Bad news for anti-Democrats.

I love that more youth are getting involved in politics.

I only hope they stay after their first round of disappointment. When the dream campaign promises are broken when they hit a reality wall. That's the hardest hurdle to jump over for the politically active.

We all like to pretend otherwise, but the truth is, all politics is compromise. And when compromise breaks down, bad things happen.

We are in this grid lock in Congress now because of a failure to compromise.

I will forever respect Obama for trying for as long as he did to compromise and converse with Republicans. The man has the patience of a saint.

So if the Party carries on with Sanders vision, it will continue to grow with these newly registered Democrats. If the Party continues on with Clinton's republican vision, all those newly registered Democrats return to being Independsnts, along with many fed-up liberals.

In fact, Sanders got slaughtered in most of the closed primaries. There weren't enough young voters registering as Ds to make a difference in the closed primaries. Sanders has said he doesn't like closed primaries because they are "rigged" to keep Indies from voting for him. Would he say that if enough Indies had registered as Ds to vote in closed primaries?

Indies who voted as Indies in open primaries didn't need to change party affiliation.

So, the only re-registration that would matter would be Indies who voted in a state where you were allowed to change party affiliation to D at the polling place the day of the primary. That would be an option in very few of the states.

Hillary is getting millions more votes than Sanders, which says very strongly that Democrats want Hillary's vision and policies, not Sanders' stillborn revolution.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but that is only b/c Sanders is in the race.

This is evidenced by the fact that of those who claimed to be a democrat, many of those said "not a very strong democrat&quot

Much like me, many of these people will leave the democratic party as soon as the primary is over.
