"No one should feel intimidated."

The campaigns were allowed to have observers on site as long as they were few and quiet, so as to minimize pressure on caucus participants. The Sanders observers were instead many and loud. They packed the corner reserved for caucus observers, cheering, waving at caucus-goers, pumping their fists into the air. After the first count showed strong support for the Vermont senator, one Sanders campaign staffer cried. During the realignment, when it was perhaps most important for them to let the caucus participants make their choices absent outside urging, they chanted “Bernie, Bernie, Bernie” and pointed toward the Sanders side of the room.

6. Convincing others to join a winning team is not pressuring

It’s smart campaigning.

Since when is blatant disregard for rules "smart campaigning"?

8. I thought it was after first count

Second rebalance is all about getting more numbers from those without 15 percent.

5. Leadership qualities seem to be sorely lacking

A true leader would strongly encourage decorum from his supporters.

10. As a lifelong Dem

who has voted Democrat for the last 48 years, and as a member of DU for over 15 years, I wonder why someone here would even post such a thing.

On edit:

I suggest you keep the pettiness to a minimum

I was about to post earlier that I'm beginning to feel like supporters of Democrats are being bullied and threatened by supporters of non-Democrats.

if you want Sanders to have the best chance in the GE

I'm not aware that Sen Sanders has won the nomination. Do you know something we don't know about the, ahem, "oppositions (sic) strategy"?
