Maybe they realized that Sanders would get a larger percentage of delegates if they all stayed in and split the vote.
Thats right. There are two types of Democrats: Bernie, and everyone else.
Bernie apparently didnt get the memo that as a Democrat you are supposed to keep your Marxist beliefs and your hatred of the USA a secret. Hes going around telling the truth and ruining everything!
The other candidates know they are supposed to lie.
Ironically, if they nominate one of the liars, they will lose because they are liars. If they nominate Bernie, he will lose because he tells the truth about being a Marxist.
