We’ll have far more on this later tonight or tomorrow AM. You can listen live to Brook Hines and Kartik Krishnaiyer right now LIVE on Rabble discussing the primary results.

Clinton (like her husband before her) doesn’t inspire enthusiasm among the voters Dems need (Clinton never got 50% in a GE and also ran in two of the lowest turnout elections of our lifetimes). Sanders does among many of them but apparently he’s not being nominated so we need to find a way to make things work with this particularly flawed nominee.
