No one is begging for anything. To suggest it is childish and ignorant. All those wasted posts you guys made too, just to show off your immaturity Gee.

And there's no reason to suspend anyone's campaign either. He knows he lost. When he gets out is entirely up to him and it should not affect anything HRC is doing. It may be a good thing, honestly.

If you need to be concerned about anything, it should be voter turnout, which is HRC's problem. She owns that one all by herself. If she does nothing to bring over a large majority of his supporters, it's all over anyway. Start using your energy to get her focused on this task. As it sits right now, I have seen her do absolutely nothing. Apparently she thinks she can do it on her own without this valuable resource, which will be a big mistake. She thinks she can walk the walk, and talk the talk? Well, NOW is the time for it.

I'm ready for someone to convince me that HRC is where my vote should go. (crickets)
