14. I think I'll dust off my very first post at DU

Not that it's that great of a post (none of mine are) but the sentiment remains the same. To write Sanders off before actual votes are tallied is whistling past the graveyard. To call Sanders supporters 'petulant children' does a disservice to thinking people who happen to disagree. I'll certainly vote for whoever emerges from the fray, but I remember Hillary hanging around long past her mathematical shelf life against Obama in case he stumbled and fell, and I don't see why all the hand-wringing about Sanders, who has not been eliminated, not by a long shot yet. Just let the process play out.

edit: my spelling and grammar is horrible
