Bernie Sanders Wins New Hampshire
W.J. Astore
Bernie Sanders wins New Hampshire -- as well as Iowa -- and what headline do I see at NBC News?
Bernie Sanders is now the front-runner — and moderates may be too divided to stop him
Why is it necessary to "stop" Bernie Sanders? What is so radical about Medicare for all, free college tuition, student debt relief, a higher minimum wage, and tax reform that benefits workers?
The next few months are going to be hard to endure for any American with a brain. For example, Chris Matthews at MSNBC equates Bernie's democratic socialism with hardcore communism and suggests Bernie's policies could end with him being executed in Central Park. No -- I'm not kidding!

In another delusional MSNBC video, Bernie's supporters are compared to Nazi Brownshirts:
Chuck Todd Cites Quote Calling Sanders Supporters "Digital Brownshirt Brigade"
As covered here at Real Clear Politics.
So, the reality is that Bernie Sanders not only has to defeat "moderates" like Mayor Pete and Amy Klobuchar (a strong third in New Hampshire). He has to overcome the Democratic National Committee and the mainstream media, especially MSNBC.
Speaking of MSNBC and its negative and cynical coverage of Bernie, not all voters are fooled:

As one reader commented on our Facebook page, "OMG exactly the same tactics as in UK [United Kingdom] over [Jeremy] Corbyn followers. Trotsky rabble, Corbineestas, etc."
Well, if you can't beat 'em, smear 'em as a red, as dangerously radical, or alternatively as thuggish Brownshirted fascist Bernie Bros.
The establishment's desperation is obvious. Go Bernie!
