The Democratic establishment disarmed Bernie Sanders' political revolution in a swift and ruthless counter coup Thursday, lining up behind its own heir apparent, Hillary Clinton.
"I'm with her," Obama declared in a web video in which the party's ultimate super delegate endorsed Clinton and effectively imposed a truce in an often divisive primary campaign. Hours later, Vice President Joe Biden said "God willing," Clinton would be the next president. Sen. Elizabeth Warren added her voice as well.
It was the kind of mind meld between a party's establishment and its presumptive nominee that has eluded Republicans, with many GOP power players still squirming over Donald Trump's latest controversy -- his comments that a U.S. judge with Mexican ancestry is biased against him.
CNN political commentator David Gergen, an adviser to a string of Republican and Democratic presidents, said he was struck by the contrast between the two parties.
"The Democrats (are) now swiftly and smoothly closing ranks, versus the Republicans in tension and near disarray coming out of the last three weeks," Gergen told CNN's Wolf Blitzer.

Let’s start from the understanding that this article is total trash. Dems are not even slightly united behind Clinton; Trump pulled a far larger share of the GOP vote against a far larger field.
Klinton News Network (KNN) is Rather biased ...
The Dems want to win. The Repubs love being complicit and occasionally pointing a finger in the Dems' direction when the People seem to be catching on that they love themselves more than they love the Nation or the People....
I think the RNC plans on “Cuccinelli-ing” Trump.
The GOP PROMISED to support the winner.
But the GOP are genetic LIARS starting with ObamaCARE
(they remain EXEMPT) and ObamaTRADE (lie is what they do).
Yeah like the 52% of Blacks the felon is getting. That’s FORTY POINTS short of what a Democrat gets just for announcing.
Pure BS ditto. Record breaking number of votes in a primary. Trump is redefining “party”. The GOPe is now the Bush wing of the Democrat party...the millions of Independents and previous non-voters are joining Trumo, not as Republicans, but as a new group that is voting popular. It’s not Republucans and Democrats anymore and trying to explain this with those outdated parameters will give you an erroneous conclusion...hence the erroneous CNN statement.
This is simply not true and is CNN spinning. Maybe the GOP elites and a few writers for the Weekly Standard are divided, but the populous is behind Trump, just like for the Dems how they are behind Bernie.
My Union Democrat neighbors just switched their party affiliation to Republican so they can vote for Trump. That is not unique in this election. The MSM, GOPees, and pundits are dedicated to defeating Trump and defying We The People. We MUST be America’s “Second” Greatest Generation; the Generation that saves our country, saves our freedom, and saves our future from the enemies within!
Folks, Trump will go it alone, if he has too!!! The difference between Trump and the GOP Establishment low life, vermin...is that Trump simply is in love with the USA, and its magnificent people....all of them!!!
Note: Good Folks living in the Richmond, Virginia area...please turnout in massive numbers to support Donald J. Trump on his “first” real general election political rally this evening being held in Richmond, VA!!! DO IT!!!
Go DONALD J. TRUMP.....On to Victory!!!
Bernie is shut out. So are his supporters. They will be punished.
>Why is it that the Democrats can figure out the obvious, but the Republicans can’t, that to win, you need to unite and fight the opposite party, not each other.
Well, it’s easy when EVERYONE is on the same page: ‘tear down the last of the Republic and put themselves in power’ vs. a rag-tag (SOMETIMES diametrically opposed) ‘Rule of Law’.
Even worse when many in the latter are truly in the former camp.
Lastly, when the ‘opposition’s’ clarion-call is “Me too! Only better/not so much”...
DEMs have a record of ‘success’ in their Socialism. REPs, once given the reigns, have a records of ‘success’...in helping the DEMs
The Democrat elites are united, but their grassroots are seriously divided.
“Because a large number of Republicans ARE Democrats. “
I like to call them “Corporate Liberals”
Don’t forget about the huge crowds if invisible democrat voters that will be lining to vote for Hillary. Voter fraud will be Trump’s biggest enemy. If, when, it happens this time hopefully the people will be in the streets in such large numbers the politicians will be hiding in their holes.
Which is how it always is.
