Those "disaffected Republican voters" Bernie is talking about are working class stiffs who are finally coming around to to how they've been fucked over by their corporate masters for decades. I could care less how they are registered if they're waking up.

Hillary, on the other hand, is going after wealthy Bush donors...and if you don't see the difference, then you have my deepest sympathies.
