Ted was trying to strategically turn it because he was completely losing the healthcare debate.

until taxes on the wealthy are increased significantly nothing will ever change

That still wouldn't be enough to pay for Bernie's plans, and once you raise the rate over a certain point you actually start losing revenue. Look at what happened in France with Hollande's 75% tax bracket. He believed in it until it was proven to him to be counter-productive.

This.

This Debate is exactly what's needed. as I said before, crucifiying the GOP in public no holds barred debates with the exact same style as bernie must be the norm for the DNC from this point forward, if you ever wanted to see a killer example of completely loving over the GOP's slime, this was it.

Now is the time for the left to fight, it has the brains, it has the numbers, the only real obstacle in it's path is Ironically, the DNC itself.

Actually the obstacle in the path is the electoral system of the united states
