Remember when Bernie first entered the race, and Clinton acolytes predicted he "might" win one state

[bvar22]

Bernie has been serving up a lot of crow since then on a regular basis.

[font size=4] 2,383.[/font]

That’s the number of delegates Hillary Clinton needs to reach to secure the Democratic nomination without super-delegates. Nate Silver — the nation’s top polling expert — says it is “very possible” she won’t get to that number, which means Bernie Sanders will be in Philadelphia this summer trying to make his case to super-delegates that he’s more electable than Hillary.

A case which, not for nothing, all present polling data passionately supports (see both above and below) . But somehow Bernie should seriously consider “standing down”?

I believe it is Hillary who should "stand down".
It is more than clear that she doesn't have the momentum to carry through the General Election.
Supreme Court picks are tantamount.
Democrats should come together to support the man who can win the GE.

1. the conservadems idea of campaigning is always "we'll win 80% of the votes because our

candidate is glorious and doesn't need your votes and it'll be all YOUR fault when they lose!"

2. Today they suddenly are whining about the long standing formats

3. So Silver reached the same conclusion I reached this morning

WOW.

By the way, I think the other side will have a Trump problem.

Though if you want a headache of a primary, the R california one will be "fun." The D side is more just standard

4. K&R Yes, for the good of the country, she should stand down; her campaign is in deep trouble and th

the legal situation becomes increasingly dire; the email leaks are deeply troubling and raise a whole new set of legal problems

5. I remember one DUer delighting and looking forward to Bernie's supporters tears

post Super Tuesday. I've since put that one on ignore.

They underestimated how strong a candidate Bernie is, and just how fed up with establishment politics for the 1% many of us are. Why is the number of Independent registrations growing? Because the GOP and the Democratic Party are corrupt and serving moneyed interests and not people. It is why their gal doesn't far well in states with open primaries.

The enemy isn't Bernie. It is the corrupt system, and it hurts us all no matter gender, race, or economic background. Anyone so wrapped up in hate over Bernie and supporters that would rather dance in tears vs fix a corrupt system that creates worldwide tears and pain will never get it. I don't expect Hillary nor people like this enabling the system to stand down or move. We just need to keep on and getting Bernie elected for the good of all of us.

6. yeah--I noticed awful little crowing about how they were just glad that Clinton

backers' Easter breakfast has been ruined!

that's what the party's become--"unconditonals" who openly don't care about the policies passed, don't care about fraud, don't care about records, don't even care about the GE: they just want to punish anyone who takes initiative on their own and unapproved

basically they just want victory because the other guy loses, and then they'll be able to jeer and high-five one another that the others LOST. LOSERS

that's one of the reasons they get caught with past posts ripping into Clinton in no uncertain terms--same way Brock operates

7. Judging by failed predictions alone

which are relentless in their failure, yes it is time to start dialing down for the good of the party and maybe smart to start getting some concessions good for her broken wing of the Dem party.

It is nice to know when people at least somewhat informed about Sanders get a chance that the pro Hillary memes and numbers can be automatically discounted by a hefty margin- the only mystery being the other means being employed in certain areas.
