Anxiety of a Bernie Sanders Democrat ticket begins to spread down the ballot in Miami

105. I'm well aware of the fact that the average voter might not hang out at DU.

I wasn't assuming that at all. But the average registered Democratic voter still usually votes a straight Democratic ticket in a Presidential election no? My question was in reference to that....what is the likely percentage of people who will vote for Bernie if he's on the ticket, and they either like him or don't but are voting blue no matter who....and then not also voting for down ballot Dems? Most people vote a straight ticket and especially in a Presidential election. Love him or hate him, if Bernie is the nominee, and people are actually pulling the lever for him, even those who don't pay attention the minutiae of politics, I think its likely that they will pull the lever for the rest of the Dem ticket. This Dems in Despair gnashing of teeth thing about Bernie is a bit much. If he gets to be on the ticket....he is the Democratic nominee, like it or not....vote for him and vote for his House and Senate to come along with him so we can attempt to get things done. I won't be happy if Bloomberg is on the ticket but I damn sure would vote for him and for his accompanying Democrats with no question. That is what a real Democrat does.
