Karl Rove and hedge fund billionaire Paul Singer bankrolling Sanders campaign [View all]
 
 No, Karl Rove's super PAC and other conservative groups haven't suddenly embraced a $15 minimum wage. But they're running ads that help him in an effort to weaken Hillary Clinton.

Did Republicans take a break from their own hot mess of a presidential race to boost Bernie Sanders's White House dreams?

Well, no.

American Crossroads, founded by former Bush adviser Karl Rove, and several other conservative-backed super PACs have spent the last month intentionally fueling the Bern, but their zeal has more to do with an effort to weaken Hillary Clinton, whom they still see as the likely Democratic nominee and harder to defeat in the general election.

Pretty innocuous post from a site that's credible to Proglodytes but it still got enough Bern-outs to vote for a hide.

2. Sanders sounding more like Fox news everyday.

Clinton will be the dem nominee. Sanders seems to be trying to make sure she will not be the next president.

What?

      So they can giggle about voting in primaries for Trump, but Rove can't help out their own candidate? Don't look a gift Nadin in the mouth, DUmmies.

      The slow torture of the DUmmies by way or the flagging Sanders campaign is nearly at its apex. Super Tuesday will be one of the greatest days in DU history.

      I christen the day after as DUmmy Wednesday, when Hillary is the nominee and the Great Purge will take place.

Donald Trump and some of the other candidates have also attacked Hillary on her cappy record. Does that mean they are campaigning for Bernie? No, it means they think Hillary is likely to be the Dem nominee.

Anti Jewish or anti female to attack either candidate.  Sick weak barely humans worry so much about language that perhaps offends them.
