Bernie Sanders for VP!

[KevinM1]

There's also something distasteful about the Dems all but throwing away the idea of an actual campaign for the candidacy.  Sanders is only running as a Democrat for pragmatic reasons.  It's pretty clear that the original plan was to give her token resistance that would be strung along in order to have the pretence of an actual race.  That's why, at first people like Hilary and Debbie Wasserman Shultz (head of the DNC and Hilary's friend for those playing at home) didn't really care that this Independent from Vermont decided to join the race as a Democrat.  They figured it would give the laughable pool of 'challengers' a little more depth, which would make it seem more legit.

But, they didn't count on Sanders not gleefully playing a useful idiot like the others (what few there were).  They didn't count on him taking a page out of the Obama playbook and running a great ground game.  He caught them unprepared because they thought he would play ball and simply join the others in making a farce out of the primary/caucus system in order to hand her the nomination on a silver platter.  And that's why Debbie hates him, that's why they rigged the Iowa caucus (lol at those magic coin flips), that's why Clinton supporters are now freaking out about him staying in the race despite the actual delegate numbers being fairly close and knowing that super delegates can and have changed their minds.

Sanders didn't go along with the program and Hilary supporters are becoming increasingly angry at him because of it.  How dare he stay in a close race?  How dare he force Hilary to earn it?

If Hilary is the candidate, I'll vote for her because at least she's not Trump.  But the sense of entitlement emanating from her and her ardent supporters is distasteful to me.
