pathetic really.

Not a good look, and even worse than 2016.

His campaign seems particularly ripe for an inflection point into our Party politics. They could be registered as I/D, but their real goal is to help get Trump rewarded....and then reap the expected financial rewards.

supporters there? They just magically missed the mock caucus?

But there is a certain deja vu vibes as to how this campaign is playing out - much like 2016.

And why wouldn't Republicans replay this scenario in 2020?

And the YRCPAC's will be leading the chorus that the DNC killed off Bernie's chances and that's why he lost. UNFAIR!!!

Thus disillusioning another generation of people who should be supporting candidates with strong ties to our Party and Country.

There will be 100's where that will be true. Every candidate will not be viable in 100's of places.

This is not a measure of even strength at that site on the real night. The Sanders people know the process.

This party will NOT be bullied by his supporters again like we were in 2016.

How the Sanders people behave after a loss.

It is statewide numbers that are reported. If they realigned then that would give their vote to a Rival. By holding firm Sanders numbers would not drop between the first and second round. As delegates were already determined no reason to stay.

Since the schools don't do much with Civics anymore, it takes a while to learn how to do this.

volumes:

What the Sanders people did is exactly what would be best for their candidate in his race for the nomination. This is exactly what happens in caucuses. If the rules were different and numbers were not reported they probably would have moved to Buttigieg.

I thought Bernie was a shoe in for the nomination because he was going to blow the doors off everyone else with a people powered campaign led by young people?

And he can’t even win a mock caucus at a college?

Yes indeed it is! Is this a preview of the bullying and intimidation behavior we'll see at the real caucus events?

This says nothing about what will happen after Sanders is not running.
This is exactly the correct thing for them to do in the process of the caucus. If there was more business to be done and they thought they could have an effect on that they would have stayed.

But leaving is part of the rules and what was best for their candidate in THAT context.

as they won. I would expect those with non-competitive primary candidates supporters to realign as they know their candidate isn't going to win.

If they realign they hurt their candidate statewide.

This is exactly what I expect the Sanders campaign to do and why I expect Warren to underperform.

If not viable in first round, work the second round but stand firm. Leave or participate in further business if interested your choice.

Other candidates will have other strategies.
