Iowa Starting Line - Where’s The Beef, Bernie? [View all] Alfresco Jan 2016 OP

And many of us do not believe a word Hillary utters. djean111 Jan 2016 #1

That begs the question firebrand80 Jan 2016 #8

You don't EdwardBernays Jan 2016 #20

I'm pretty certain I know the reason firebrand80 Jan 2016 #23

You should've used that power of yours EdwardBernays Jan 2016 #29

Or, I could call Bernie a liar firebrand80 Jan 2016 #35

He stated again yesterday he would release it before Iowa. JonLeibowitz Jan 2016 #40

I wasn't aware of that firebrand80 Jan 2016 #42

You're right of course, Jeff Weaver was playing coy the day before. I think it is some kind of strat JonLeibowitz Jan 2016 #46

I think that since Bernie has the momentum in IA firebrand80 Jan 2016 #82

You could call him a liar... but you'de be wrong. The Iowa caucus hasn't happened yet. Bubzer Jan 2016 #49

What's "obvious" EdwardBernays Jan 2016 #76

It's obvious to me firebrand80 Jan 2016 #80

"as if he has released a plan" Why would Bernie allow this deception? WHY? riversedge Jan 2016 #83

Your side lost the authority to talk about deception. You can, but it doesn't carry meaning. DisgustipatedinCA Jan 2016 #97

No--this sounds like Bernie is doing just what all politicians do. MADem Jan 2016 #115

He has released it. Fawke Em Jan 2016 #63

Has Bernie said that's his plan? firebrand80 Jan 2016 #96

Oh come on--not even his STAFF is suggesting that that is "it." nt MADem Jan 2016 #116

It probably looks a lot like the Vermont Universal Health Care Plan. MADem Jan 2016 #91

Five demerits for improper use of "begs the question" Scootaloo Jan 2016 #101

And it doesn't have a hope in hell of passing Congress. MADem Jan 2016 #14

And Hillary can't "status quo" us into a better America. Ed Suspicious Jan 2016 #27

It is all 'pie in the sky.' I don't believe him. MADem Jan 2016 #92

So how, exactly, then is Clinton going to do ANYTHING? Goblinmonger Jan 2016 #64

lead enid602 Jan 2016 #77

So Sanders has not clue how to do that? Goblinmonger Jan 2016 #86

Clinton has coattails in an election--Sanders does not. MADem Jan 2016 #104

Some of us believe the opposite is true. John Poet Jan 2016 #106

That excitement turns to "Let's move on to the next big thing" when it becomes MADem Jan 2016 #112

You're way off-topic now. We were talking about coat-tails, John Poet Jan 2016 #113

If I'm off topic, it's because YOU brought up the "excitement" factor and started MADem Jan 2016 #114

You wanna be my momma, now? John Poet Jan 2016 #117

Just when I thought you'd reached your nadir, you disabuse me of that notion! MADem Jan 2016 #120

You made it personal FIRST. John Poet Jan 2016 #121

No, I didn't--you did. Go on, pull the string. MADem Jan 2016 #122

Do you even hear what you type in your head? Goblinmonger Jan 2016 #108

Look at the super delegate count. How many of those DC incumbents are backing BS? MADem Jan 2016 #109

And Clouds will come down from the sky John Poet Jan 2016 #119

Clinton's going to do it incrementally, with a bit of quid pro quo. MADem Jan 2016 #89

Quid pro quo is pretty much how anything at all comradebillyboy Jan 2016 #102

Does this mean I can't convince you to reconsider and support Hillary? :-) Alfresco Jan 2016 #15

Bwahahahaha! A visit from Bill and Hillary could not get me to support Hillary. djean111 Jan 2016 #17

And the fact that the author of this article was a 2008 Hillary staffer CoffeeCat Jan 2016 #55

He has pro-Sanders articles on his site. I find his writing to be informative and unbiased. Alfresco Jan 2016 #58

Actually NO... CoffeeCat Jan 2016 #79

So you're saying he's like that Goodman fella who gets so much love here lately. nt MADem Jan 2016 #93

What's the point of this forum, in your opinion? firebrand80 Jan 2016 #10

This article is written by an Iowan for Iowans and you want to suppress it. What are you afraid of? Alfresco Jan 2016 #11

Yep... CSStrowbridge Jan 2016 #30

LOL, getting started a bit early on throwing liberals under the bus for Hillary's weak general prosp JonLeibowitz Jan 2016 #44

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!! CSStrowbridge Jan 2016 #127

Some people won't vote for her, but not out of spite. Fawke Em Jan 2016 #68

No, this was written by a FORMER HILLARY STAFFER. It's bunk. CoffeeCat Jan 2016 #50

He has pro-Sanders articles on his site. I find his writing to be informative and unbiased. Alfresco Jan 2016 #60

They do? You sure about that? Didn't look that way to me... MADem Jan 2016 #16

Suggesting that this opinion piece is reflective of the views of Iowans is ludicrious CoffeeCat Jan 2016 #84

LOL! Sanders will have a lot less trouble getting things enacted than Hillary would. merrily Jan 2016 #5

LOL! Is that the plan? BlueMTexpat Jan 2016 #7

What's Hillary's plan? See Reply 39. merrily Jan 2016 #54

How? CSStrowbridge Jan 2016 #32

Bullshit enid602 Jan 2016 #51

quixotic enid602 Jan 2016 #69

Still no back up? Sorry, no point reading more of your unsupported opinion. merrily Jan 2016 #73

It's hiarious--and it only took him a quarter century (and John McCain making the first move) MADem Jan 2016 #99

I've not commented on his attempted combover. :-) Probably his non-support of the Democratic Party. Alfresco Jan 2016 #21

Yep I know what you mean. safeinOhio Jan 2016 #34

Looked at Clinton's issue page. Tons of stuff listed with NO discussion of how to pay for it. n/t Skwmom Jan 2016 #66

IOW that we as a nation paid this kind of 'how are we going to pay for it?' scrutiny to wars. aidbo Jan 2016 #98

Or Homeland Security. Or the CIA. Or the FBI. Or the Secret Service. Or the NSA. merrily Jan 2016 #130
