Not grasping the idea that there are Bernie supporters that are non-democrats and will not vote for Hillary, just like Bill got some conservatives that would not have voted for other dems (Hillary probably does too). People do vote their conscious and not just a logo.

Is watching all of these supposed Bernie supporters telling us who we have to support. The election was barely stared when they began the narrative. I posted on it once before I think, but Tom had for one day understood the Bernie or Bust was not us, but Independents and such and started defending them because he realized month of vote shaming was doing nothing good.

voters are assumed to be halfway between Clinton and Cruz--that they burned out of politics because of some personal failing by the voters, rather than the unappealing choices handed out by a nomenklatura that'd rather lose than win with a candidate they don't own and control

He donated $5400 in December

http://docquery.fec.gov/cgi-bin/fecimg/?201602209008661703

But received $2700 back because limit is $2700 for primary and $2700 for general he can re-donate the returned $2700 after Bernie wins the nomination
