Negotiations are underway to have Bernie Sanders officially nominate Hillary Clinton for president at the Democratic National Convention on Tuesday night, a move that would further signal party unity.

According to a source familiar with the talks, the Vermont senator would nominate the presumptive Democratic nominee after the roll call vote that will be held on the convention floor.

NBC News first reported the negotiations.

Accessorized, no doubt, by a studded collar and a strategically placed feather duster.

We get Traitor Ted instead.

[PROCON]

It would be priceless to hear, while he's endorsing her, his supporters chanting in the audience:

"LOCK HER UP, LOCK HER UP!"

[Billthedrill]

That ought to spin them up. The Bernie folks I’ve talked to over the last couple of days aren’t taking it well...

[joshua c]

To be accurate, he should bend over and spread his cheeks when he nominates her.

Wouldn’t it be funny if Bernie or his supporters started a chant to “Vote your Conscience”.

[VanDeKoik]

His FORMER supporters are not going to be playacted by that.

Bernie is seen as a sell-out. Completely compromised. Going through the motions for the people that have been screwing them all along.

Actually I was hoping he would wear a “Pin the Jackass” T-Shirt.

[BookmanTheJanitor]

Good grief...Bernie really is a wuss.

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

I HOPE THEY DO THIS !! PLEASE DO THIS !!

The ad play from just that clip alone, would last all the way into November.

[hal ogen]

Feel the bern as yet? The bernie lovers will really like this move. LOL.

[eaglestar]

They have him wearing knee pads and begging for mercy.

[Enchante]

Shrillary has a lovely gift picked out for Bernie, his own special dog collar. She will not even need a whip....

[Blue Jays]

Senator Sanders is likely somewhat afraid to otherwise go for a pleasant walk in Fort Marcy Park anytime soon. Capisci?

[Logical me]

Sanders is a real piece of crap. And his State that keeps reelecting this insane fool are purely ignorant.

[17th Miss Regt]

This is the public humiliation part for opposing comrade Clinton. The execution comes later.

[kabar]

LOL. Rubbing salt in the wounds of the Bernie supporters. Hillary has Bernies’ nuts in her large lock box.

[angcat]

I wonder how much Bernie will make.

[Fresh Wind]

Could it be that the Bernie people will be banned from the convention?

I read yesterday that the Bernie signs have been confiscated. But it isn’t the signs that have been booing.

We can’t have the riff-raff spoiling Hillary’s special moments.
