Berniementum to Stop or to Continue? a Short Euphoria?

[ericpolitico]

I think is just probably a short euphoria ..and probably going to stop soon...

Progressive-alternative....

still 6 months from now, but maybe Hillary need to be a bit careful....

To continue

[NeverAgain]

In the words of George DUBYA Bush "Don't misunderestimate me".

[Pandaguineapig]

He's a fad candidate he will lose support right before the primaries like Ron Paul and Howard Dean

[NHI]

Continue, but not for much longer.

[MasterJedi]

All the McCain is too old to be President people that are creaming their pants over an older and insane Sanders are highly amusing.

[dudeabides]

I think it's going to continue.

Look, the issues of income inequality he talks about are very real. The question is, what is the cause, and therefore, what are some solutions?

If your a Democrat, you likely believe that corporate greed got us here and if your a Republican, you probably believe excessive taxation and regulation got us here.

Senator Sanders is talking to the Democratic base where as Hillary Clinton is not as strong on these issues because she has not consistently made that her purpose of pursuing the presidency.

So, I'm not sure Senator Sanders can win the nomination of his party for President, but I'm sure he will have some momentum.

[The Other Castro]

As long as Biden doesn't enter (which I highly doubt he will), Sanders will maintain his position as Not-Hillary.

[Crumpets]

Continue in the sense that he won't drop down to pre-surge levels, but stop in the sense that 30% is probably Bernie's ceiling in most of the Country while 45-50% is Hillary's floor.

[Fritz]

It really all depends on how the debates go.  If both Sanders and Clinton put on passable but not exceptional performances, Sanders momentum will die out.  IF Sanders actually excels in a debate, its remotely possible he could upset Hillary.

BTW, when are Democrats debating?  Anyone have a date on that?

[Fuzzy Stands With His Friend, Chairman Sanchez]

People don't really know Sanders yet, although they do know his issues.  Hillary isn't real likable, IMO, but I'm not clear how Sanders will wear long-term.

One reality that is going to set in on the Democrats is that they aren't exactly winning hearts and minds.  Hillary bucks that trend; she leads every GOP contender in nationwide polls.  At the end of the day, Hillary has an electability argument that I believe will wash away a host of negatives with Democratic voters.  Hillary beats all of the GOP.  There's no real evidence that Sanders can beat any of the GOP candidates likely to win the nomination.

Nothing official has been released.  All we know is that they'll begin "in the fall".  This website says that the first two will be in August/September:

but I'm skeptical, because it's already July, so not that much time left to organize these things.  It wouldn't surprise me if the first one wasn't until October.
