Fresh off a big win in the West Virginia primary, Sen. Bernard Sanders campaign said Wednesday the Democratic Party would be courting disaster if it nominates Hillary Clinton as its presidential nominee.
In a fundraising email to supporters, Sanders campaign manager Jeff Weaver cited recent polls showing the Vermont senator performing better against Republican Donald Trump in general election match-ups. Recent surveys have shown Mrs. Clinton virtually tied with Mr. Trump in the key battleground states of Ohio, Pennsylvania and Florida.
Citing those troubling figures, Mr. Weaver said the Democratic Party and its superdelegates who are free to support either candidate must reject Mrs. Clinton and embrace Mr. Sanders, or face a crushing defeat in November.

Bernie taking advantage of the fact that it’s beginning to dawn on Democrats that Hillary is a dog of a candidate who is likely to lose.
Funny how the media is overlooking the 2nd biggest story of this election cycle.
1) Trump is hugely popular
2) Hillary is getting skunked by a weird old socialist man.
“Sanders: Nominating Clinton would be disaster for party, nation”
The ol’ guy, and his free stuff. Now free advice. Gotta say he’s right on this one.
Correction: she is getting schlonged, not skunked LOL
Why, because she isn’t sufficiently Marxist?
Geezus, the US has descended into a vile pit of true weirdness.
Notice the media doesn’t bring up the squabbles going on in the DNC, only bringing up the drama within the GOP..meanwhile 30 percent of WV Democrats said yesterday they would vote for Trump instead of Clinton, now I know, its WV and with Clintons comments on coal I doubt their vote would make a difference but in states like PA it would
As much as I’d rather not run against Sanders, it’d be hilarious if the Party pulled the rug out from under Hillary and effectively robbed her of the last chance she’ll ever have to be president.
Headline: Blind squirrel finds nut
He should have launched his attack earlier instead of pulling his punches.
It's not just WV, 20% of Sanders' voters in New York said they would support Trump.
I think the dude thinks he can win it now!
Question is, which Democrat is on ballots in all 57 states? If Hillarity drops out, is there another candidate besides Sanders on every ballot?
HE wants to be VP.
He will go after those Super Delegates with internet commandoes harassing them 24/7.
If the demodummies expect to win back the WH, they had better come up with someone a whole lot better than Hitlary or Sanders.
I live in California. I am toying with the idea of changing my voter registration to Democrat so that I can vote for Bernie in the California primary. I think I still have time.
Trump is pounding on Crooked Hillary.
He’s actually kinder to Crazy Bernie. Bernie, if he had a sense of humor, could carom off of that one and advertise like those car dealers that dress their spokesmen like Napoleon. He’d win over a lot of Democrats who could still laugh.
