51. The reason they supported Clinton, is the reason they are leaving Clinton

The reasons for support of Clinton can be encapsulated into a nucleus that holds the key to the matter. It was all about competency, control, power, money, indebtedness, and "inevitability".

The Sanders campaign, like an errant particle, has hit that nucleus and caused a chain reaction. It's turning out to have been not all that stable a nucleus at all.

Once people question the competency, they are no longer as impressed by the money and power. Those things can't guarantee how the public perceives you. Indebtedness is a dynamic concept in politics, and nobody is indebted to a sinking ship. Everyone owes loyalty to the party, but as Sanders cleaves apart the premise that somehow the fortunes of Clinton and the party are one, so too is that neutralized.

These leaves left spinning separately, the notion of "inevitability". Seen by itself, for itself, it's not persuasive. It doesn't have the weight to overwhelm the desires of participants in the primaries to vote for what they believe in.
