I just want to make sure I have this straight (Hillary Group) [View all]

Clinton can't count on some of Bernie's supporters support if she wins the nomination, because she is taking their votes for granted/is a 3rd way oligachist/is cheating.

But it is assumed Clinton supporters will all just fall in line if he wins the nomination (Which most of us will, because we're not idiots).

That is a really weird headspace some people are occupying.
