I am a general Sanders fan but I’ve not liked Weaver very much this whole election. He has come across as rude, sarcastic, and just not all that competent.

Chris Matthews was telegraphing that tax return gotcha from a mile away, and Weaver waltzed straight into it, and it was glorious. He’s got that perma-smirk of the asshole in the poli-sci class who genuinely believes he’s smarter than everyone else in the room when he’s demonstrably NOT.
Weaver is in over his head. Did you catch his conversation with Chris Matthews and Barney Frank? You have to be really incompetent if someone like Tweety Bird is destroying you in an interview.
But we all knew that already. SuperPACs have only existed since 2010. Before the Citizens United ruling (made for a film against Hillary Clinton), corporations and unions were incapable of donating to campaigns. There was an individual limit of $2,500 and that’s it. And, unless he defeats Clinton, it won’t prove that…
Didn’t Obama do it with mostly ‘micro-donations’? In any event, good to see that it can be done.
His campaign manager was just terrible.
Fascinating. All that money and Sanders did that bad means to me his campaign manager isn't getting that same job any time soon.
Please, PLEASE stay home in Novemeber. It wouldn't be right for you to vote for her.
Vermonters generally are happy with Sanders, but that’s an average and Vermont is a small state. A few big donors can skew it pretty easily. The % of Vermonters who donated would be more indicative of a happy constituency.
I mean, I’d really hope his home state would be the top contributor.
So, can at least Jezebel (if not Gawker) get behind Hillary now as the Democratic nominee? Can you stop the side-eye sniping at her and the blind acceptance of any criticism the Sanders campaign lobs over the increasingly higher fence?
Like I’m so mad at myself that I even bothered to comment over there. But like I said that childish bully bullshit they pull on Hillary constantly on the main page is the very same shit that got Bush elected over Gore because the dumb people literally cast votes based on who was cooler to have a beer with. Our country…
It's driving me crazy. He's on every freaking network and never makes a coherent point or plausible statement and even when a journalist tries to push him to clarify or points out that what he's saying is wrong, trump just goes about with his verbal diarrhea.
I agree royal blue is gorgeous on her, but today people are wearing orange for National Gun Violence Awareness Day. I assume that’s why she chose to wear it today.
It was so bad!!!!!!! It's like they missed the whole point of the speech, and why a speech like this is the way defeat Trump.
I believe she’s wearing it because the Every Town organization that is against gun violence is having a “wear orange” day for awareness. Luckily for me I bought one of their water bottles so I didn't actually have to wear orange.
Feeling very grateful to The Slot for such an insightful critique because I just read a similar story over on the Gawker main page and was so stupid and childishly snarky that I nearly stroked out.
Sure, if you ignore all of her accomplishments, she’s done nothing.
arguing that his showmanship lacked the depth and insight necessary to govern a country, let alone control one of the world’s largest nuclear stockpiles.
