Hillary Clinton

But one has to ask - what other loser has ever felt entitled to dictate terms to the winner, especially when that person lost badly?

I can see a negotiation where Sanders says, "the Dems need to start looking out for the middle class!" where the response is, "yeah, we've been doing that for decades. Next issue." "The Dems need to get serious about climate change!" "Yep, already doing that. Where have you been? Anything else?"

But it sets a very bad precedent to cave in to a person who - at best - achieved a minority of support in the party he couldn't be bothered to join until it was advantageous to his chances.

And I am not convinced that Hillary "needs" all of those Sanders voters to win. She won at least 55% of the primary vote. Of the 45% Sanders won, 85% of them say they'll vote for Hillary. That means that 93% of people who voted in the D primaries WILL vote for Hillary. Does she really need that final 5-7% of BoB Sanders zealots to win? With Trump as her opponent, Rs openly saying they'll vote for Hillary, and Trump facing massive shortfalls in the women and minority votes, does she really need to appease those die-hard Sanders voters? I don't think so.
