Can't wait to see Bernie campaigning for HRC.

[arely staircase]

We clearly have the awesome party.

[LexVegas]

1. He is going to work his ass off for her. nt

[NurseJackie]

2. I know! It's gonna be great! And I'll admire him for it!

[HERVEPA]

4. After months of pissing on Bernie supporters

[boston bean]

7. It would do a lot for me if he campaigns for her and gives up this unrealistic show he is running.

[arely staircase]

14. He will start campaigning for her at the convention.

Just watch. I bet he gives a barn burning (berning) speech for her at the convention.

[larkrake]

24. he will not campaign for hill, he will be working for progressive candites

[democrattotheend]

71. That's my prediction

I expect he will eventually concede and be gracious, but I don't expect him to hit the campaign trail for her more than once or twice. It just wouldn't make sense - he fundamentally and genuinely disagrees with her about a lot of things. Plus, I don't know that she really wants him to play as active a role as she played in 2008.

I would rather see him do what he has to do to try to talk sense into the BoB people but spend most of his time helping downballot progressives.

[Demsrule86]

33. It cuts both ways.

Look it was a hard fought campaign. At least your guy did not meltdown like Howard Dean...yes I was a Deaniac...and it hurt. Now it is over let's move on and beat the most dangerous candidate in my lifetime...Donald Trump...never Trump!

[larkrake]

10. no. he will support her and return to the movement,turning his back

[mac56]

3. That will depend on many things happening first.

I'm not sure I'd print up the placards yet.

[MineralMan]

5. I'm sure he will, but I'm not sure how enthusiastically.

He may well just return to the Senate and not say much.

His news cycle is about done.

[arely staircase]

16. I bet he gives a great pro party unity pro Clinton anti Trump speech at the convention.

Just the opposite of what the GOP wants.

[larkrake]

25. he will go anti trump for sure. thats about it

[Beowulf]

31. That's my take as well.

He will go after Trump aggressively, but will do little direct campaigning FOR Hillary. Honestly, that's probably the best for Clinton. Bernie's supporters would see him campaigning against Trump as being consistent while his supporters would view his direct support with suspicion. That might not be satisfying to Clinton supporters, but it would likely in the end yield more votes for Clinton.

[arely staircase]

40. I bet he will be an energetic campaigner for Clinton in the fall. nt

[puffy socks]

28. I'm not holding my breath

He seems too unhinged to do that and his supporters will freak out and probably start calling with death threats etc.

[Kentonio]

43. "His news cycle is about done"? So much for your endless claims about admiring both candidates.

I guess he just ran for President to get his name in the papers, right?

[MaeScott]

6. Don't hold your breath waiting. Story is not complete. He has options.

[arely staircase]

11. Just you watch. nt

[larkrake]

8. not going to happen. she will win without my vote. I dont do neocon

[arely staircase]

9. Yes it will. Bernie will be out there kicking Trump's ass for HRC and for America

regardless of what you do.

[larkrake]

12. he will kick trumps ass for us

[arely staircase]

23. It will start at the convention with his rousing unity speech.

many disruptions will be disappointed. But the base will be fire up.

[wyldwolf]

13. You're Bernie? GASP!

[Duval]

47. Agree.

[mac56]

15. Curious to see your posts in a place you called "the sewer" not too long ago.

What should we conclude from that?

"So will this sewer (GDP) be gone after Tuesday.


After Bernie is done?

[arely staircase]

17. Oh I can't wait for GDP to be gone. It is troll heaven. Also can't wait for the 16th when the disrup

tors get the boot.

[mac56]

18. Gonna miss you when you're ousted.

[arely staircase]

20. Oh I support the (presumptive) nominee. It is those who don't who will be gone. nt

[mac56]

21. ---

[puffy socks]

30. Pffft

Turn off the TV
"Star Trek the next generation" isnt real

[DLevine]

19. Shit-stirring only helps Trump.

It hurts the Democratic party.

[arely staircase]

22. How is that shit stirring? Bernie is going to be one of the best surrogates Clinton will have.

I say that with complete sincerity. I think this will begin at the convention with a he'll of a speech on his part. I think Bernie's roll at the convention will be just the opposite of what the actual shit stirrers here are hoping for.

[Phlem]

29. Der......I dunno? How is dat shit stirring...der duh....

Yea right.

[arely staircase]

38. If you think looking forward to a unified party kicking GOP ass is shit stirring

that speaks volumes.

[Phlem]

67. Cause that's exactly what your doing.

"Unifying" the party.

It couldn't possibly be having the opposite effect could it? You're completely innocent.

I see down thread that, that's exactly what's happening.

[tonyt53]

26. Bernie should thank Hillary. Now the questions about his tax returns will stop.

[peace13]

37. It will be a blessing never to read this statement again.

The next phase of the election process will open your eyes to all that Clinton has refused to address. My best to you.

[peace13]

27. Yes...he and President Obama will just be a pair.

[Hiraeth]

32. lol

[Phlem]

34. Do I or Do I not support the Democratic Party anymore.

This fucked up post has made my mind up.

[geek tragedy]

35. too early for this kind of post, nt

[arely staircase]

39. Really? Why? nt

[geek tragedy]

42. give the Sanders supporters some space--talking about how he'll campaign on her behalf

seems a little gloatish, imo

[Rex]

45. Nah gloating is a time honored tradition for some here.

Let them get it out of their system.

