If you don't think he can/should win, then fine, but that's no license to be a condescending dick about it. You are not smarter or more mature just because you've resigned yourself to voting for a party puppet.
It has to do with the fact that with the bulk of the primary behind us, Bernie has won well under 50% of the pledged delegates. To think he has any hope of suddenly winning 67% of what little is left is sheer folly. While it is mathematically possible, it is utterly unrealistic. It's not about me being smarter or more mature; it's about you ignoring reality.b
Her lead in pledged delegates is under 300, and there are over 900 left to claim before the primaries are over. Both candidates have to win most of the upcoming battles in order to cement a lead. Furthermore, if she becomes more un-electable between now and July, the supers could very well turn on her.
I'm not ignoring anything. I realize that Hillary is likely to become the nominee. What IS ignoring reality is to act as if that's a foregone conclusion when it's technically still anybody's game and there are multiple ways in which Bernie could still win.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
