DAY 5 OF SPOILER WATCH

[onehandle]

​Hillary Clinton conceded 80 days before the Democratic Convention in 2008.

Today marks day 75 before the 2016 Democratic Convention.

Every day Senator Sanders does not concede, does damage to our nominee, and makes his eventual endorsement of Hillary Clinton less believable.

The Republican Nominee, Donald Trump, is already using Senator Sanders own words against the Democratic Nominee, Hillary Clinton.

Every moment Senator Sanders continues to campaign, will be used by the GOP.

Senator Sanders can concede and have his delegates represented at the convention, just like Hillary did in 2008. Senator Sanders can still be voted for in the few remaining primaries.

Senator Sanders is much farther behind Hillary Clinton at this point in 2008, than Hillary Clinton was behind President Obama.

It’s time to concede, Senator Sanders. The General Election has begun.

Every day over 80 days will reveal what failing to concede brings us.

1. Yawn.

I hope he withholds his concession and endorsement until after the first ballot at the convention.

And I'll keep sending him money until he fails me.

[Hoyt]

2. Most Sanders' supporters don't really care.

[Bleacher Creature]

3. Some people just want to watch the world "Bern."

[YouDig]

4. Some extreme Sanders supporters want Trump to be president.

That's the only logical excuse for some of what we're seeing.

[AgingAmerican]

5. She doesn't have enough delegates

No need to concede when she hasn't won

[Logical]

6. More pure BS from you, please prove "Every day Senator Sanders does not concede, does damage"

[HassleCat]

7. Same tune since Iowa. (eom)

[Jim Lane]

15. Actually, since before Iowa. (n/t)

[rhett o rick]

8. Clinton concerned for the promise of the SoS position. nm

9. Oh wow, sounds like Hillary really needs to get her shit together.

Word around here is she defeated Sanders months ago. Word around here is Sanders is a socialist, non-democrat, racist, sexist, communist old man who promises unicorns, pills, and free college. Word around here is he has zero chance and never had better than zero chance. Word around here is he's grifting for campaign funds so he can vacation at the Vatican. Word around here is he likes mass shootings.

But she's still losing states to him. Odd.

10. You do realize there are still elections right?

I know, I know, why care about elections? Incidentally, this is part of the attitude that tells me elections are no longer legitimate. It is easy to do that when the people don't give two fucks about it.

[Fawke Em]

11. Screw that.

He's about to go on another winning streak.

Plus, if he's out. I'm out.

[ThePhilosopher04]

12. She does enough self-inflicted damage on her own. Viva Bernie! Never fucking surrender!

[jillan]

13. Are you enjoying the GE coverage? CNN spent 2 hours tonite talking about Bill's sex life.

Both on AC360 and on Don Lemon.
Why? Because Trump is talking about it.

They had panels discussing all the women Bill slept with.

Enjoy yourself - have a great time fighting Trump instead of Bernie

[Jim Lane]

14. Clinton didn't concede until after the primaries were over.

I live in New Jersey. I haven't gotten to vote yet. Why are you trying to, in effect, suppress my vote, and that of literally millions of other Americans whose states vote in late May or in June?

Counting backward from the date of the convention just screams of special pleading.

[MrMickeysMom]

16. Prayers for your unicorn...

You need hope, so you have that.

[azurnoir]

17. Clinton conceded for a SoS position and $22,000,000 payoff of her campaign debt

[John Poet]

18. You mean, Day Five of your 'spoiler' SPAM posts?

That must be what you mean. They fit the definition.
