As a result, Hillary will have no hope of a mandate. People down ticket will run away from her, despite the money she gave them, all 1% of what she supposedly raised on their behalf, and toward Bernie's progressive agenda. Hillary will divide Democrats as much as Trump has divided the Republicans.

This is the way I see it.

Although I might add, IMO it's the Hillary supporters who are dividing the dems. Their insistence that Sanders supporters automatically switch allegiance to Hillary has become very off-putting. I never did like "my way or the highway".

Hillary is so far removed from reality, her arrogance is evident and seems to be only consulting with people who can tell her what she wants to hear.

Bernie needs to win California and he is close, it's no longer a delegate race which has been fixed in advance (all seven super delegates to Hillary for losing, is than an effing joke or what?), but a popularity contest.

Elections are, by definition, popularity contests.

Of course, as long as the voting is not rigged. In a hypothetical race in a general election between Bernie and Hillary, who do you think will win?
