Hillary did win Nevada at the caucus in March.

Some Bernie supporters have tried to steal it TWICE since then, once at the county convention and again at the state convention. Yes, twice.

But they failed ... and made total fools of themselves in the process. But that isn't their version, of course.

If this experience doesn't prove that caucuses should be replaced by primaries, I don't know what will. But some Bernie supporters have demonstrated that they are essentially rule-challenged. Those "supporters" are libertarians who want only to disrupt unless they get their way.
