30%

30% of Sanders’s supporters say they will not support Clinton in the general election. Because Trump and Cruz are so much better, apparently.

Pathetic little dweebs. It’s the same kind of idiot loser who handed the state of Illinois to Rauner. They weren’t coming out to vote for Pat Quinn, the Democratic incumbent who was not as perfect and pure as they wanted him to be. And here we are now, sans a budget and with state colleges on the verge of closing. But the purists remained true to their principles. Yippee.

Every brainless creep who keeps chirping that there is no difference between a Republican and an “establishment Democrat” should come to Illinois and compare what it was like with the imperfect Quinn and what it is with Rauner.

    What poll is this?

    And — yes — I think part of why Sanders has the votes he has is that people who would not otherwise vote have gone out to vote for him. In other words — these people would not have come out to vote in the primary had it not been to vote for Sanders.

    I absolutely know Sanders voters who would never vote for HRC.
    Some of these people leaned Republican in the past.
    Others are people who just weren’t registered Democrats in the past.
    Some people just never voted, and it’s not just very young voters.

    It doesn’t make any sense to conduct these polls or to draw inferences from them in the heat of the primary battles. Let Clinton get the nomination and the party to get re-energized for the general election at the convention (where I’m sure Sanders will give a speech endorsing her).

    Let us also remember that this primary battle has been much less acrimonious than the onebetween Clinton and Obama in 2008 when, ironically, Clinton was unwilling to concede even when Obama’s nomination was a foregone conclusion.

    Am I the only one who remembers the Hillary-supporting PUMA idiots who vowed never to vote for Obama in the general election?

    “According to PUMA, “We [were] protesting the 2008 Presidential election because we refuse to support a nominee who was selected by the leadership rather than elected by the voters.”[4]”

    “PUMA has been criticized for its support of Republican candidates John McCain and Sarah Palin, especially considering the sharp policy differences between the Republican ticket and Hillary Clinton; this left the organization open to charges that it supported the McCain campaign solely out of spite, with no concern for whether a McCain victory would actually advance Hillary’s policy agenda.”

    Supporting Sarah Palin lol. Sound familiar?

      I don’t know what this PUMA is but Hillary fully supported Obama in the general election and her won because her voters didn’t turn away from the party after she lost the nomination. And the stakes then were lower than they are now. McCain was no Trump and no Ted Cruz.

      Was this PUMA 30% of Hillary’s supporters?

        “Their anger epitomized a wider unrest that has been mostly forgotten as Obama went on to win two general elections: In the days before the convention, only 47 percent of Clinton supporters said they were certain to vote for Obama. “
