Showing Original Post only (View all)I'm curious: What is your end game with Bernie? [View all]
Do you guys (Bernie supporters) think that something magical will happen that will allow him to become the nominee?
Seriously...what is your end game here? Because even when POTUS has to point out some basic math, it's pretty clear the writing is on the wall.
So, at what *cost* does this continue? "It's all cool, as long as HRC isn't the nominee"? <<<--- Because math is math, and she is *going* to be the nominee.
Many have said that the longer Bernie stays in this race, the more damage he does to his influence. At this point, the *only* thing he can accomplish is helping Republicans to win. He is becoming Nader circa 2000.
But this is the DEMOCRATICunderground. Not "GeenPartyunderground" or "Revolutionunderground". And in this DEMOCRATIC primary, with the rules already in place before Bernie even registered as a Dem, (aside: I will politely point out that Hillary Clinton had more popular votes than Obama when she bowed out in '08 <because she knew how to do math> and Bernie does NOT have a higher popular vote count, OR a delegate count for that matter)and Hillary Clinton will be the nominee.
How long does this continue?
