Rick Klein: “The one that has a second candidate vowing to fight to the end, to change the minds of delegates? The one that includes a campaign that sued the national party – not a threat, an actual lawsuit – claiming favoritism for a rival? The one that witnessed violent disruptions at a state party gathering, so bad that the state party is warning the national party about national convention violence? It is now overwhelmingly clear that the Democratic side of the race will not wind itself down into peace and togetherness. It is now conceivable, and perhaps probable, that the scene in Philadelphia is more raucous – and less glamorous – than the scene in Cleveland this summer.”
“Bernie Sanders shouldn’t be blamed for all that his supporters do and say, though neither is he blameless. His talk of a political revolution continues, and the strong suggestion he leaves voters with is less about Hillary Clinton’s qualifications than about the legitimacy of the Democratic Party’s nominating process.”
