They prefer swamp creatures - the very people they've convinced their mouth-breathers that they're "against."

and I'm pretty sure he knows "who" he's working with.

He may never have won a Democratic nomination - but he helped return the party to its pluralistic roots, and to power.

Good, echoing FDR: I welcome their hatred!. Bernie cannot be bought!!!!!
That's why when he comes up in conversation with Republicans (and I live in a fairly red city), they may not agree with him - but they almost all respect him.
They know what he stands for - rather than being 'corporate-lite' (as well-meaning as that is).
