Stupid shit Bernie supporters say

Is there any?

Surely there must be some, considering how many gems I regularly see coming from the other side.

Currently my personal favorite is probably, "Mathematically, Bernie can't win. Even if he were to take all the remaining delegates, it still wouldn't be enough."

Righhht. So even though he's currently about 280 behind, he could take the remaining (almost) 900, and it wouldn't matter? Okaaay. (I guess we're supposed to admire their confidence that Bernie wouldn't be able to scrape together the remaining 50 or so SDs he'd need to clinch it?)

Certainly our side has put out some memes of equal brilliance?

"Mathematically, Bernie can't win. Even if he were to take all the remaining delegates, it still wouldn't be enough." is probably correct.

Even if every voter including the Clintons voted for Bernie, that is not a large enough number to offset the algorithms they have built into the voting machines.

the Democratic Party in forty years has and is the Bernie Sanders Campaign. We are experiencing a Civics lesson as we speak. This is going all the way to Philly,and that has to do with Bernie and his teaching moment for the United States,and this is awaking the Nation. This is the best think for the Dems and both candidates.
