Democratic Primaries
In reply to the discussion: It's over Bernie! Voters rejected you. [View all]The Magistrate
(96,043 posts)Will not cancel primaries. These are necessary still for selecting Congressional candidates, and candidates for state and local offices.
'Bernie' needs to accept his defeat, to realize, as it were, that Democrats 'just aren't that into him'. He is like the character in some comic movie who is told by a girl he desires there's not a chance in million she will date him, and replies 'so you're saying there's a chance, right?'
"From Bernies perspective, dropping out of a race once you have no chance of winning is peculiar behavior that can only be explained by the work of a hidden hand. For most politicians, though, it is actually standard operating procedure. Only Sanders seems to think the normal thing to do once voters have made clear they dont want to nominate you is to continue campaigning anyway."
"When things are not called by their right names, what is said cannot make sense. When what is said does not make sense, what is planned cannot succeed. When plans do not succeed, people become uneasy. When people are uneasy, punishments do not fit crimes. When punishments do not fit crimes, people cannot know where to put hand or foot."

primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
