The people he's hired are making bad decisions, and that reflects badly on Bernie. Of course he didn't set the stage... he just showed up at the last minute to read some prepared remarks. --- But if the people he chooses to trust with such things are making these godawful decisions... that reflects poorly on his judgement as well.

I'm sorry, but that's just the way it is, Elleng. It's not silly. It's just sad.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
