Yeah, happily this doesn't seem to stick either. We'll see in Iowa, but I believe Sanders has reached terminal velocity and these panicked attacks are part of it.

Here's hoping... Of course there's still the corrupt and opaque electoral system to contend with, both in the primaries and the general. If there are gross shenanigans, I do doubt that the Sanders camp will take it lying down, like Kerry did in 2004.

The average of betting odds now, for the first time ever, favor Bernie by 3.5 points.

Yep, he's DANGEROUS:

Is the DNC Planning to Go to War Against the Left?

Progressives raised alarm this weekend after Democratic National Committee chair Tom Perez released his picks for the 2020 Democratic National Convention committees.

The list of nominees, Sunrise Movement political director Evan Weber said Sunday, looks like “a who’s-who of people explicitly opposed to the progressive agenda.”

Kevin Gosztola, managing editor of Shadowproof, sparked a flurry of responses when he shared Perez’s list on social media Saturday afternoon.

...

Perez also nominated former Congressman Barney Frank to be co-chair of the Rules Committee.

Frank, as Gosztola pointed out, has argued against the Green New Deal and sits on the board of directors of Signature Bank in New York, which a New York Times report showed “was a go-to lender for President Donald Trump’s family, as well as Jared Kushner’s family.” Frank also penned a 2015 Politico op-ed entitled “Why Progressives Shouldn’t Support Bernie.”


And there's even fucking PODESTA. :lol2:

Worried Democratic Operatives Scramble to Fund a Network to Take Down Bernie Sanders

A group of loosely affiliated Democratic operatives have been in discussions about putting together an effort to attack Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) should he end up winning next week’s Iowa caucus and, potentially, the New Hampshire primary a week later.

The talks, which two sources described to The Daily Beast, are in their nascent stages, and have already hit a snag. Big money Democrats have shown reluctance at funding such an effort, which could consist of ads attacking Sanders, and institutions associated with Democratic politics have largely shied away from being part of any campaign that goes after the senator, either out of fear over the backlash or growing acceptance at the prospect of him becoming the party’s nominee.

“It’s not any one group of people” trying to build the anti-Sanders effort, said one of the Democratic sources. “It is a loose network of people who think he would be very problematic as a nominee. There is, at this stage, calls to, and conversations with, donors and organizations that might support such an effort. But as far as I can tell, nobody has found sufficient financial support to get it off the ground.”

Yes and as of last night, the MSDNC Twitter account was BANNED for no good reason. Lots of negative reaction, hopefully the account will be restored.

I noticed that people were taking it serously by accident, but this sounds downright jackboot-style stuff.
