Bernie Sanders is going to scare the hell out of Hillary. The Democrat Party, what remains of it, has moved so far to the Progressive Left that it’s left many of its traditional voters behind.

I think there’s a reasonable probability that the Progressive base that turns out for the early primaries will prefer an honest Sanders over a dishonest Hillary, and that he’ll come close to winning Iowa and might even win New Hampshire after voters see how weak Hillary’s results are in Iowa.

If the U.S. has become an out and out socialist country, so be it, but I think it’s much more likely that Sanders leaves the Democrat Party stranded on a Progressive/Socialist island with food and supplies to support only 30% of the voters.

I thought turning the country over to Pelosi and Reid in 2006, and then adding Obama in 2008, would be devastating to our prospects, but I now think the country can recover nicely, given elections since. However, the Democrat Party might never recover from its full-scale lurch to the Left.

For it to really “recover nicely,” we need to rid ourselves of the Boner/Mc Scrotum Neck “GOPE leadership.”
