she will drag entire democratic party down with her.The dem establishment in forcing clinton down people's throats no matter what
is dooming themselves.In bashing bernie supporters like they have they will turn them off.i don't mean clinton supporters on DU
calling bernie supporters everything in book from racist to republican.Bill Clinton called bernie supporters like tea party.and
after he said it on MSNBC cory Booker wouldn't critice clinton for it.doesn't matter than many bernie supporters supported obama.

Independents don't like her.people are crazy if they think MSM will be as biased towards her against trump as they are now.

Her followers think she can run to right and pull SC card to get us all to fall in line.won't work.

people who support bernie if clinton gets nomination will fall into these 5

1:Hold their noise and vote for clinton
2:Stay home
3:Write in Bernie
4:Vote green or independent candiate
5:protest and vote Trump

As for congress this is where she hurts.dems have chance to take back senate but with her that goes out the window.and she could gurante gop controls next redistricting after 2020 ensuring at least another decade with gop house
