We'll see. Hardcore Sander's supporters are hardcore AGAINST Hillary as fervently as they are against REPs.I do not think so. One thing you should know about Bernie, is he HATES Rs. He has spouted for decades his hatred for Rs. So, seems likely he will back Cankles and tell his supporters to do the same. Plus if you really think a Bernie supporter will vote for any R, even a progressive elitist like Trump, you need to rethink your thinking.Indiana was a disaster for the Hillary campaign.
Sure Hillary will get the nomination. But that's far from what's the real problem for Hillary.
Her problem is the longer Sanders refuses to quit the more entrenched Sander's supporters become, the less likely they are ever to vote for Hillary.
Everyday Sanders stays in the race Hillary loses potential voters.
When Sanders promises he will never quit until after a contested DEM convention forces him to he means it.
After Hillary gets the nomination at least 90% of Sander's hard-core supporters are either going to vote for Trump out of spite or they are going to write in Donald Duck or they are going to stay home and watch Doctor Zhivago.
Additionally Sanders is actually offering what he believes are real world solutions especially to young supporters and GOD bless their foolishness, they believe him.
Young Sander's female supporters are never going to vote for Hillary 'The Enabler'.
Polls show this fact.
I don't believe Sandres ,no matter what, will ever explicitly tell his supporters to suddenly disregard everything Sanders preached to them about Hillary being a 'Wall Street Whore'. He has way too much integrity to do that.
The closest he will come will be to say during his concession speech after a VERY divisive contested convention is: "We fought the best fight we could. We changed the political social landscape. Now you must all vote for your convictions".
That's not going to help Hillary much.
There is obviously a very deep resentment among young DEMs against the Washington establishment which Hillary is its decades long 'Poster girl', as witnessed in the Indiana primary.
Hillary is in major trouble.
Sanders bullshit promises are no more worse than Trump, who as we speak in building shit in Mexico......Bernie all the way!!
