Only Sanders voters are going to be proud of whom they are voting for.

Seems to me, anyway.

The hang-ups are troubling. Are they annoyed because you're interrupting dinner?

Or are they.... you know....*embarrassed* ?

Did they hang up before or after they found out you were repping Sanders?

Sorry, meant to post this in reply to the OP.

... and keep it up even if the nomination gets "out of reach."

See this reply to a post about needing to drop out if a candidate doesn't have "the numbers."
