I supported Obama in 2008. I didn't hesitate to support Hillary this time.

Why? Because Hillary didn't hesitate to support whole-heartedly once the race was over. She got on board with Obama for the good of the party and the good of the country, putting aside whatever personal disappointment she had. PUMA trolls aside, her supporters followed suit.

Bernie won't be running next time, but there probably will be a candidate that is an heir to Bernie's legacy. If Bernie's supporters were interested in the long game, it would be wise to get on board with Hillary after the primary is over. If a "Bernie or Bust" temper tantrum helped Trump win the White House, those supporting Hillary will have a bad taste in their mouths in 2020.

"My way or the highway" is a two-way street.

1. That makes no sense.

Your options are no real progressive candidate until 2024, or no real progressive candidate until 2024.

2. Then you will now shut up until the time in the race that Hillary did what you say she did?

Thanks, that intellectual and moral consistency from you will be refreshing.

3. Depends what you mean by "shut up"

If you mean saying Bernie should drop out, I don't think I've ever done that.

If you mean pointing out that he's basically already lost, I said the same thing about Hillary toward the end in '08
