Bernie Sanders
Related: About this forumI have been wondering about Bernie's recent upsurge in the polls and took a closer look at the trend
line. The surge started showing up in the polling on December 20th, 5 days after the last debate.

Sunday's debate should be interesting.

(7,499 posts)Wish she'd wash the goo out of her hair. That aside, she might know her well orchestrated plan to insure HRC the nomination is falling apart, and that thousands of Democrats are calling for her ouster.

(7,231 posts)When the first primary results come in , and show Sanders commanding impressive leads, she'll know the game is up, and start negotiating a graceful exit. She doesn't deserve one, but Sanders is too much a gentleman to oust her.
(But that is what Tim Canova is for! Her district deserves better representation, and Canova is the man to provide it.)

(75,480 posts)When a public figure, who is usually well groomed, shows up to public events looking like an unmade bed, it means something is going on in the background that is affecting their ability to do their job. I also criticized Boehner for looking like he was half in the bag much of the time, because, as it turns out, he was drinking on the job as his appearance indicated. I didn't criticize Hillary Clinton for being rumpled when she was SOS even though she often went in front of the camera looking so because her job of flying around the world most of the time forced her to sleep in airplanes and not have much space for wardrobe and makeup.
I never comment much on appearance unless it is important to the whole picture.

(5,400 posts)Bonus points if they raise eyebrows at the use of the daughter to make attacks.
And presumably the Secret Service has had to assign extra agents for her now that she's campaigning so vigorously for her mother. That's looking a bit dicey, imo, as she's now on the attack, and not just providing support.

(2,603 posts)and someone who acts like a progressive, the voters will choose the real thing every time.
Hillary is a right of center actor and the voters know it. They will vote accordingly.

(5,066 posts)it's going to get ugly sunday.But,this is kind of fight bernie likes.he wants to fight on issues not the scandals.If clinton tries in debate to pull what she send her daughter to do bernie will counter.
I also believe bernie's speech on wall street helped him.
