Sounds more like something a King would do or a democrat that wants to act like a King. Bernie should do what the King commands. Long live the King.

Let sycophants cut there own throats and drive those unfavorable numbers up.

Hillary will face a unfriendly house and perhaps senate. Without the full support of her own party.

Mind if I laugh when this election has one of the lowest turnouts in modern history.

By the way I can still have my opinion heard through my representive and my senator. Face it Hillary at best will be embattled on both side. You and Hillary lose no matter what.

Sorry, I'm talking in the long run. I highly doubt he could clinch the nomination without razing Philadelphia to the ground.

Then again, there will likely be riots regardless of the outcome, that's just how Philly is.

With Sanders who knows, but any rational person would drop out. He's an old man and this will be his last chance to run for president, might as well make it memorable.

We'll have to wait to see if this is true or not. I think he does recognize that stopping Trump matters a lot more in the long run than a futile attempt to spend the next 6 weeks flipping superdelegates and it's better for him and his movement to be an important part of the general election campaign and then he can fight to keep pushing Hillary in ways that wouldn't even be a remote possibility with a Trump administration.

Sanders is already looking past the elections, but I hope he makes one hell of a racket on his way out.

He's endorsed 6 candidates in his last e-mail. He splits the contributions between them all.

Quote:
After 10,000 people contributed to Chris Pearson, who's running for the Vermont State Senate, his entire campaign was funded. For the whole election! Chris said in response, "What it means for me is now I don't have to spend time asking a small number of donors for big checks."


When you helped raise huge sums of money for Zephyr Teachout's campaign in New York, she was able to cancel her fundraising calls and head out on the picket line with striking workers throughout her district.
We'll continue to donate to candidates running for senate, congress, and local elections. This way, even if Clinton were to become president, she'll still be haunted by Bernie Bros.

He'll likely stay in another week until DC votes. After he loses there, he'll probably drop out.

Default What is Bernie going to do if Hillary whomps him in California?

I keep hearing he's going to hang in there -- but what if she gets 60-something percent and he gets 30-something percent? That's where the vote is now. (9:16 pm) She's got 62%, he's got 36%.

At what point does he give in?
