Why Bernie Will Win it All; thanks to the RW Noise Machine

The good news is that Bernie will win the nomination and the Presidency. And the right wing noise machine will have played an important, maybe even crucial role. For almost 25 years, they have been pounding relentlessly on Hillary, and while you can point to mistakes she made, there is no way she deserved what she got from those assholes. They have hammered her to the point that even Dems are tired of hearing about her. This fatigue will enable Bernie to creep up on her and even pass her long before the big state primaries put him over the top. The noise machine will never let her go, even as she drops in the polls because their foam-at-the-mouth breathing readers and listeners think Hillary is Satan's own daughter. They demand their Hillary hate and they would elect anyone even BenitoTrump rather than her. If Hillary managed to survive the primary, the trolls would come out to vote in droves and maybe even threaten to drive Dems from the polls with automatic weapons.

But when they discover that their opposition is Bernie, they won't know what to think. They haven't been paying attention to him. The noise machine will then only have a little more than six months to reindoctrinate them and they aren't fast learners. Meanwhile Bernie will be having more and more exposure and even the zombie right will understand this is not an ordinary Democrat and realize he would be good for them too. Bernie will also rip their candidate a new one, even several new ones in the debates. The sudden hysterical pleading and teeth gnashing of Rush and Hannity et al will sound exactly like that to their base who will see that the choice is Bernie and an ignorant malignant narcissist or Bernie and yet another RNC stooge who will gladly screw them again. Without Hillary to vote against in November 2016, the bitter, broken, Republican base will either not show up or will come in and covertly vote for Bernie.

But since when did that play a big role in US elections, let alone modern US elections?

The big difference this go round is that the establishment does not have all the possible candidates under their thumb....one alludes them, and they are displeased.
