(5,191 posts)I don't recall Bernie's supporters being unhappy about his wins in OK, or UT, or WY. And why should they? This isn't the general election -- that shit doesn't matter. Delegates matter, and once again Sanders has fallen far, far short of his target.

Hahaha
At this point a close win is as bad as a loss for Bernie.
At best it's a few more delegates but it's one more
contest off the table.
Of course Bernies more enthusiastic supporters seem to over look that part.

He can't "nearly tie" and stay current.

If Sanders doesn't disavow the disgraceful behavior of a small but disruptive number of his fans, he'll end up with the speaking spot right before the maintenance team comes in with the vacuum cleaners.

(6,719 posts)yes, she is ahead but total and smashing seem a little over blown, and I want you to be happy.

More 'business opportunities' in the Middle East.
More refugees.
More protection of the banking racket.
More money in the political process here.
Business as usual.
We are about finished, I'm afraid.
