(Poll) Democrats already having buyers remorse.

A majority of Democrats say presidential candidate Bernie Sanders should stay in the race through the party’s national convention in Philadelphia in July, a new poll finds.

Fifty-seven percent of Democrats said Sanders should stay in the race until the summer nominating event, according to an NBC News-Survey Monkey poll released Tuesday.

Only 25 percent said he should drop out after the last votes are cast on June 14 in the final Democratic primary in Washington, D.C. Sixteen percent said Sanders should drop out now.

and of the rest some will refuse to vote for her, some will vote for the GOP candidate, some will not vote at all, and some who don't want her will nevertheless end up voting responsibly for the Democratic candidate because we have a country to run.
