One of the big questions heading into the Democratic National Convention late last month was whether Hillary Clinton could rally Bernie Sanders supporters to her side. Before the convention, many Sanders supporters saidthey would support Clinton in a two-way matchup against Donald Trump, but when pollsters offered them third-party candidates as an option, they abandoned her.

Then, on the first night of the convention, Sanders gave his big speech urging his voters to support Clinton, and we can now see that the convention did help persuade some Sanders voters to switch. But about a third of Sanders’s voters are undecided or still going with a third-party candidate when given the choice.

Yet the election models show her way ahead of Trump, who as of today has a less than 20% chance of winning - 12% if you look only at the weighted polling averages.

Hillary is doing well now, but if not for two mistakes, complaining about the judge in the Trump University case and taking the bait on Kahn, Trump would be way ahead of her now. No one thought she could be beaten for the Democratic nomination in 2008 and no one though Sanders could come so close winning the nomination this year. One should never forget what weak candidate Hillary is.
 
Hillary does not need all of Bernie's supporters.

Surely Bernie's Bolsheviks are unnecessary.

They can keep rioting at Trump rallies but otherwise they are rather useless and annoying.

Hillary already has more primary votes than Trump has.

She should be fine.
 
There are two types of Bernie supporters. There are the ones who see him as their messiah and will do whatever he tells them to do (vote for Hillary).
Then, there are the ones who supported him because they thought he was a man of integrity. Now they know better and they see him as the sellout he really is and will either sit out the election or vote for Trump because they now know Bernie is a spineless piece of shit and that they've been sole a bill of goods by the man they once trusted who made them all look like fools.
 
There'll be a lot of left wing voters crossing the floor, this election.

These fringe lunatics aren't important, but it's good to know some of them won't vote or even vote Trump.

I'd estimate a lot more. The funny thing about all of this is that if you go to other sites, especially "liberal" news sites, they have relentlessly tried to get Sanders supporters to support Hillary. So, interviews with Chris Hedges, showcasing an article from Noam Chomsky, you know, all of these alleged heavies in the liberal world that talk about how bad the system is..............until you get down to it. The Democrat goons hired have gone from obnoxious as hell to "Gee whiz, the system sucks but I'm just going to have to go ahead and play the game" posts and 2020 we will get shit done. I'd be real careful with what you read.

Mother Jones made no pretense about who they were voting for. They actually had interviews with "activists" talking about how the revolution need not end here and it can continue and they are more organized now. Morons.

We are down to a bunch of propaganda demoralization shit. Fuck 'em.

You have the emails regarding sending people out to the rallies. By the time this is all over with, I have a hunch you will realize the rioting was not instigated by Sander's supporters and your going to need more than pointing fingers at folks wearing Bernie Sanders shirts.
