Democrats ARE the Left, so why do even her own supporters feel she needs to be nudged over to the left? Doesn't that tell them something? Like maybe they should support someone who has always been on the Left?

And who says Bernie doesn't have a chance to win? I SAY HE DOES!

I hope this meme goes away because it's clearly a talking point, intended to crush enthusiasm and it is not true unless they succeed in crushing the enthusiasm people are feeling right now.
