re: #326 Targetpractice

I gave up on trying to convince Berners of anything right around the time it became mathematically impossible for him to win the nomination via primary votes and they were babbling about how the reason for that was because the DNC had influenced primary voters via superdelegates pulling for Hillary early and thus they were a threat to the whole process. You know, at the same time they were entertaining conspiracies about how those same superdelegates were gonna break big for Bernie at the convention or else there would be a party-wide schism that would see half the party march over to the Green Party to create a “true” third party.

I think he like many Berners I have talked to just refuses to see that not everyone in the Democratic Party including the rank and file was enthralled with Bernie. I liked Bernie at first but the more I got to know him in the debates and ad wars, the less I liked him. The less impressed I was.
