2. I hope he realizes that he'll have to get off his phone and couch

over, and over, and over, and over again during the general election season.

Additionally, because we generally send busloads of volunteers from blue states to swing states during the GE, I'm sure he's also willing to give up his weekends to get on a bus early Saturday and Sunday mornings over, and over, and over, and over again.

I also hope he's ready to get off his phone and couch to do some of the organizing, just in case the reliable base of Democratic volunteers don't feel inspired enough to do the essential unpaid long hours of "grunt work" this time around.

4. That dumb Sanders supporter "thanking" the people "who constantly shit on Bernie and the movement"

would realize, if he was able to think clearly, that the opposition to Bernie and his magical mystery movement was created by Bernie shitting all over the Democratic Party for too many years, and trashing Democratic leaders who were doing the heavy lifting while he was kvetching from the sidelines.

8. Much as Bernie's supporters gave me the drive to support every candidate but him.

But yeah, we get it... you guys are getting as much mileage out of the "Bernie's so oppressed" meme as you can.

So very, very righteous.
