Look, lots of people don't want Sanders. Up until now, there were a LOT of options that were "Not Sanders." They had different approaches to things. After 4 primaries, it became more or less clear which "Not Sanders" candidates were viable. And being fucking grown-ups, several of those decided that backing a candidate they like (or at least can live with) is more important than feeding their own vanity.

And given that Sanders has shit all over Democrats every chance he has gotten, it should come as no surprise that Democrats might prefer an actual Democrat as our nominee.

The belly aching from the Berners is just ridiculous. Boo Hoo! People are supporting someone else! Berner has never had, and never will have (IMO) majority support in the Democratic party.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
