A Reverse Weekend At Bernie's

It's fun to watch the Democrats decide between Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton.  Bernie has the distinction of being the only candidate running for president who is older than Hillary Clinton.  Even so, Bernie comes across as an energetic fighter, while Hillary not only looks old, but she acts old as well.  Think about it.  When's the last time you saw a video of Hillary bounding onto the stage to make a speech?  She's always moving slowly.  She does only one event a day at most.  She doesn't take questions from the media or even the people at her events.  Most of the time, she sits down during her events (at those small tables she likes.)  The truth is that she looks and acts like a stiff.

In the really awful movie Weekend at Bernies, two guys go to their boss' (Bernie) house for a weekend only to find that he is dead.  Without explaining the rest of the story, it is enough to know that they spend the next days dragging the corpse around trying to make him look still alive.  That's sort of the present role of the Clinton campaign; they are trying to make Hillary look like she's still alive.
