Watching PBS and they are interviewing BS delegates

Either the BS delegates sent to Philly are uninformed or they have found the most uninformed.

Two of them flat out said the will not vote for Hillary in November, one was at best undecided. And they all said they would not follow Bernie's request to support Hillary. He created a monster he has no control over.

I say never again should we let somebody run on our party infrastructure who has not helped build it

That monster was there before he came along. There was always going to be an anti-Clinton faction of the democratic party.

If O'Malley had caught fire instead of Bernie we'd be talking about bitter O'Malley supporters right now.

Hillary had going into the primary 55% of the democratic party. It is why no one wanted to run against her.

Her negative is about 20% of that remaining 45% is virulently against her.

How you jump from a democratic socialist to a libertarian still puzzles me.

Most of these people do not have mature political opinions. They are just against what they consider to be the establishment.

To an article before the Cali and NJ primaries that conceded his chances were "slim to none".

HA.
