Related: About this forum72% of Sanders supporters will vote for Hillary. 2008: 60% of Hillary voters would vote for Obama.
Polled at this point of the election, just reported on MSNBC.
Bernie or Bust is total Bullshit.

(10,123 posts)If you visited PUMA forums, some of them were racists (and no i'm not saying all Hillary supporters are racists - in fact I strongly suspect few are). But back then, it was noticeable.

(18,115 posts)You started an op premised on the point that Bernie supporters are more loyal to the dem party than Hillary supporters were.
Maybe Bernie supporters are just less racist than Hillary supporters.

(10,721 posts)But I do think a clear majority of Sanders supporters will ultimately vote for Clinton in November. The DU crowd is not representative of the population at large. And the following article reinforces the OP: http://www.mediaite.com/online/how-bad-is-poll-that-says-25-of-bernie-sanders-fans-wont-vote-for-hillary/
All of the BoB talk combined with an adherence to hypothetical general election match-up polls (which have proven to be historically worthless), along with some bitterness and wishful thinking, has given rise to the notion that only Sanders can beat Trump. Even though there's a pretty broad consensus outside of the DU bubble that says different.
