What do HRC supporters think they gain by trying to delegitimize the Sanders movement?
It goes without saying that HRC, if nominated, can't win without heavy and committed buy-in from those of us who support Bernie.
And it goes without saying that no Democratic nominee in the past has ever done well in the fall after treating the supporters of the other candidates like dirt.
So why is the HRC campaign doing exactly what has never worked for this party in the past?
How can anyone who supports that campaign and that candidate think that the heavy-handed ugliness, the arrogant dismissiveness, they are currently deploying can possibly lead to anything good fro the Democratic Party this fall?
If HRC is nominated, I am one of the Sanders supporters who will be trying hard to get our voters to back HRC. Why are you guys trying to make that so difficult?
Why stay with "winning ugly", when we don't win by winning ugly?
Why give us the "you have nowhere else to go" treatment when you have no votes to gain by treating us like that?

This primitive is a big bern-out and over the course of the last several months has been pointing out how billary is a corporate whore who will sell liberals down the river, etc.... You know the schtick by now.
I am forever amused by how easily liberals will cower when confronted. Here we have a bern-out who's called billary every name in the book, and now he's trying to negotiate his return to good graces with the eventual nominee and her supporters by trying to guilt them into being nice about the way he conducted himself on behalf of the bern.
He threatens that they can't win without him.
He threatens that treating those who supported the loser badly will not go well in the GE.
He claims he'll work hard for the eventual nominee, clearly demonstrating that he has no backbone since he's more than willing to support the very candidate he has been calling a whore, and thus violating everything he claimed he stood for in the past.
So he's wanting to surrender, but under his terms.
Of course the weak-kneed hillbots will gladly accept someone back into their ranks that has shown themselves to be two-faced since they, too, are two-faced.
