83. You had an interesting response, Nurse Jackie!

Hello, Nurse Jackie!

“The aggressors,” as you describe them, are not winning Bernie Sanders the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination.

The voting supporters for Hillary Clinton are, as you mention, “elbowing, needling” the voting supporters for Bernie Sanders.

It just goes to show that, sometimes, two sides cannot, and will not, come together.

I guess there could be other tactics.

One of them is, if your preferred candidate is leading a party’s primaries—and is on pace to win that party’s presidential nomination—it may be wise for those on the “winner’s” side to actually move on and not participate on an Internet discussion forum thread expressing why they feel “pity” for the individual voters on the losing side.

I think you, Nurse Jackie, would have no problem filling in for David Brock if he ever has to miss a day’s work on the Hillary Clinton presidential campaign.
