PHILADELPHIA – Comic Sarah Silverman joined Sen. Al Franken Monday night to urge Democratic National Convention delegates to unite — then stirred up Bernie Sanders die-hards with some choice words: “To the Bernie or bust people, you’re being ridiculous.”

As a Sanders supporter herself, Silverman said she would now vote for Hillary Clinton “with gusto” as she continues to be “inspired and moved to action by the ideals set forth by Bernie, who will never stop fighting for us.”

She spoke on the convention’s opening day just before Paul Simon stood at a microphone and crooned the Simon and Garfunkel classic “Bridge Over Troubled Water.”
