I think Nevada was Sanders' last stand and he lost. After this the losses are going to get bigger and bigger until he's in O'Malley territory and the only exit is a nice speech. He won't be able to claim a groundswell because there isn't any except maybe in NH and VT so there goes the 3rd party scenario though I have no doubt he'd do it if the story was different.

Let Trump split the ticket. I can't shake the suspicion he's in this to help the Clintons but that would definitely help.
