50. "sour grapes?"
How can the supporters of the other candidates be crying sour grapes when their candidates were not even on the ballot? It doesn't apply here. "Sour grapes" means that when you lose, you say you didn't want to win anyway. No one is saying that.

Why the "sour grapes" nonsense anyway? That is adolescent schoolyard sneering and jeering - bullying, in other words. It can only enflame people and does not contribute anything positive or constructive to the discussion.
