Sanders Campaign staying in til DC

He'll stay in until DC, as in the District of Columbia. I'm pretty sure Clinton claimed in '08 that she would take it to the convention, but of course, conceded a few days after the last primaries. Some folks are going to spew vitriol, because it makes them feel righteous and justified. Hopefully, a few weeks after the primaries are over, we'll all be focused on the general election. If jfern is still talking about how Sanders is more electable, or we still get posts deriding Sanders after he's dropped out, we'll all know who the pathetic ones are.

I agree that if Sanders does stay in through the convention, he's overstayed his welcome to say the least. He should concede after California or D.C. However, I am tired of the man and all of his supporters being grouped with his most obnoxious ones. Some Sanders supporters are going to level unfair criticism of Clinton, and that's not right. However, this doesn't justify unleashing unfair criticism of Sanders, or holding him personally accountable for everything each one of his supporters say.

Quite a few people are sore losers, and don't react well at all to their candidate losing. There were Clinton supporters in '08 who were like that and then some. Was Hillary personally to blame for their actions? Should we have blamed PUMA on her? Some people would, no doubt. But I hardly think that's fair, and the same applies to blaming Bernie for what some loonies who happen to support him might say.
