Weaver just said that Bernie is still running for the Democratic nomination

[redstateblues]

WTF?

[firebrand80]

1. So is Rocky De La Fuente nt

[onehandle]

2. Also said they are not talking to Superdelegates.

Which means that it's not an active campaign and also that Superdelegates are not a problem to them any longer.

They've quit, without saying they quit.

[w4rma]

3. How often does Bernie Sanders need to say that he's going to fight to the convention?

You must not be used to politicians keeping their word.

[redstateblues]

8. That's different than still running for the nomination. That is delusional

[frazzled]

10. At this point, the fight would appear to be shadow boxing

I don't even know what he means by "fight to the convention." They've already given him representation on the platform committee, and they'll surely give him a speaking spot. As for changing the party's system: he has zero leverage over that one. All that gives him leverage, I guess, is the threat to have his delegates disrupt the convention.

It's really quite pathetic in a way, and it makes me sad that he can't seem to bring himself to be a statesman rather than a fly in the ointment. But I keep giving him another few days, a week ... I'm not encouraged, though.

This wasn't even a close election. 2008 was close: 48 to 48% pretty much. This time there was a 12 point spread. Every election season someone wins and someone loses. Usually the loser is graceful. Never have I seen them demand special rights because they came in second. It's so incredibly curious.

[LiberalFighter]

16. They haven't given him a parking spot yet.

[joshcryer]

12. That directly contradicts his vow to support the nominee.

This shit is coming from Weaver.

[WhiteTara]

31. THe candidate did not say he would support the nominee

he said he would work to keep Trump out of the WH.

I think that Jane is a great instigator. She had designs on redecorating the Residence.

[Tal Vez]

4. I heard him say that they are still talking.

Clinton and Sanders know how this is going to end. There will be an agreement that both sides will agree to work to make the process more democratic and Sanders will endorse Clinton.

[-none]

5. Hillary does not have the required number of delegates to win.

Therefore Bernie has not lost yet. It is for the Democratic Convention to decide.

[WhiteTara]

29. In his dreams.

[Lord Magus]

34. Yes she damned well does have the required number of delegates to win. -nt-

[-none]

36. Sorry, she is short of the number needed to win.

She may have more delegates, but she is still short of the needed number to win.

[Lord Magus]

40. She's got 2767.

2383 are needed to win.

[-none]

41. Supers don't count. Yet anyway.

You will have to wait until the convention.

[Lord Magus]

42. Yes they do count.

Yelling that they don't count doesn't make it so.

[-none]

44. Supers only count at the convention, not before.

And I was not yelling, so why are you saying I am?

[obamanut2012]

45. yes, they do count, NOW

[-none]

46. The rules say, Not till the convention.

The convention has not started yet.

[auntpurl]

6. That's it, I'm getting in the race.

There's still time, right?

Can I count on your vote?

[eastwestdem]

7. What are they trying to do? Being illusive for the sake of pissing off the media? nt

[pat_k]

9. Quote?

[laserhaas]

11. It aint over ...till its over

[Jennylynn]

17. :)

[laserhaas]

20. I wish the bouncy guys came in different colors

And different rhythms

[Jennylynn]

22. lol, that would be cute.

[LonePirate]

28. It was over on Tuesday when the polls closed for the last primary.

[mcar]

13. I have never understood this campaign's strategy

[joshcryer]

14. I just realized, Sanders fake supporters are Weaverites.

There was a comment I saw earlier mocking the idea that Sanders had no qualms ending his career by taking it to the convention.

[jzodda]

15. Poor Bernie

He had a great opportunity to come fully onboard and would go back to the Senate as a party leader. Once Clinton is elected he would have clout and could push his priorities.

Now he will ensure that he be relegated to the back benches. Make good speeches and get zero done as they all eye roll at the mention of his name.

[NurseJackie]

18. You see, it's like this ...

[hollysmom]

19. are people pretending they don't know how negotiations work?

you don't give up before you get something you want. otherwise you would get nothing, Ask Clinton she got Obama to help raise money for her debt for 4 years until she could get back her personal loan. Did she get it by saying, OK you won? no she held out for 4 days while they worked it out.
Honestly I really wonder what kind of world people live in that they don't know the basics of negotiations.

[laserhaas]

21. Actually...it's called fear.

You dont see elephants worry about predators

Nir a liin about a bunny running around

But...lions get ruffled when leopards are near

Just sayin.....

[stevenleser]

24. With arguments like those I see how you ended up as a vexatious litigant

in multiple jurisdictions.

Judges didn't want to hear anymore nonsense like that so they pulled the plug.

[msanthrope]

32. Indeed. That is the legal judgment upon the merits. nt

[stevenleser]

23. The Democratic nomination for dog catcher. nt

[bkkyosemite]

27. So disrespectful

[stevenleser]

37. Sore losers arent worthy of much respect. nt

[bkkyosemite]

47. Disrespectful people who think they are winners aren't worthy of much respect.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

25. Lol

[bkkyosemite]

26. Why does that surprise you? You believed the MSM?

[TNProfessor]

30. Keep donating!

[Nonhlanhla]

33. Nuts.

[Cha]

35. shhh.. don't tell them it's over.

[LexVegas]

38. Who?

[bigwillq]

39. Cool

Thanks for letting me know. And thanks for keeping Bernie front and center. Appreciate your efforts.

[NorthCarolina]

43. Glad to hear it. -nt-
