93. I agree. The primaries are Round One. Hillary shouldn;t have hurt her own party.
A primary ought to be different than a General Election. \

A general Election is a Zero Sum Game. The winner takes it all, the loser gets nothing.

But a primay is round one. Presumably the winning and losing candidates still shere the same ultimate goal, which is to put a member of their party into office.

Hillary should have bowed out gracefully when it became clear that she couldn;t win without getting nasty and dividing the party.

She chose to do that to satisfy her own personal ambitions at the expense of the Democratic Party.
