Will tens of thousands turn out to see bernie talk about his platform? Hell yes!
Will tens of thousands turn out to see Bernie talk about how we should support Hillary against Trump?
That is not going to happen.

(25,699 posts)All her life, she's coasted. She coasted on being white. She coasted on being wealthy. She coasted on her name. None of her supporters have ANY idea of why she ought to be president, aside from "Well, it's her turn!" or "It's time for her!" or other vague mush-mouthed nonsense. She has no platform, no accomplishments, and all of her enthusiasm centers around the fact that she is not Donald Trump. Except she's more similar to him than not, with her negrophobia, her islamophobia, her current campaign's antisemtic dog-whistling, her imperialism, her hawkishness, and her constant spinning and flip-flopping. Most similarly, she's nothing but a celebrity candidate. She's as qualified to be president as her friends Kim and Kanye.

(14,255 posts)I just saw someone actually drag out that old moldy canard - women who are, "unaccountably", supporting Bernie instead of Hillary merely have mother issues. That sort of sums up the Hillary campaign's thinking - platform? Policies? Record? Deeds? None of that matters, because Hillary is a woman and it is her turn. Barf. And, kind of embarrassing, IMO. Or they should be,.

(2,125 posts)She's never accomplished anything on her own. Just coasting on Bill's coattails. When she gets into a position of power she blows it with her finger-in-the-wind MO, her pandering and her siding with RWers on just about every important issue. She's carried their water more times than I can count.
She's an empty pantsuit.

(3,649 posts)The very first person they quoted was McCaskill. The MSM and the party establishments are alienating millions of people in this country. I saw what they did to Ron Paul, and I see what they're trying to do to Bernie Sanders. If they think they can keep this up without any kind of retaliation they are in for a big surprise.

(4,753 posts)their hand-wringing, whiny pleas! This says a lot about priorities and desperation at the Huffington Post and among the rest of Hillary's surrogates. Stepping on the headline for one of Obama's singular achievements (thanks to Pope Francis and John Kerry) in office is, frankly, unconscionable.
Way to go, Huffington Post, for revealing your true allegiance!

(9,933 posts)But Bernie should quit. Lawmakers have already determined Clinton will be the nominee. No need for us to vote or fight any longer. Got it.

(517 posts)I have resolved that every time this board calls for Bernie to quit, I donate. Until every American has cast their vote, this thing isn't over. Only idiots quit at halftime and we are no quitters. Lets win this thing and prove that the people still matter.

(39,451 posts)Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.
This one really pisses me off since Bernie won her state by a large margin -
Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.)
Sen. Barbara Mikulski (D-Md.).
Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.). (breaks my heart!)
Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York
That's all I can find so far - PLEASE add to the list for the others.
----------------------
On the other hand - I dont think any Democrat should call on him to get out, said Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio). Almost no Democrat I know would say that. And shouldnt. Thank you!!!

I've sent out a number of tweets to the confirmed senators that made this statement, and to several Bernie groups.

(19,053 posts)They are so sure that she has this wrapped up yet they spend an awful lot of energy spewing hate, lies, and garbage at Bernie and his supporters. They should make up their minds alfreakingready. They keep saying that Bernie has no chance, so why are they still all over GD ? Shouldn't they be focusing on the general?
Regardless of the outcome of the election in the fall, there will probably be primary challenges galore from now on. Sorry to the Democratic Corporatists but the toothpaste is now out of the tube.
