The bitter BoB'ers we have here are a small, fringe group of angry people that will find out that they're as immaterial as the PUMAs were in 2008.

I am not ready to give up on Bernie just yet, but I will definitely make phone calls for Hillary if she is the nominee, and if my back recovers to the point where sitting in the car for long periods is not painful I will travel to swing states for her as well. And I will probably vote for her too. The only reason I say probably is because I live in a solidly blue state where casting a protest vote won't matter. If I lived in a swing state I wouldn't think twice about voting for her.

When I volunteered for Bernie during the primary, every other volunteer I met said they would vote for Hillary in November if she is the nominee. Some said they would have to hold their nose, but I did not meet a single "Bernie or Bust" person. It's a shame the media is giving so much attention to the few extremists who are giving our candidate a bad name.

By the time the general election really gets rolling, no one will remember this primary.
