(50,254 posts)was centrist and anti-insurgent, virtually all of them pro-HRC. And those caucuses had been around for decades. It's not as if the caucus system was invented in 2008 as an anti-HRC conspiracy, and the caucus results weren't illegitimate just because HRC happened to do badly in caucus states both times(she also lost primaries to Bernie in several states and won in the Iowa caucuses). After 2008, HRC's strategists should have learned how to organize in caucus states. It's nobody else's fault that they chose to treat the caucuses as if they didn't matter.
Hillary was nominated. That's fine. She won and almost all Sanders people ended up accepting that. It doesn't mean the Sanders phenomenon wasn't legitimate or real. It's enough to say she came out ahead at Philly.
