Step aside, Salon, because Mother Jones’ David Corn needs room so he can also help spin Bernie Sanders’ “rape fantasies” essay from 1972:

Before pubbing story w/ Sanders "sex" essay, we concluded it wasn't perverse, just 70s exploration of sexual dynamics http://t.co/1u6oo8UhjN

Classic! Corn probably needed Dramamine after that spin session:

.@DavidCornDC And you concluded that Mitt just wanted to let his dog get fresh air, right? Always give benefit of the doubt?

@DavidCornDC @timothypmurphy So being a politically active col. student around trendy circles excuses suggesting women dream of being raped?

Going out on a limb to say that Corn wouldn't hand wave this away if Sanders were Republican:https://t.co/F47PuaCKR8
