The bottom line is that she'll receive the official nomination. What happens from there is really anyone's guess. It won't break my heart either way but I hope that people like PCALMike can come to terms with the overall will of the American people. They don't want Sanders. It's nothing personal.
Interesting that you now say it isn't personal. You've spent the better part of 4 pages arguing that he and other Sanders supporters are young, naive, ignorant, immature, and unconcerned about politics because they are too busy chugging beer at spring break.

Happy now Bernie supporters?
Well the protests were funded by MoveOn -an organization funded by George Soros- who ironically enough is massively funding Hillary Clinton's campaign. Very interesting things going on this election...

Well ... they are young, naive, and immature. You threw in the ignorant part. And between them not showing up at the polls, and Hillary receiving more votes from Americans who support her and not Sanders, he simply didn't get the votes he needed.

It's really *not* personal. It's just the truth.

Fair enough. I hope you don't take it personally when I say that Clinton supporters are evil wretches with no concern about core values, truth, honesty, integrity, or doing what's right. Additionally, they have no problem with supporting a woman who brazenly lies to mourning mothers over the coffins of their dead sons. The main reason Clinton supporters seem to overlook these glaring flaws is that they are selfish and only concerned about making sure that politicians who share the letter after their name (D) remain in power to continue to give them benefits and do other things that Clinton supporters want.

But, it isn't personal. It's just the truth.

That would be hyperbole.

I'm not a Clinton supporter. I placed my first-ever R vote for Kasich in my primary, sooooooo ...

Hope you feel better having got that all off your chest, though. Rather dramatic prose.

Not a legitimate comparison since there are more than 2 candidates in the GOP primaries.

Like I said... the Sanders supporters were duped into participating in the Chicago protest. Useful idiots. We all know where we've heard that condescension before.

That's true. The report didn't break out votes of the candidates who've dropped out. Good point.
