I'm sure he's known all along that an indictment wouldn't happen. He's not expecting to swoop in and take over the nomination - he's been concentrating on getting progressive principles included in the platform.

For the losing candidate, Sanders has already achieved some exorodinary concessions from Hillary. However, that still doesn't preclude him from ending his one person campaign and endorsing her, otherwise it comes across more like extortion and blackmail.

His hand picked supporters would still be on the various committees and working on his behalf even when he finally concedes. He can still negotiate with Clinton, and perhaps from even a stronger position of influence as her outspoken ally following his endorsement.

I'm just making the point that the reason he hasn't conceded is not that he's hoping Hillary will be indicted. Maybe he's not going about getting platform concessions in the best way, but his motivation is clearly getting platform concessions, not hoping for the deus ex machina of an indictment that everybody knew wouldn't happen.

Few can hold out on things like a long-term politician.

What a joke.

He's not trying for the nomination, but working on influencing the platform. Whether you agree with the way he's doing it is irrelevant.

Let it go, dude.

Bernie, in the mean time, looks forward to step # 569 that may still give him the nomination.

Also, just because Sanders finished second in no way means he would be given the nomination. Not how it works. That nomination would likely be handed to Elizabeth Warren.

I just saw him on Wolf's show, and Wolf tried to get him to criticize HC for her judgement regarding this inquiry. He said HC was wrong on her vote for AMUF. Wolf asked him if she should get briefings while in the GE. Of course, he said.

It will be Biden.
