He'll be as successful as Martha Rainwater and Ruth Dwyer.

Looks like Atlas has its candidate.

The Hillary support around here is disturbing and nauseating

Hopefully he shares the same fate as the other left-wing Judas of Italian descent.

I mean, if Sanders really does stay in through the convention I can understand this, but if not, do we really want to boot him out of the senate simply out of spite? That's childish.

I'm convinced that there are plenty of "progressives" here who would be more willing to blow money on an unwinnable race out of spite than donate to Democrats challenging incumbent Republicans.

Yeah, they're almost as delusional as the people who thought Bernie could win the nomination. Wink

He's untouchable in Vermont obviously. If he goes insane and scorched earth, the consequences would be within the Senate, not in Vermont.

They kept Joe Lieberman around.  I'm pretty sure that means you can get away with anything. Tongue

But Lieberman was impotent and made no difference anyway (plus was the key 60th vote.) Had McCain won and he wasn't the decisive vote for control, there's no way they would've let him get away with it. Obama's easy victory helped diffuse the situation. In a scenario where Bernie goes scorched earth, Trump wins, and he is not the decisive vote for Senate control, I can't see them not punishing him.

Luckily, that is a fairly unlikely and convoluted scenario on all counts.
