This "#ToneDownForWhat" business

Anyone finding this type of response terribly predictable? Particularly considering
how Bernie, himself, was the first to broach the topic of tone, positive tone, positive campaigning...whatever...(and then shortly went negative).



P.S.
This is pretty much what I expected the average BernBro to look like...

and my peers desire to record themselves and post it on the internet is something hopefully the next generation mocks us for.

Hid two. Told off and defriended another after he went after John Lewis (on my page no less).

and for the most part good democrats. Just wish they would get a hobby other than posting memes on Facebook.

The food isn't spewing facile and shallow political points.

Also, it's possible that I'll want some food like that in the future. His political analysis...no, I'd never swallow that.

It will be the thing that the next boomers rebel against.

5. He's vomiting talking points

but sounds like he thinks he's being clever and original.

His vocal tone and limited rhetoric aren't going to convert anybody on the fence or already in Hillary's camp. I found myself paying more attention to a spot on the wall very quickly, and I'd completely tuned him out thirty seconds later when he hit the "low information voter" "name recognition" talking point.

It's been done to death.

Factually, I'm not sure if he's noted, but Alaska isn't the Progressive West Coast. And there are only two states in that group; California is considered a mixed and diverse state.

Though it would explain how they burned through so much money so quickly.
