Bernie responded to the situation very well. JDPriestly Jul 2015 #97

He responded horribly. I thought he was Mr. Town Hall. R B Garr Jul 2015 #120

He had just watched part of the way O'Malley was treated. JDPriestly Jul 2015 #131

Well, Hillary wasn't there, so no rational person is blaming her. R B Garr Jul 2015 #143

Sorry, sheshe2 Jul 2015 #130

See my post #131. Black Lives Matter should have been given a time to JDPriestly Jul 2015 #133

I suppose you haven't noticed the "Bernie doesn't care for minorities" meme floated here recently? leveymg Jul 2015 #8

They have, it's a talking point, a Rovian tactic and they know exactly what it is. sabrina 1 Jul 2015 #32

It's a Rovian tactic all the way. We know it when we smell it. Enthusiast Jul 2015 #101

Love ya sabrina, but gotta echo Cali_Democrat here... Scootaloo Jul 2015 #4

I am entitled to my opinion, which is based on years of watching and sabrina 1 Jul 2015 #9

Except you stated it as a fact. zappaman Jul 2015 #12

I stated an informed opinion. sabrina 1 Jul 2015 #15

And you said you KNOW more than anyone about this. "KNOW" isn't an opinion, but...... George II Jul 2015 #73

Yes, I do. Are you questioning that? I know that the Karl Rove sabrina 1 Jul 2015 #77

So what is it that you've been dancing around and hinting over and over again? George II Jul 2015 #80

Apparently it's only a 'dark secret' to you. But then, maybe you are new to all this. sabrina 1 Jul 2015 #85

It must be a "dark secret" to me, since you've said you know more than any of us... George II Jul 2015 #92

This is well-known tactic. NanceGreggs Jul 2015 #100

It's an ongoing tactic attempting to pass off opinions as fact.. Sheepshank Jul 2015 #96

And you nailed it. Enthusiast Jul 2015 #102

As they say.... George II Jul 2015 #83

It was widely known that HRC wouldn't show. Which is why there was no danger she'd be splattered leveymg Jul 2015 #11

If that's the case Bernie has big problems LordGlenconner Jul 2015 #48

This incident makes the internet meme clear. If dirty tricks blow-back at HRC, this will give Bernie leveymg Jul 2015 #62

It's not that she "wouldn't show", it's that she had a previous speaking engagement.... George II Jul 2015 #89

That's my quote in support of Bernie being taken out of context. I was speaking about BLM chanters GoneFishin Jul 2015 #28

This is woo. And a tad childish. JaneyVee Jul 2015 #16
