I don't see it as a big deal at all.

You all may think you don't need Sanders, but as Mark Shields said last night, "Bernie Sanders is indispensable to Democrats".

He's not attacking her. He's not going after superdelegates. And really, the only person he may be hurting is himself.

I definitely think he should endorse her prior to the convention but beyond that, it's inconsequential.
