I'm a bit worried to see what the world would look like if Bernie's squad were actually haters - or maybe it's just that Bernie himself doesn't attack, but for the rest of his crew it's open season?</p> <p>Anyway, I don't have anything bad to say about Bernie except observing that a campaign overtly labeled as based on socialism is a touch sell in America, and he's quite old for a culture that favors youth. Good luck, y'all - may the best .mensch win</p> <p>(though how that's defined is still open to interpretation - as Gregory Bateson noted, survival of the fittest is a tautology - you look at who survived and then label their traits as the most fit for that environment. Doesn't work somewhere else? blame it on the environment)</p> </div></div></div> Fri, 06 Nov 2015 11:16:18 +0000 PeraclesPlease comment 214935 at http://dagblog.com Thanks, Sync, I can see you http://dagblog.com/comment/214922#comment-214922 <a id="comment-214922"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/reader-blogs/part-2-political-convenence-dark-side-hillary-clinton-20027">PART 2: POLITICAL CONVENIENCE &amp; THE DARK SIDE OF HILLARY CLINTON </a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>Thanks, Sync, I can see you put a lot of work into this, and I'll look more carefully at it all tomorrow, but I, too, have a hard time getting through such a long laundry list of accusations against Hillary, as if that is all there is to her.  There is so much more, and, while some of what you've put up here is an uncomfortable truth, it needs to be tempered with at least some of what she's done right.  Nobody on earth could be as bad as you've painted her.  </p> <p>You've grabbed every link and video you could find that would prove what you believe is true about her--and with all that's on the internet, that's not hard to do.</p> <p>I, too, wish you had left out the clearly biased CNN panel discussion with Hugh Hewitt and Ana Navarro.  (Navarro's CNN bio:  <span style="font-size:14px">Ana Navarro, a Republican strategist and commentator, was national Hispanic campaign chairwoman for John McCain in 2008, national Hispanic co-chair for Jon Huntsman's 2012 campaign and is supporting Jeb Bush's candidacy for 2016.) I watched that live and it was, as Navarro might say (often), "ridiculous".</span></p> <p>I've seen Bill Moyers' interview with Elizabeth Warren before and there is good reason to question Hillary's vote on the bankruptcy bill.  It was a good interview and Warren handled it fairly.</p> <p>The screed from Robert Scheer was something else again.  I wouldn't have expected anything less from him.  It's who he is, but I wonder why I should care what he thinks of Hillary?  He isn't exactly known for his fair assessment of anything that smacks of U.S. government, and he's a Clinton hater from way back.  I'm always suspicious of those who paint the Clintons in all black with no shades of grey. It's been done and done and done.</p> <p>Anyway, I know you're passionate about exposing Hillary and you've put a lot of effort into this.  It's late and I'll look at it again tomorrow.  I don't want what you've done here to go unnoticed, but so far I haven't changed my mind.</p> <p> </p> </div></div></div> Fri, 06 Nov 2015 03:58:09 +0000 Ramona comment 214922 at http://dagblog.com All of it.  Really.  Oxy - http://dagblog.com/comment/214914#comment-214914 <a id="comment-214914"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/comment/214906#comment-214906">Hal, which part of the blog&#039;s</a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>All of it.  Really.  Oxy - you wrote that you don't like Sync's laundry list technique.  Why not?  Don't you think a holistic approach is best? </p> </div></div></div> Fri, 06 Nov 2015 02:27:00 +0000 HSG comment 214914 at http://dagblog.com Those are fair answers to my http://dagblog.com/comment/214913#comment-214913 <a id="comment-214913"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/comment/214908#comment-214908">C.

I'd love to read a post from you focusing on his strengths, his very long record and why he's the best candidate for the presidency.
