That reminds me of when Bill came to Arkansas in 2010 to campaign against a liberal candidate in the Democratic Senate primary-- it was like the Old Bill Clinton was campaigning against the Young Bill Clinton.

I really think there's nothing left for her to do that could have a big impact. Fire away Hillary Inc.!

Particularly when you're an anti-establishment candidate like Bernie. Of course he's talking about what he doesn't like. Also, he's currently - during the primary - running against someone with whom he shares some views. We're quite obviously making our decisions based on where they differ, not where they're the same. Why would he talk about the areas where he agrees with her?

Bernie is for plenty of things, things that help average Americans. He is against things that help the super rich.

She's against health care without vast profit streams for a few, she's against offering education to our young people without vast profit streams for a few.

I have to say that 'against marriage equality' thing is enough for me, that makes her the 'against' candidate no matter what. 'My God agrees with me, I'm against your family'.
