Hell I actually saw someone blame "Clinton" supporters (that's turning into a dog whistle in itself) for depressing the turnout of the under 30 crowd. This somehow explained them not voting for Sander's. The list of accusations continues to grow regardless of logic or reason.

that the under-30 demographic is unreliable. If you pin your hopes to that particular group, 9 out of 10 times, you are going to get your heart broken. Been there, done that.... And this is not a dis or an attempt to depress turnout. It is just historical fact.

Is Hillary's fault. Because she got more votes and it's just not fair.
That aside, neither one of them are going to win a GE without the Obama coalition.
Bernie has a problem and many people have tried to point it out. The blatant racist comments about why he lost just highlights the problem. He's not a stupid man, he has to know this.

From the arguments that South Carolina's votes shouldn't count to the master/slave relationship.
I am disgusted.
