(8,133 posts)Who don't think the ramifications of having a Republican winning is that serious, (must not realize what Bush did to this country), some people who have personalities where they do not compromise (many are men who have an authoritarian bent). Perhaps some mysogynists (some men - and even women) who hate women or do not believe women are capable of being in a leadership position. Some purists who think Bernie is pretty much perfect - similar to the people who worshipped Dean, Obama, Clark, etc. and ended up being very disappointed in the way their candidate behaved afterwards.
One cannot worship a politician - they are human and are very competitive and therefore apt to do almost anything to win, including telling supporters whatever they want to hear in order to win.
