re: #16 Ming5000

Sanders reminds me of McCain and Romney during their campaigns. Sanders is acting so cravenly that he clearly is diminishing not only his short term appeal, but also his long term credibility. It is sad in a way. And incomprehensible. What causes them to throw away their honor?

In Bernie’s case somewhere along the line he saw a glimmer of a chance that he might actually be the nominee, the race being much closer at this point than he thought it’d be going in. His wife admitted as much in a recent interview, that they’re doing far better than either of them ever thought possible. So they went from a position where it was impossible to really even be disappointed to one where they were actually able to get their hopes up.
