There is a difference in how different candidates deal with loss and winning.

You lose, you get honest about it and gear up for the next battle... you do not keep trying to re-fight the one you lost..

So far Mayor Pete has won one outright.. but the top five or six all got delegates..and now they have moved on to the next elective process.. In the end, it is the total number of delegates.

It bothered the crap out of me that Hillary won almost 3 million, not 3 thousand, but 3 million more votes and we have the Great Pumpkin sitting in the white house just destroying our government.. I have full sympathy ..but you have to move on

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

How about the convention?

And one calls cheating. That is not ok. There is a way Democrats do the primary and I am good with that. But then, I was a competitive athlete. I know sore loser or winner. Easy to see.
