You think the guy who could never form a single coalition to pass any major legislation is a good choice?
No offense but that's dumb.
Bernie has good politics but he's a horrendous politician. Standing off to the side saying the right things, and never getting any legislation passed, is not being a leader. Part of politics is getting people on your side.
He tried to come in and tell everyone he wanted to be the team captain, while never playing a single inning for the team he was wanting to lead.
Are you shocked that people who played on that team didn't want him to be the leader?
Precisely. They almost solely are responsible for him. The news companies wagged the dog for clicks.
