I say this all the time--and I mean it: I will vote for the Dem nominee whoever it is because I can't sit by and watch a Trump or Cruz or Rubio win this. But young voters hear this stuff and don't like it.
The Supreme Court vacancy will energize right wing voters to show up in the General election and Hillary will need those young voters later if she does win. She will need their energy and votes and participation. Ripping into Bernie like this just makes her seem petty and calculating. It's not a good look.

(3,568 posts)Like most here, I used to be a huge fan of hers and hoped that one day she be President. That was then. Now I've come to the realization that I don't even like her as a human being.
For the first time in my life we have a real, true, honest-to-God, champion running for President. One who stands for the people, who has always stood for the people, and who will absolutely keep his word to be on our side and our side only. And it just galls me that Hillary Clinton is doing everything she can to destroy him and take his place.

(23,730 posts)not because of any Sandernista doublethink, but because of the records and the ever-deepening perception of who's honest and who's not: she's the one who made it so that her going to Flint is a publicity stunt on others' backs, while him going to Flint is an earnest attempt to expose to the US how people are suffering there
