I think a lot of voters could be pretty mad at Sanders if Biden does wrap up the nomination but Sanders doesn’t drop out. I was really struck, in talking to voters in Michigan over the weekend, by how tired some of them seemed of the primary. There was a kind of sentiment of — ok, we’ve finally got someone the party is coalescing around, let’s stop fighting and get ready to beat Trump in November. Of course, Sanders might stay in regardless, but a drawn-out fight with an all-but-foregone conclusion doesn’t seem like it’s going to win him a lot of brownie points (outside his base) this year.
