... you've got to separate the signal from the noise. The signal is that democrats would be perfectly fine with a Clinton candidacy (including Sanders supporters). The democratic contest has actually been pretty cordial... moreso then in 2008 IMO.
I think my point more is most Bernie supporters are not Democrat supporters. Hillary has actually easily and by far won the vote of those who identify as "Democrat" so far in the primaries. Bernie supporters are more independents and people who probably have never been involved in the political process. Which makes how his supporters will break sort of unpredictable. Could they fall in line? Sure but of course they could also totally buck because they don't want to support "the establishment".
