9. That picture is what, 7 or 8 years old? And SALON put that piece out before this

business hit the fan:

Sanders said while apologizing for the breach during Saturday night's Democratic debate that his staff "did the wrong thing."

"This is not the kind of campaign that we run and if I find anybody else involved in this, they will also be fired," Sanders said.



http://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2016-election/sanders-campaign-suspends-two-more-staffers-over-clinton-data-breach-n483411

And the Sanders campaign then booted two more staffers off the island (will more follow?).

And then he apologized....to SECSTATE Clinton....AND HIS SUPPORTERS.

Why aren't his supporters following his lead? You'd think they'd understand that he wants to find the guilty parties, yank them out like weeds, and move on smartly. Instead, they keep beating on a false meme that his Chief of Staff and communications director put out (and now they're quiet as church mice--funny how that works).

Makes no darn sense. But don't take my word, listen to Senator Sanders:




There is an independent audit going on right now, we'll probably know more by next week.
Are you sure? I understand Sanders has suspended two more. Thinkingabout Dec 2015 #1
