2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: I'm resigned to the fact Clinton will be given the party nomination but [View all]mythology
(9,527 posts)1. Is it really so damn hard for some Sanders supporters to just admit that Clinton
is winning both the popular vote and the delegate count? She isn't being given the nomination. She's winning it because more people are voting for her in the primaries. This is not complicated.
Saying that she's being given the nomination is on par with Republicans deciding to call the Democratic party the Democrat party. It's petty silliness that should go away.

She was given it in the same way the Golden State Warriors were given the Larry O'Brien trophy.

I will likely register as an independent. What's stopped me so far is voting for Bernie.

Yeah, that's true. I tried to make sure they couldn't use that tired old meme.
