The reason that the GOP has had the success they've had is that they aren't, as a rule, wishy-washy. Americans like that. Bernie is our chance to show America a candidate from the left who believes what he says. It's going to be an interesting election, and I think we might have some big surprises.

So yes, once people get to know him they will love him.

(3,533 posts)I think it will be very interesting when he becomes the nominee to see which down-ticket candidates embrace him and which still spew the Corporatist mantras.
We could have a monumental cleansing of this party!!!

(62,325 posts)registered Dems, will be voting for the progressive candidates that the party leadership doesn't support.
So it's not just going to be Bernie, we will know who to vote for for Congress and the Senate.
I agree with you, I think there will be a huge cleaning out of Corporate funded candidates.
