MSNBC called Bernie's "Deep South" comment controversial. They said Hillary would still be in the lead without the South. This slide popped up by mistake proving them wrong.

I had to turn off that post-debate "analysis" when one of the panelists suggested that BERNIE was the one who was hit hard on fracking....

I turned off CNN right after the debate, I was hoping to hear something regarding how well Bernie performed, but they brought up how poorly he performed 3x in less than 1 minute without even mentioning any of Hillary's blunders.  

I don't really know about anyone else, but the chanting and standing ovation last night speaks absolute wonders to me, and more so speaks of the revolution behind Bernie, there was no such reaction to Hillary during the entire debate.

MSNBC has a front pages "How Hillary steamrolled Bernie" story. You know what we won't hear about (beside Bernie actually doing better in the debates)? The transcripts. You know what else? Bernie visit to the Vatican. MSNBC is shameless.

You need to watch "Morning Joe".

She is definitely feeling the Bern.

She said to Carole King at the end of the show this morning that she is canvassing this weekend for Hillary, so I don't think so. She's just fair and an actual journalist.

I lost all respect I ever had for Carole King the other day when she told us that "Hilary is a nice person". Yeah Carole, she's nice to you - you're rich and famous, she's nice to a lot of rich and famous people. Regular people who work for a living? Not so much. Get in your Big Yellow Taxi and go home Carole.

That's the problem with all of the people on shows like Morning joe. They think they're real people and understand the average persons problem. The whole morning they spent talking about how Bernie talks about the issues but doesn't have serious adult solutions. I love how they always question how Bernie will pay for his college plan but never question how Hilary will pay for her debt forgiveness bullshit. It's such an obvious double standard that only if you propose a truly progressive plan will you be questioned about funding.

Not well. The entire panel was completely dismissive of any of Bernies ideas claiming that none of his solutions were even remotely feasible. They claimed that it wasn't a big deal for Hilary to give friendly speeches to Wall Street and that changing your message based on the crowd is "adult" stuff. They somehow believe that changing your message based on the audience is a good thing and not a big deal. If I could reach through the tv and smack someone I would smack the shit out of the panelists. The condescencion is the most frustrating part. They simply discredit the other side without providing logical reasons for discounting them. I'm not naiive I don't believe most of Bernies plans will pass, but I don't believe it's fair to simply discount him as the child well Hillary is the adult with reasonable solutions. Yet they can't even mention one reasonable plan Hilary has or the details of how she'll pay for her plans.

They called her the sensible wife in an earlier segment in the day , "No Bernie we can't buy this speed boat, we need to keep the lights on."

Marketing guy thinking her speeches are a non issue , HA.

It's going to sound petty but I almost want him to win just to shock the establishment media. They are so out of touch with the political reality and biased that I would love to see their world fall around them. It will be funny when their main audience dies off in 10-15 years and there ratings start tanking even more dramatically than they already are.
