If Bernie Sanders wants to be embarrassed, he will be. What a glutton for punishment!

This kind of selfishness has absolutely no place in the Democratic Party.

That's why Bernie has never felt comfortable calling himself a member.

the next 2 Tuesdays. People will openly laugh at the results in Florida, Georgia, Ohio and Illinois. He has absolutely zero chance to be the nominee. This is about campaign donations and loving the sound of his own voice, nothing more. He's completely irrelevant as a candidate going forward. We'd all do well to just focus ahead to fall and ignore the circus.

How can we trust him to lead the revolution if he's not healthy enough to revolt against the 'Establishment'?

reelect Trump...I suppose he doesn't understand this. As much as I have come to dislike Sen. Sanders, I don't think he wants to see Trump reelected.

The Primary season is 4 months long and we only just passed the one month mark.

I understand that Joe has the momentum and will very likely be our nominee.

It’s ok if this plays out a little longer. His supporters want him to stay in.

Hillary did in 08, but he doesn't. And I saw the commercial running in Illinois which you said didn't hurt Biden...it did hurt Biden and this sort of attack by Sanders will continue to weaken our candidate. Sanders needs to go and soon. If the Sanders wing of the Party is thought to have helped Trump win, they will be finished. Honestly, I don't want to see that happen.
