HRC has been doing fundraisers for quite some time, like the Clooney fundraiser. Most of the money goes to the DNC to dole out to the candidates. Bernie finally gave in to the pressure and is backing one person running for the Senate - one. He has also said he is backing three people running for the House. So no. Bernie hasn't done jack shit for down ticket Democrats running for office except bad mouth the Party. I find it incredulous that such an assertion could be made about HRC.

Then you are woefully out of touch with most Democrats SheenaR May 2016 #12

She has infuriated Bernie fans. I don't see a downside to that Tarc Jun 2016 #13
