Their Greed May Do Them In

Because of Citizens United and the open taps of money flow - This campaign season has been extended to capitalize on this cash give-a-way

Most of the candidates know that they have no shot at the nomination - they just want their share

Their impetuousness caused the dems to jump in early

Now - As we have been told - Bernie Can't Win
If this were a normal campaign season I would have to agree with that statement
But - With this ridiculously long campaign season - Time Is On Bernie's Side

Because the repugs (thanks Cruz) insisted on having more time to money-grub they may end up with a socialist president

We need to get money out of politics. That's why I'm voting for Bernie.
