fellow Clinton supporters: chillax about Bernie

[geek tragedy]

he's not trying to flip superdelegates
he's not campaigning against Clinton
he's not complaining about the process being rigged
he's not making any public demands

His speech last night didn't mention the nomination, or victory.

Is he doing so in a way that makes Clinton supporters happy? Of course not! We're not the ones he needs to bring along.

You won. We won. Enjoy the moment.

1. then why is he asking for more money?

[geek tragedy]

2. 1) debt; 2) wants to transition his campaign infrastructure

especially his database and IP to an OFA-type of organization--keeping the techies on staff requires money; 3) he needs money to wind the campaign down--still need accountants, pay for convention expenses, etc.

if a candidate isn't talking about victory or the nomination, they're done.

4. I recall being asked for money for Hillary's 08 debt after Obama was in office and she was

Sec of State. She ended her campaign with massive debts. Obviously you know this. That coy routine is what it is, and it's not much.

3. No way to tell

what he's really upto. Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.

5. It costs nothing to be gracious

And it's naïve to believe his campaign accomplished nothing, or that there is some healing needed between now and the convention.

8. Good on you.

My position remains unchanged, and it has been the same for a while now.

I can still say I will vote for her. Not happy about it.
I still don't think she can win. Can only wish her supporters luck.
I intend to convince people to vote for local elections. That to me is what makes a difference.

So, it's good to see this, though I understand that it will be quite some time for some individuals to purge certain behavior out of their system.

9. I'm pretty chill.

Also, I still have a boat load on ignore. That helps too
