I think Bernie is being very smart reaching out to all voters. I read some time ago, Independents are now 42 percent of the voting population. That is so much higher than it used to be because Democrats have lost so many voters. Republicans as well.

Shortly before the Massachusetts primary was set to occur, the Secretary of State stepped out and said 20,000 Democrats had left the party so far that year. 18,000 had re-registered as Independents, and 3,000 had signed up with the Republicans. I thought those figures were staggering.

In Vermont, Sanders attracts voters from all sides of the aisles, and I believe he has the capacity to do that in the General Election as well.

What people call "bashing" the Democratic party is an overkill statement. Bernie gives constructive criticism. There is quite a difference. He is attempting to coax the Third Way ("Establishment&quot Dems into not so much compromising with Republicans as moving over to the progressive side of the aisle. Looking at the Republican party today, I support that effort he is making.
