These candidates are underwhelming. 
Gotta vote blue but these people got me feeling the blues.

Haven't checked but highly doubt it. That wouldn't matter in the case of a brokered convention though.
one of the funniest things is people acting like they liked her but now hate her
She never claimed Bernie told her women can't be president. And she has unequivocally apologized for her uncritically believing the family lore she was told by her parents. You prefer Bernie, that's fine, but no need to make up shyt. If you believe this sideshow bullshyt delegitimizes all of her points you highlighted in the first paragraph, I question how committed you are to those points in the first place.
they were looking for any reason to say they only will support bernie, which is what we all already knew in the first place. i would respect you more for just being straight up rather than trying to bullshyt. once again it was never about actual policy, only bernie

dudes need to get in line behind bernie or biden. go moderate, or go far left. but bernie owns that lane
i mean seriously. if you're a warren voter, go votr for bernie in the primary. dont waste your vote
If she doesn't win or get close to winning any primaries do you still expect money to come in to fund her campaign?
Even in a brokered convention you need to have some momentum to get the nomination.

A good number of these never-Bernie people aren't going to vote blue if he wins. 25% of Hillary voters in '08 couldn't even bring themselves to vote for Obama, they just straight up voted Republican. It's going to be way more of them this time around.
Honestly I don't think it's gonna get that far. Bernie will win the most delegates, the DNC will handpick someone else at the convention, and that person will proceed to lose the election just like every other DNC pick since 2000.

This is a good point. I think Roger Lau recently said they're shifting their resources and strategy towards still being viable by the time of the convention, but if she's getting slaughtered in all the contests, then I don't think that will be possible. What happens at a brokered convention depends on the state of the race. If Bernie just misses out on securing the nomination outright by a very slim number, then I think it would be both foolish and wrong for him not to end up being the nominee, he'd just have to make some concessions to the other factions of the party to get him over on the second count. But if Pete/Joe and Bernie are dead tied in the delegate count, then I think Liz becoming the nominee is a much more reasonable and palatable outcome.
I know everyone dislikes Pete here, but Pete does have one thing going for him compared to the other candidates. At the end of the day Americans end up preferring young attractive candidates, it helps. Pete might not be attractive under normal standards but compared to everyone else running he is, it's that type of shyt that matters to low information voters. It helped JFK beat Nixon, Clinton in 92, Obama in 08.

Pete's gay. He don't benefit from that.
I disagree, the appearance of youthful vibrance matters to low information voters
