Why are people surprised Bernie didn’t have the votes? I saw somebody say this is what Bernie’s Presidency would have been like. Its what his entire career has been. Lots of talk, but not the work building the coalitions you need for legislative success.

Bernie Sanders has done more to coalesce progressive sensibility in this country then anyone in decades, often in the face of insidious and insulting resistance from those who have half his character.

Half his character? I guess only Satan would have half his character. We're talking about a man who has only worked as a politician, honeymooned in the USSR during the height of the cold war, is a communist, loved Castro, answers every question with "the devil is in the details".

He coalesced them so well that they're blaming the exec branch for the votes in the Senate that Bernie couldn't persuade.
