Democratic Superdelegates: You are stupid and traitors!
That's what I've been reading on my Congressional representative's FB page and on my Senators pages. Posted over and over again by some folks who also claim to be Sanders supporters. Now, they've won elections to their offices in my state, and more than once. Apparently the voters here disagree about their being stupid traitors.
I had a chance to talk to the congressional rep from my district this past Saturday at our state senate district convention. It was a brief conversation. I told her I was sorry that she was having to deal with so many ugly attacks on her FB page (she or a staffer have been deleting them about as fast as they come in). She told me that she would never let such things change her vote at the convention when balloting began. She said that she will be voting, as a superdelegate, for the candidate with the majority of pledged delegates.
So, to all of those folks who think posting vile insults and attacks aimed at superdelegates:
It Won't Work! They are not the stupid ones in this business, I assure you. Nor are they traitors. They are our elected representatives, and they'll do the right thing at the convention by affirming the voters and voting for the candidate with the majority of pledged delegates.

Now he thinks they could be useful to him so I'm pretty sure that tune has changed a little. 
What kind of rational people do such vile and unnecessary things anyway? They're just acting-out. It's not as if it will actually accomplish anything.
But, I suppose the only purpose it serves is to make those people feel like they have "control" over a situation that's completely OUT OF their control.
It's a temper tantrum. Not a mature way to handle disappointment, is it?
