Agree.
If Sanders gets too much traction and the DNC thinks they could lose a few “super delegate’s, the HRC-DNC will Seth Rich/McDougal/Ron Brown/Admiral Boorda/Vince Foster the Vermont sapling, and then attend his funeral with a thousand boxes of Kleenex for the cameras, and turn it into an Establishment socialist pep rally.
There’s no reason to be that “dramatic” !
I think they’ll just “discover” that Bernie is not a member of the Rat party and disqualify him. Find some suitable “half-baked “ leftist substitute like Pocahontas or just let Bloomberg have it. Maybe cut a deal with Bloomberg, he gets if writes a huge check for the “down ticket” candidates and pays his own way. Maybe even throw up their hands completely and let Hellary have another go. Actually a Bloomberg-Hellary (or Hellary-Bloomberg) ticket makes a lot of sense for them.
