Scales have fully dropped from these eyes. I've always supported Hillary, but am now totally, thoroughly and completely disenchanted with Bernie.

Were the NV episode and the ongoing barrage of negative campaigning really worth it for him? IMO, he has lost a LOT of goodwill recently - and that loss is reflected in the people I know in real life, some of whom are Bernie supporters.
