"Progressive" politicians supporting Hillary are in for a surprise come their next election

Almost 88% of DFA members voting voted for Bernie.

Almost 79% of voting MoveOn members voted for Bernie.

DU members are overwhelmingly for Bernie.

The grassroots will not forget the betrayal. I don't care if the DNC has threatened to run and support a rival Democrat for their seat. I don't care if their families have been threatened. Those who claim to be progressive now have to walk the walk. Talking the talk is not enough!
