Very tired calls for Senator Sanders to step aside before the end of the primary season. Unethical in my opinion.

But it doesn't matter, Clinton will get delegates in California too and he's so far behind now, especially after today, he's done.

Despite what anyone says, I support Bernie all the way. I am ok with him focusing on the platform if he wants.

H will not have enough delegates to be nominated without the supers. In the meantime we can still raise hell.

Something expected could happen, even something unexpected.

We can trust Bernie is fighting until the convention.

on DU reposting RW anti-Hillary crap. I think it must make them feel better. A nap would probably be a better idea for them.

Sanders will need to win every remaining state by 30 points to catch up to Clinton in pledged delegates, something he has done in just one primary- Vermont.

Hillary can lose every state from here on out and still the pledged delegate majority.

Couldn't agree more, Skink. You know, I'm a Marylander and Martin O'Malley remarked to a reporter yesterday during the election here, that he thinks Sanders can win California. That was my favorite comment all day.

As soon as I get done reading the few sane threads in this place, I'm sending Bernie some encouragement and appreciation in the form of another donation.

Aside from Bernie continuing being a no-brainer and the right thing to do, there are wild cards in this deck. So we'll see what we will see.

And for entertainment, I've got my popcorn all set to see how Hillary plans to take on Trump.

To quote the movie Elizabethtown, "there's a difference between a failure and a fiasco". Hillary has been testing the width of that difference for some time now.
