I don't think of it that way. I think of it as a fissure that has significantly widened/deepened, which has lasting consequences.

Speaking personally there is simply no way I can support HRC given her utterly catastrophic foreign policy record.

Not arguing over whether you shld vote HRC in 2016. I'm arguing over this idea that fight for Dem Party lost for good.

I don't think anyone in this thread has argued for that proposition.

No, I think continued competition within the party is tenable.
