Neither Bernie nor most of his supporters are responsible for the crazies among them

[La Lioness Priyanka]

I remember in 08, there were quite a few HRC supporters who went quite unhinged after Obama won, and I certainly did not want to be held responsible for their insanity, nor did I hold HRC responsible.

There are always a few crazies and the news love to cover said crazies but I still belief most Bernie supporters and Bernie himself are now HRC supporters.

1. Responsible might be harsh, but he could have tamped it down with an earlier endorsement.

2. and his concession after DC

3. maybe, maybe not.

i think he was trying to assuage his ardent followers by demonstrating that the DNC was making concessions to them/him on the party platform.

6. he did admit Hillary won fair and square despite their being issues....

I think the acid test, as it were, is whether his supporters can accept that gracefully and proceed while respecting the people's choice.

7. If I was standing next to a so-called supporter of sanders booing him..i

Would have found a way...

9. getting into fights with unstable people is not particularly useful

[beachbumbob]

10. You don't have to fight...you can yell over them...

I feel for Bernie...no control = weak leadership and proves what many of us have said for months

8. K&R

They appear unstable because they are unstable. I do think an argument can be made that Sanders used, abused, and fomented their instability.
