Good read generally from Daily Kos, especially if one follows the embedded links to the source stories:

I think Hillary/Bernie supporters need to focus on this. With Ted Cruz and Donald Trump leading the GOP field, and November 2016 coming ever closer, D vs. R is where the substantive differences are.
Will that make anyone act differently between now and November? Not likely. But Im saying it anyway because its true.

(32,886 posts)1. While I understand your point there are other issues to consider
Namely that a Sanders nomination makes the election of the GOP nominee practically automatic. So in many ways, fighting against Sanders is a proxy against Trump/Cruz

"the answer is so obvious, even a chimpanzee could see it"
i hope more people see the truth.

will win the Dem nomination. So I am optimistic all round.
