Yeah yeah, I know what they want. Or think they want. For Sanders to call a press conference and with a tear in his eye, beg forgiveness for ever criticizing the party status quo, for not signing up to the party from day one. I think even then that wouldn't be enough for some.
Ain't gonna happen. Accept it. Sanders is a free radical in American politics. I don't know why an anomaly like that is so hard to absorb for some. So what if a popular, hard-working ally, who is a leader in bringing out issues and co-signing progressive bills and bi-partisan Veteran health bills, has a stubborn grumpy old man streak to him, and isn't going to change now anyways. Glass half full people!
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
