Dream on, Bernie

Slow and steady won Clinton the debate

My wife agrees with this guy and the other pro-Hillary realists.

And Bernie, now, in place of John McCain, is beginning to be depicted by some who oppose him as the ranting old man shouting "Get off my lawn!"

On the other hand, if Bernie can drum up enough support in the public for his ideas he might get a cooperative and Democratic congress for his first term, giving him his shot.

Always provided the Democrats elected are united behind him, which is very, very unlikely, too.

Hillary's pragmatic argument is something of an evasion.

The truth is that she and many Democrats oppose Medicare for all on principle, anyway.

Unlike Bernie, she and they are progressives but not socialists.

Not even social democrats, to the extent he is.
