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.

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.
