How much will Bernie make to take a dive this time?
Whatever he got in 2016, he should triple it.

Only thing is if it’s a brokered convention and Bernie is knocked out, I can totally see Bernie supporters do a 1968 Dem riot repeat. It will be a disaster for Dems and no amount of unity ticket will save them because there will be no unity. Better to take the L with Bernie and try in 2024 than to burn it down and still lose

Brokered Convention ‘Not the End of the World’


It might be for them if Bernie’s Antifa wing decides he/they got shorted again.

I’ll settle for the end of the Democrats as a viable threat to the country. But I’m not gonna hold my breath.

I would hope they are not so stupid as to allow the PIAPS a third chance but they’ve proved themselves as ignorant as they’d like the rest of us to be.

Someone apparently has offered Harry money to begin paving the way to a brokered convention.

It’s not the end of the world but it’s the end of the Rats winning the White House at least. God willing.

If you are a member of the Wisconsin national guard, do not book any vacations for August. You will be in uniform and quite busy in August.

If it is a brokered convention and Bernie is denied, there won’t be any on stage unity photo with the nominee and Milwaukee will burn.

No, but Hillary's 3rd loss and Trump's win will be God giving us one more chance.

Yep, look at the 72 playbook, they knew Nixon at the point was unbeatable, so they threw out McGovern, who was expendable.

Perhaps even then the Rats knew they could “get” Nixon in his second term, and rebuild in the meantime. Then in 76, you had a completely new person on the scene in Jimmy Carter who won.

A brokered convention is the last thing the RATS want. They have to find a way to stop Sanders by Super Tuesday. If he scores big on that day and wins a bunch of states and delegates I don’t think they’ll be able to keep him from gaining the most delegates on the way to Milwaukee!
