Which of course poses the danger of him becoming president
It is VERY possible -- and VERY scary. As a Left activist and otherwise someone very likely to be targeted in a neo-fascistic administration, the possibilities are very worrisome
There are all too many smug voices on DU and elsewhere who are totally confident that Hillary has it in the bag ("though we mustn't become complacent"
. But that qualifier is not enough -- Democrats, who are less sure to line up like the GOP (with some exceptions this year, to be sure) need to avoid dumping on and putting down Bernie backers, recently denying him a permit (??) for a rally in Philly, for which he could "reapply". What are these folk doing, trying to elect Trump? Similarly, the VP pick should be someone more helpful to the ticket than a non-exciting neoliberal, tho I fear that is exactly what we are going to get.
Hillary and her surrogates & vocal supporters need to pull out all the stops to lose as absolutely few votes in the broad Democratic base, including Bernie's, as possible, and I don't see that happening.
People getting overly distracted by the internal tensions w/in the GOP are being fooled by a MSM merely making things more interesting and boosting ratings, among other purposes
