I seriously believe it wouldn't matter to them whether he was compos mentis or not. He could be a drooling vegetable and they'd endorse him just to preserve party unity. The only alternative is Sanders and his socialism.
Look at how many people knowingly endorsed Trump.
And if Sanders is the Democratic candidate that is exactly what they should do, but the same applies in reverse. If people throw a tantrum because their perfect candidate didn't get the nomination and fail to get out and vote, well then they will have no one to blame but themselves if the USA winds up with a 2nd Trump term.
Don't be silly, no one in swing states wants that guy. You've got your spot in the corner next to the Greens, go back and wait there, we'll get around to possibly considering your policies someday. And please remember to raise your hand and wait to be called on before speaking, these are the rules that the whole party voted on, mkay?
No, he parrots people and gets it wrong, but insists he didn't. Like that hurricane which he was told something like "could impact places as far as Alabama," that he interpreted as "it could hit Alabama," and went so far as drawing a track hitting Alabama on a NOAA prediction map with a sharpie, just to avoid having to admit he misspoke.
Let's be honest though - one of his primary qualifications as compared to those who have already dropped out was "ability to raise campaign money". At least if we are to take their word for it at face value. And yeah, that's a pretty insane criterium for choosing a candidate when you think about it.
