I Don't Think The BSers Realize They Only Get To NOT Vote For HRC Once in the GE

Every day, there's a new poutrage in the Sanders camp over the latest evil visited upon Sanders supporters by the all-powerful Hillary Clinton.

Today's earth-shattering evil has something to do with Sanders groups being deleted on FB...or not, depends on which post you read. We Hillary supporters are told in no uncertain terms that it is exactly THIS kind of evil that will turn millions of voters away from voting for Hillary in the GE. Oooo! We better stop it if we have any hope of beating Trump in the GE because Sanders voters are pure and their votes are better...whatever.

But to believe this to be true, you would need to believe the following:

1. That there is anything Hillary could say or do that would inspire the Bernie or bust zealot to cast their vote for her

2. That there are presently millions of Sanders voters who would happily vote for Hillary if Sanders isn't the nominee, UNLESS there's one or two or, no, THREE more evil things that Hillary does, at which point, all bets are off! Yep, just THREE...no...FOUR more evils, and they're not voting for her...ever!

3. That the Bernie or bust cabal is growing in numbers as the campaign winds down. Yes, you need to believe that more and more voters who preferred Hillary all along are now switching to Sanders as more and more of Hillary's evil powers are revealed to the world through the magic of the internets.

Well, the delusional mind has a reality all its own.

Unless each member of the Bernie or bust crew is allowed to vote against Hillary multiple times in the GE, I don't see how they think this all works to stop Hillary from becoming president.
