Jeff Merkley doesn't expect other senators to join him in endorsing Bernie Sanders
Jeff Merkley (D-Ore.) is the lone senator to have publicly endorsed Bernie Sanders for president. And he doesn't expect any of his colleagues to follow suit, he said Monday on MSNBC.
"I think everyone kinda cast their lot early on and rarely — they don't change unless there's something like a John Edwards blowup, and nobody is anticipating that in this case," he said, referring to Edwards' affair. "I think people's positions are pretty set."
