The fact that Cruz and Trump can't stand each other is a big problem. In message board context: attack the policy/words/actions but not the person. Cruz and Trump made things personal. Trump attacked Cruz's wife and dad for Christ's sake.

Bernie has said bad things about some things Hillary has done such as vote in favor of the Iraq war and take money from huge corporate interests. That's not quite the same thing as calling Hillary names or saying Hillary's dad killed JFK. Do you see the difference?
Still, Bernie has been badmouthing Hillary for a year now. All of a sudden she is his choice. Freaking hypocrite. I feel the same about the republicans who now endorse Trump.
I don't get the logic here. No Democrat or Republican could ever endorse another candidate they ran against if they were held to this standard. Sanders has pretty much avoided running down Hillary as a person, or assailing her character. He's said the whole time the priority is stopping Trump and kept the focus on policy differences between him and Hillary.

I think Cruz are in the right here simply because Trump is such an exceptionally horrible candidate. Otherwise I'd expect most candidates to compromise, fall in line and push the person that comes closest to what they want. That's how things get done.

I disagree. With all the "establishment bashing" Bernie did only to fall right in line with what the "establishment" does is hypocritical to me. If he wanted us to truly believe he is anti establishment, he would have endorsed someone else.

I think I see one person of color there - on second thought, looks more like the result of a tanning booth.

I hope we get at least 4 years of hearings on that picture.
