30. As a stroing supporter of President Obama, I am not happy with sanders' attacks

I am a proud member of the Democratic Party and I am not happy with sanders or his attacks. I will support the nominee of the party but I doubt that sanders will be the nominee. sanders needs some support from Obama supporters to be the nominee and that is NOT going to happen. I seriously doubt that sanders will get any support from Clinton supporters. Sanders support has really declined and I do not see a path for sanders getting the nomination.

People keep bringing up that "over the last 10 years Democrats have lost about 1,000 seats"... George II Dec 2019 #12
The quote was from before the 2018 elections. thesquanderer Dec 2019 #17
It's closer to 900 than it is to 1,000 - why not use 900? And in one day in November 2018.... George II Dec 2019 #36
Actually, I just googled, and found a number of references that it was *over* a thousand. thesquanderer Dec 2019 #42
