more sound and appeal to more people.
