Joe was conciliatory last night. Bernie was confrontational today.

Those who do not identify with the party simply need to get with the program (or leave).

The hardcore BS supporters are only about 15% of registered Democrats. If they cry and take their toys and go home do be it, we will pick up moderate independents and moderate republicans who hate Trump and can vote for Joe but not Bernie.

Which are not over yet, in case you haven't noticed. I have not yet gotten the chance to vote and neither have many people. And all these calls to "shut this puppy down" just feed right into the narrative about it being rigged. Let people vote and then we can come together.

If the party wants to avoid the primaries going on for too long in the future they should shorten the window for states to conduct their primaries. But short-circuiting it midway through before half the voters get to weigh in is insulting and counter productive.

you support because they "dropped out" when they saw there was no chance of winning and it was only hurting the DEMOCRATS chance of winning in November? Because that is what happened to me.
