I dunno, it always seems to me that in the 2 months leading up to election day, there seems to me ubiquitous bitching about having to vote for the lesser of two evils.
There are a two main reasons I think Bernie has a real chance. First, he has more or less the same populist message that got Obama into office in '08, except he actually has a remarkably consistent 30+ year voting record to back it up. Second, he's really good at evading the soundbite. Listen to him explain his policy stances to this bearded child sitting on his friend's shoulders in a 3 piece suit:
I'm going to have a lot of free time this year and you better believe I will be helping Bernie win Florida in the primary.
