CNN gives Biden Social Security lifeline, Bernie pounces
The corporate mainstream media continued to play favorites even in the one on one debate. CNN's Dana Bash tried to stymie Bernie Sanders' Social Security challenge of Joe Biden's past positions. Bernie would have none of it.

It's going to be refreshing to just turn the page and only focus on winning in November.
