(62,325 posts)support Bernie so why would his supporters 'retreat' anywhere? Same thing on all Liberal Forums, Bernie is the clear favorite.
I don't intend to attack any candidate, but I will point out their records since it is BASED on those records that I made the decision to support Sanders.
I like O'Malley on the issues also and am impressed with his ability to speak clearly about where he stands.
Bernie has never sought out 'safety' nor will his supporters.
It is his courage to stand up for issues when others were hesitant to do so.
Such as Gay Marriage which he championed 20 years ago at a time when even Dems were afraid or simply didn't agree with it, to do so.
I know he is happy about some of the progress made on the issues HE has fought for all of his life.
Don't expect either Bernie or his supporters to 'hide' anywhere. Silly comment actually.
