Any vote or non-vote that isn't cast for the Democratic nominee is basically a boost for the right-wing.

Sometimes I feel like a certain small subset of pissy BS supporters WANTS the Repubs to win if Bernie isn't nominated. They see it as "punishment" for we minorities who failed to bow down to the will and whims of the liberal white male bloc. If they can't have Bernie, then they are just FINE with women losing reproductive choice, poor people losing food stamps, gays losing marriage rights, etc.

Does anyone else feel that "punishment" vibe from part of the Bernie crowd? A small part, yes, but still...it's freaking creepy.
