Apparently some of Bernie's supporters are really turning these SuperDs off by their aggressive "persuasion" to switch their support to him.

If they wouldn't have switched in the first place (e.g., Cardin - who is not my favorite Senator by the way - I'm still VERY pissed off at his vote on the Iran Nuclear Deal), they'll be doubling down on their support for Clinton after being exposed to such aggression. We've tried to tell Bernie supporters about how such tactics do NOT help their candidate, but they simply accuse us of being patronizing - or worse.

They can consider us "brain-dead" all they want for supporting our candidate and offering advice. But most of us have been out and about in the "real world" enough to know that honey ALWAYS catches more flies than vinegar.
