The antipathy for Bernie, at least among Dem professionals, is palpable despite his attempts to ingratiate himself with the establishment. The very first person Obama hired for his South Carolina primary campaign in 2008 told me that Bernie should not even be allowed to run

Bernie's paradox is that the antipathy he generates among segments of the Dem establishment is what *endears* him to his core support base, but he also needs to court segments of the Dem establishment in order to win the nomination. How he navigates that dynamic remains unclear!

I was actually a bit surprised by the explicit hostility toward Bernie. He's made overture after conciliatory overture to Democratic Party chieftains, and it doesn't seem to have had all that much of an effect

I wish Jesse would formally endorse Bernie for his consistent, 30+ year record of not being that white liberal MLK talked about. There's no one in politics today that has Bernie's long record of principle, integrity and being right over and over. And Sanders delivered Vermont.

Good article. I wish Jesse Jackson would endorse Bernie outright. It wouldn't take any more courage than Bernie showed on Jesse's behalf in 1988. But these haters. Would they rather have Bernie run as a third-party candidate?

I can’t believe they’re trying to claim Russian collusion. That’s a new one to me. I’ve seen people blame him as a spoiler, but guess I missed that page of the Mueller report
