Enough, Bernie, enough: Sanders needs to hang it up

[Night Watchman]

Editorial from the New York Daily News...

After decisively losing the nomination of a party that was never his political home, Bernie Sanders is revealing egotism of practically Trumpian proportions.

Sanders insists that he deserves powerful sway over the Democratic Party and Hillary Clinton, whom he savaged during the campaign as an “unqualified” stooge of Wall Street.

As they say at closing time: Bernie, you don’t have to go home, but you can’t stay here.

Their words, not mine. Thing is, though, I agree with those words!

1. This movement is not going away.

You guys keep thinking this was about the primaries and now the nearly half the party that supported Bernie are just gonna shrug their shoulders and go away. Not. Gonna. Happen. This is about long term change and reforming the system and the Democratic Party can embrace that or get left behind.

5. You've got it right...I'm with you all the way on this!!!

2. Hah ... The movement isn't going away ... indeed ...

But this thread is going away now ....

4. So what was the Vote?

Hey, just curious.

6. The primaries were fixed...the Hill will last one term unless she's indicted before this is over.

3. Your extensive history with DU should've taught you some things by now:

One, there are people here with actual principles, and two, most DUers don't like the NY Daily News telling them what to do.

7. Wait, so this election we only choose a President for Democrats?

Because I am pretty sure non-democrats will be voting too

This isn't' about protecting the power status of the party. IF you think it is you are part of the problem.

8. The movement Bernie started isn't going away,...ever!

Queen Hillary can either start LISTENING to the real progressives among the Democrats and championing their causes or watch them abandon her AND the political party that, apparently, abandoned them a long time ago.

And if you think Bernie is in this for the ego trip, I've got 2 things to say to you...
1. You don't know shit about Bernie Sanders.
2. Take a long look at your chosen candidate and tell me that she's just in this to help the 'little guys'. Go ahead,...tell me.........with a straight face!
