Bernie Sanders Condemns Closed Primaries but Facing 4 of Them Next Week
Any independent who wanted to vote for Bernie had until 30 days before the primary to register as a Democrat.
Don't want to register as a Democrat?
Then too bad for you.
Too uninterested or ignorant to know the primary is closed and the deadline to register?
Then too bad for you.
You're not a Democrat and I don't want you to have a vote deciding who is the Democratic nominee.
Would Bernie do better in the general, as his surrogates insist?
Well, he hasn't been red-baited yet, and he surely would be.
And Bernie has so far only proved that some young people don't mind his labeling himself a socialist and then refusing to own up to what that actually means lest the ignorant, at last informed, drop him like a hot tamale.
Most Democrats and surely most people to their right know perfectly well, like the Clintons and like Obama, that they disapprove socialism (however they may feel about social democracy) and explicitly support capitalism.
Down ticket Democrats would in many constituencies be running away from Bernie.
The wife and I just voted for Hillary.
