Honestly, I think it'll be pretty predictable. Generic "super delegates/establishment handed her the race" or "super delegates aren't locked in, this isn't over" stuff.

If I were a Bernie supporter this wouldn't make me want to support Hillary in the general.

The only winner here is Trump Wink

Time for Bernie to be Eugene Debs, not Eugene McCarthy.
I like Bernie, but I don't want a President Trump. So Bernie should take the fall and accept Hillary Humphrey as his lord and savior.

CNN did a segment earlier interviewing Bernie supporters at their San Francisco concert tonight, and I almost puked in my mouth.

I think Bernie should lose the nomination because he's going to lose in pledged delegates, but I think that this type of reporting, or at least the outlets who fail to report that superdelegates can change their vote, is sketchy/lame. 

It's totally cool to say that it appears Clinton is the presumptive nominee or that she is almost certainly the nominee, but the fact that she won with changeable supers needs to be mentioned and often isn't on many outlets.

Somebody called Arizona a traditionally Democratic state, and showed a poll of Hillary losing there as proof that she was a bad candidate.

And somebody convinced Bernie was going to win California by 40 points and Hillary called her friends in the media to rig it for her.

So the November election shouldn't be called until December because electors in some states could change their votes en masse and elect the loser?

Somebody's talking about "berning" the convention. At this point, I don't know if it's figurative or literal.

Start out as figurative and if they don't get their way literal?

Okay, first, I'm going to try reasoning with them. If that doesn't work, let's all bern the subreddit down. It'll be fun.
