With Bernie, I see more possibilities.
I don't know. Republicans are still flipping out about Obama being a "Socialist."
What will they do when an actual self-identified "Socialist" is in office?
Obama isn't a socialist but no matter how he countered the base will always believe it. With Bernie, he'll readily admit he's a socialist of some nature and then hammer them with it. He's not a shrinking violet and he's got the experience and facts to back himself up.
I felt the same as deckeda, that Hillary getting the nomination was the only way to keep check on the insanity that is congress. But I'm now of the belief that we didn't give Bernie enough credit. That he can pull in voters just as well as Hillary. Maybe even better.
