In reply to the discussion: I like Sanders, really I do......BUT... [View all]BooScout
(10,406 posts)It brings up legitimate concerns that he will face IF he were to somehow win the nomination (which I don't expect him to do btw).
I didn't slam him for having a child out of wedlock, it makes no difference to me, but one would have to be naive if they think the rabid right will not use that and his self professed socialist description of himself against him. Just as they did with Bill Clinton.
So far the right has stayed quiet about him......and they will continue to do so.....because it is in their best interests to let him get as far as possible in the primaries....but make no mistake......eventually they will pounce on him.
I have merely pointed out what is down the road for him when he faces Republican criticism.....and that will be on a national stage, not a message board primarily frequented by friendly liberals and progressives.