[coyote]

36. He won't.

[arely staircase]

41. Of course he will. And I bet it upsets you when he does. nt

[ChisolmTrailDem]

53. I'm glad our misfortune can provide you with so much glee and joy. Congratulations. You have...

...defeated your fellow Democrats and now you have every right to rub our faces in it and pour salt in our wounds.

You are clearly very happy to do so. I hope it provides you with the joy you seek in your life.

[coyote]

54. And I bet it will upset you

When he doesn't. Just watch.

[mcar]

46. Yes!

[ChisolmTrailDem]

48. After all the hateful shit you spewed out of your ass about Bernie? Good luck with that! nt

[arely staircase]

49. Yeah I am sure he will take my DU posts in to consideration

Probably the deciding factor.

[ChisolmTrailDem]

50. You can make smart ass comments all you want but I'll never believe that you...

..."can't wait" to see Bernie stumping for Hillary.

You are just trying to stir shit and pour salt in the wounds of your fellow Democrats, which says all I need to know about how you feel about Democrats who dare to be to the left of Hillary Clinton and who are supporters of an UNDERGROUND candidate who is fighting for the people and not the oligarchal, status quo, same-as-it-ever-was corporate-sponsored establishment.

[arely staircase]

51. I am looking forward to it very much and don't give two shits whether you believe me.

Clear?

[ChisolmTrailDem]

52. Oh yes, there is something very "clear" to me - about you. You are taking great pleasure...

...in the pain of fellow Democrats/Liberals/Progressives. You are reveling in it.

I hope you're happy with yourself but the psychology suggests that you really aren't.

[arely staircase]

57. Drama much? nt

[ChisolmTrailDem]

59. You revel in the pain of fellow Democrats. That gives you much pleasure. Don't try...

...to project "drama" onto me. You are pleased and gleeful of the pain of your fellow Democrats. You like that we're hurting and you want to add to that by starting your OP, so that you can rub it in the faces of your fellow Democrats.

Your attempt to deflect away from your behavior is also indicated by the psychology at work here.

[arely staircase]

60. Hurting? Pain?

Because a politician you like lost?

[ChisolmTrailDem]

61. You feed off the pain of others' loss. And, as such, I am done...

...with you. I have no desire to associate with someone who is gleeful at the misfortune of fellow Democrats. The complete lack of sympathy for you fellow Democrats and the fact that you feed off our despair should tell anyone reading this about the content of your character.

Yes, because I supported Bernie, you are happy and gleeful that we lost and, yes, when I think about the consequences to my family and my grandchildren, it does hurt. It is painful. Just as you are joyful and gleeful because a politician you like appears to have "won". Why is it wrong for us to feel pain but for you to feel joy and glee is different and good?

You are gleeful of your fellow Democrats' loss, pain, and hurt. That says a lot about you.

That's all I have to say because I will no longer allow you to feed off my pain and disappointment and despair - because a candidate you like won makes you gleeful and me and the one I like don't matter to you at all and are only fodder for your gleeful and joyful schadenfreude.

[arely staircase]

63. Despair? Pain? You preferred politician lost a race.

Your dog didn't get run over.

Perspective.

[BKH70041]

55. Hopefully he'll give a quick endorsement.

And then ride off into the night. She doesn't need or want him on the trail for her.

[wendylaroux]

56. nasty

[adigal]

62. I agree... I don't want Bernie polluting himself with the corporate tag

I hope he gives a good speech at the convention, and then goes back to doing what he does best - fighting for the little guy. I don't want him soiling himself with the big corporate nominee.

I have to vote for her - he doesn't have to stump for her.

[BKH70041]

64. No you don't

If I felt the way the Sanders supporters have expressed about Clinton, I'd have a backbone and not vote for her. But, like I said, I have a backbone.

[democrattotheend]

72. Same here

Well said

[azurnoir]

73. No you're right Hillary doesn't want or need Bernie or his supporters

[SheilaT]

58. I would not count on this if I were you.

First off, if Bernie does well enough today he could actually have as many or slightly more pledged delegates than she does. Which means the supers will be in a real quandary for the Convention.

Plus, the FBI investigation is still hanging over her.

[Orsino]

65. The GOP have set a low bar.

Seems like our first-string could relax a while, doesn't it? Some of the other kids should get a chance to play.

[TomJulie]

66. Bernie Was A Tough Competitor And...

He will be remembered as a candidate who shocked the political world.

As far as stumping for Hillary, I hope he does but this was a hard fought campaign, both side attacked each other hard and he's sure to be disappointed by losing but Hillary beat him fair and square. Give Bernie time, I bet he'll be right there with us very soon if he's not already.

The big fight for President has now begun.

[arely staircase]

69. I think Clinton/Obama was a much nastier race.

They went from nasty to Kumbaya very quickly for the sake of the party and the country.

[Maru Kitteh]

68. It will be a little while yet perhaps; but YES I think Sen. Sanders will relish the chance

to fight against the human dumpster selected by the knuckle dragging cretins that are the Republican party.

[democrattotheend]

70. I don't expect him to

I expect him to eventually endorse her, but I don't see him actively hitting the trail for her like she did for Obama in 2008. He has much more fundamental policy differences with Hillary than Hillary and Obama had in 2008, he probably doesn't plan to run again given his age, and as far as I know he doesn't need her help paying off mountains of campaign debt (could be wrong on that last one).

I will be disappointed if he doesn't eventually step aside and plays the role of spoiler, but I don't expect him to spend a lot of time on the trail for her. I doubt she even wants him to.

[senz]

74. If he ever had any doubts about what she is, he should have lost them today.
