49. I hope the superdelegates realize that, while they may have no choice by to alienate 49.9%
of our party, they will only make it worse if they compound that if they nominate one that doesn't represent the "popular will" as expressed in the primaries and caucuses.

Absent a "unity ticket", which is highly unlikely IMHO, there are going to be a lot of disappointed Democrats - probably more than usual since there is an "identity" aspect to the support that each candidate attracts, which has been absent in the past. I frankly do not envy the superdelegates.
