I'll bet Bernie is feeling a bit smug right now.

Bernie should be feeling ashamed of himself, not smug.
He had a chance to stand against the Clinton crime syndicate and he chose to sell out and tell his supporters to do the same.
What a disgusting piece of shit!

Exactly! Bernie Sanders is a spineless sellout. I can't understand how people can look up to that worm.

Yup. He blew it. They blew it. He couldn't rally the party at this point.

What's more, he knew he didn't have a chance of being elected so he just pandered to the extreme left to a point where they'd rather not vote than vote for Hilary.
He's done a remarkable amount of damage to the Democrats AND will come out of all this smelling like roses.

He really didn't have a choice... and I'll bet he knew more of what was going on at the time, and so felt that there was no point.

Oh great, now you've gone and stirred the Bernie cry babies up.

But he didn't, the retarded college kids would have picked Clinton over Trump but when you have a candidate promising that everyone gets a shiny new car and twenty million dollars in their personal bank accounts (tax free), don't be surprised when people see the other Democrat candidate as a significant downgrade.
If the job was to get retarded college kids to vote for Clinton they should have rivalled her with someone truly unlikeable.

Smugger than a college liberal
