538 just updated their odds, Sanders odd of winning now 1/100 down from 1/50

He's done

The new polls for tomorrow just slaughtered his chances i think

He will not drop out until or during the DNC convention. All the meantime inflicting as much harm on our eventual nominee in same way he did to hillary. Sanders allegiance is to sanders and his pie-in-th-sky dreams

10. Bernie is never known for doing the right thing.

He does what he thinks benefits him the most and doesn't seem to care about anybody or anything else. I really hate his photoshopped disengenuous ad about Biden where the tape is so edited it says things Biden never said.

I am all in favor of Bernie staying in the race until this happens.

But then what?

11. Its over but I wonder how this is going to play out with Bernie and his supporters.

Just two weeks ago Bernie was flying high and Biden was nearly left for dead. The turn around has been so rapid I do wonder if Bernie and his supporters can deal with it psychologically. They could get angry and lash out and blame "establishment" Democrats and the DNC for "rigging" the election. It could get ugly. But the good thing is there is quite a bit of time between now and the convention and hopefully over time common sense will prevail and most will realize the only way forward is to support Joe and defeat Trump.

12. They were already going to regardless when they would lose. Spoilt children many of them.

Not all but many of them who are hardcore will like nothing better than to have a scorched earth policy.

Especially since the Bernie Bros all say that Sanders is a one in a million candidate.
