He's a 70-year-old baby, in reality. The taxpayers have fed and clothed him for 26 years (more if you count Burlington), and all he does is cry, cry, cry, and produce copious amounts of shit that others have to clean up.

We have the polls showing most Sanders supporters will back Clinton in the general. Time to cut bait on the rest of the true believers.

Thought if the GOP was doing it he was also getting on that level!

because that's the only way that he will ever become president. Unless, we decide to run an 83 year old in 2024.

They have been so afraid to not alienate his voters, but I think that doing it now, six months from the general election is the best time. Those who are truly liberal, and want the country to go in that direction will eventually vote for Hillary. And those who are just radicals likely never would have.

I think the sooner he is out the better. No matter whether we do it now or later, it won't be pretty. His deceived supporters are going to believe he was robbed and will behave badly no matter when it happens. Although, personally, I would prefer he lost a race first.

to still contend with Bernie even though he has no chance of getting the nomination. I think if Elizabeth Warren would come out and say it's time for Bernie to step aside and endorse Hillary it would be a big help. But I don't expect she will.

We are witnessing the REAL Bernie Sanders now, the "my way or the highway" zealous one-note aging socialist who is giving us all a very clear picture of just how delusional he would be were he president.
