To Keith Olbermann: Plz go CAMPAIGN FOR BERNIE!

Can you imagine the turnout if KO would open for Bernie at appearances?

Can you imagine what it would do for Bernie if KO would lend his support?

Come on Keith!! If you really believe in what you said all these years......do it!

Who really do not like Keith.


I saved some of his best beratings but he can be considere misogynistic. Just a heads up.

During the 2008 campaign.

Either way he would not get much turnout than Sanders alone could.

I read at feminist sites during the 2008 campaigns. I didn't see it quite the same but there was a lot of anger.

But I do recall some of Hillary's fanbase didn't like him that well. I think they felt he was a little too misogynistic when she was up against Obama.

You're politically active enough to hang out at a political blog. The average voter, even those interested enough in Sanders to go to a rally, aren't necessarily MSNBC obsessives, and a large chunk probably don't have a clue who Olbermann is.

He really doesn't need anyone. All Bernie needs is to continue to be Bernie. He's lighting the house on fire just fine as he is.
