Abbreviated Pundit Round-up: Hillary v Bernie pales in comparison to Democrats v Republicans

Good read generally from Daily Kos, especially if one follows the embedded links to the source stories:

I think Hillary/Bernie supporters need to focus on this. With Ted Cruz and Donald Trump leading the GOP field, and November 2016 coming ever closer, D vs. R is where the substantive differences are.

Will that make anyone act differently between now and November? Not likely. But I’m saying it anyway because it’s true.

Namely that a Sanders nomination makes the election of the GOP nominee practically automatic. So in many ways, fighting against Sanders is a proxy against Trump/Cruz
