If the DNC continues the way it did tonight (by which I mean, a procession of amazing speeches, not hecklers sowing the seeds of division), I think Hillary will get a bigger bump than the other did.
Bernie supporters are not going to vote for Hillary just because Bernie says they should.
80% of Bernie supporters polled have said they would. That number isn't going down after the convention, but tell yourself whatever you have to if it helps you sleep at night.
Honestly, I am so sick and tired of this illusory threat of leverage that a lot of Bernie supporters act like they have. If Bernie had gotten the nomination, you would be pissed off if Hillary supporters acted half as poorly as y'all did about it. If we had said, "We're not voting for the lesser of two evils!! #HillaryOrHell" y'all would be seething. I'm sick of this. If you want Donald Trump, sure, don't vote Hillary. I'm glad you're privileged enough to not be worried about his presidency. But, you know, if I want a coke and am given a pepsi, I'm not going to set myself on fire because of it.

lol on the convention snapchat story, after sarah cracked that joke about the busters, someone uploaded a video of people laughing and captioned it "so much for party unity"
like yall are out here marching in the streets saying trump is less dangerous, screaming "lock her up" and booing your own modern day jesus christ bernie sanders because he dared endorse her? and you talk about hillary supporters laughing at a joke? bye

You just scalped me and I agree 100% with what you said
I'm becoming more and more confident in a clinton presidency as time goes on, knowing that 80 per cent of bernie voters would vote clinton. let's go clinton, let's go!

Let's hope for Hillary's sake everyone got their dissent out tonight. The media will go full steam ahead with Michelle and the other speeches, but they may not be able to gloss over consistent days of booing and unrest.
The 80% number doesn't factor in the leaks or the convention, so we'll see what happens.
Bernie apparently gave the same speech verbatim two weeks ago, but I guess if it aint broke.....
This is bad. Hillary's plan is to fix Obamacare and not move towards a liberal system. But Obamacare might completely fail by the end of the year. Taxpayers have already lost 1.7 billion on just these co-ops. She'll be stuck fighting for a failing system while Trump promotes his state line stuff. Not mention the price skyrocket in October.
Hillbillies need to stop demanding the BernieBots jump on her ship immediately. The shaming going on is really rude.
I'm not expecting you or other BernieBots to jump on board automatically. I'm simply sick and tired about y'all expecting us to cater to y'all 24/7. It's extremely tiring to hear threats that Hillary needs to concede and that we're to blame for Hillary's destined loss in November because we didn't vote for the candidate of your choice. If you don't want to vote Hillary fine. But don't threaten Hillary supporters or Hillary with leverage as if its viable. Hillary's platform won, end of discussion.
