I always try to find the positive in all our candidates.. but I am finally done [View all]

I am done done done.. I can find nothing positive about what the Sanders campaign is doing right now. Done.. Stick a fork in it.

He is going to lose and lose big today.

I hope he understands, that this loss is one of his own making.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
