Why do most campaign spokepeople lie? I have MSNBC on in the background and thery just had a rep.

[napi21]

from each campaign on. First up was a rep. for Joe. Said a lots of fluff and how they feel Joe will do well tomorrow. Next up was David Sirota(?) for Bernie. He started out OK, talking about a difficult race where Bernie is battling the establishment & the status quo. Then he went into how Joe argued on the Senate floor against SS MANY TIMES, & Joe promises to continue things as they are now. Just replace DT and continue on. He knows that's not true. Why can't they all demonstrate the differences between candidates and try to win the public over to their side, The liesf just turn ME off.

1. Lies and attacks

They turn me off too. I want to hear what they can and will do, not just a trashing of their opponent.

2. I'm not sure what you mean by "fluff" from the Biden rep, but all the Michigan polls suggest they

could win there by a landslide tomorrow, and the polling in other states voting tomorrow also looks very good.

As for Sirota... Well, I don't want to use the language that comes to mind when I think of Sirota.

7. Fluff is just the stuff everyone knows about their caaaaandidate. like he was VP for 8 yrs, he's an

honest man. he always works for the people, etc. I call it fluff because it something everyone already knows.

3. sanders has shown some very poor judgement on staffing issues

Hiring and not firing a liar like Sirota shows very poor judgement on the part of sanders.

5. Not to mention

Nina Turner the stereotypical angry black woman. And all the others. Geeze, why would anyone want to listen to four more years of bullshit?

6. Sirota said....

Joe worked with republicans to cut ss. Utter nonsense. Ari didn't even challenge him!

[napi21]

8. Ari said he was giving each side tome to speak for their candidate. I'm pretty sure that means he

won't argue with either one.

9. The Sanders campaign is ending on an ugly note

They really didn't have to.
It only seems to have accelerated their finish and botched up their own brand.

[Warpy]

10. Spokespeople are usually slick admen and adwomen

who spend most of their lives saying new! and improved! for the same old shit in a smaller box.

No one should ever listen to them for any reason.

12. Biden's campaigner didn't lie, by your own description, while Sanders'

lied like a malignant brain-sucking rug.

As for why, Sanders' tactics appeal to a lot of people he wants to attract. Simple as that.

(As for why no liberal Democratic campaigns lie as SOP, lies repel most liberal Democrats, even when believed initially they end up backfiring. Hiring Sirota alone might sow enough doubt in Biden's integrity to be death to his campaign. WE don't do Sirotas, which everyone can see just by taking a look at the Biden campaign.)

[napi21]

13. I wasn't referring to Biden's campaign. I meant a Sanders spokesman on a TV interview show. David

Serota has been on several shows lying his A** off about Joe. l that does is turn people off against his BOSS Bernie!

[Hortensis]

15. Oh, yes. "When people show you what they are, believe them."

I don't have to know more about Sanders or what he really would do with power to be very relieved that we won't have that to worry about.

14. David Sirota is SCUM
