The joke is on you people because the Democrats will never be running another candidate with that much baggage.
Nothing personal or mean-spirited, but I'll believe that when I see it.
Since the loss the DNC leadership has refused to accept that it was their choice of candidate. Harry Reid declared the Democratic Party doesn't have to change a thing. They have already promoted / rewarded the architects of their defeats in 2014 and 2016 - the likes of Nancy Pelosi.
It's as if the Democrats still believe it isn't THEM - who Sanders said abandoned the Middle Class and who have not represented their constituents/followers for a long time. They believe the problem is those Americans who fail to recognize their brilliance and who refuse to be ruled.
I personally hope you're right and that Libs figure it out, never to run such a flawed candidate again.
