There've been a fair number of allegations of financial misbehaviors among the various groups that make up his "revolution," and I wouldn't put anything past some of them. They're making full use of the corrupt systems the Republicans set up to hide their dark money from scrutiny.

And of course Sanders himself has the 9 Superpacs Biden charged him with after he hypocritically attacked Biden for being associated with two. One thing I know, the ones that work to elect Biden abide by the law, because that's how Biden himself rolls and he'd insist on it; and I'd be extremely surprised if the 9 Superpacs formed around Sanders did. Not with the kind of people he draws involved.

Whatever, their ruthless and unprincipled aggression disappointed must be a really ugly scene.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
