Just curious if Bernie is successful at pulling Hillary way to the left at the convention does that help her or hurt her in the general election against Trump?
The problem here is that she will say what she has to say, but it has zero bearing on what she will actually do if elected. She is the perfect liar, with no emotional attachment to the balance of truth vs lie. Her life is an example of "do what you have to do to win".
She will make the promises, I guarantee you that. The only one she will follow up on is amnesty to further push the conservative middle class into oblivion.

it depends on two things
1)how polished Trump is by the general
2)how far left Hillary has swung
ok I lied,
3) What specific issues are in play during the last month of the election and how far left hillary swings on them.
a far left position on gun control, abortion, and immigration would put her outside the norm of the american voter, however few people actually vote soley on one issue anyway.

Bernie supporters are in the drivers seat.
The Democrats can not win without the Bernie Gang, and they know it.
Hillary has not talked real "Policy" since her campaign began, but Bernie's Gang has been talking policy since day one.
Bernie's Gang is scheduled to gather at the People's Summit in Chicago on June 17th.
The People's Summit - The People's Summit The People's Summit
They are going to insist on Bernie going to the convention and to bring the "Policy Issues" to the floor for debate in addition to challenging the super delegates.
The uproar at the convention will show just how "Insincere" Hillary really is.
Trump is not the only candidate building walls.
Both the Republicans and Democrats are going to build huge walls around both convention centers to keep the voters out.

i fully agree with your first paragraph.The problem here is that she will say what she has to say, but it has zero bearing on what she will actually do if elected.

I think its a wash in that she is running against Trump - 2016's George Wallace, so unless she gets caught molesting a 5 year old, she is going to win easily regardless of her positions on the issues.
Thanks for this post - there's a lot I agree with here.Bernie supporters are in the drivers seat.

People claim that Bernie's Gang will vote for Hillary just to stop Trump.
But, Bernie's supporters realize that there is no "substantive" difference between the two main parties.
They just play musical chairs and give the illusion of a functioning democracy.

When Hillary suggests that Trump "Delete" his account and drop out of the race even though he is the nominee, then why can't Bernie's Gang demand the same thing from Hillary?

In a sense, every American is being called a "Suspect" (a possible terrorist) in the Suspect Nation.

"Why do grandparents & grandkids get along so famously? Common enemy"!
I think your analysis is excellent, and Steve Kornacky (MSNBC) has been preaching the same for a week or more.people that vote pro-gun always vote republican regardless of who the democrat is. The same is true for those that vote pro-life. The immigration issue on balance helps democrats as they benefit from minority votes. All hillary has to do is look competent and not a racist or bigot and she will easily win. Republicans already get the white vote. Romney got a higher percentage of the white vote than even reagan got. There is no more of the white vote for trump to get. What republicans have to do in order to win in the general is pick up at least 40% of the hispanic vote as bush did in 2004. Trump does not stand a chance in hell of doing that. He has given the hillary camp more than enough quotes and twitter postings to run the most effective negative ad campaign against him since at least lbj / goldwater. Not only is trump going to lose in the general, he will lose big, and at least take the senate with him. All this running against a weak candidate like hillary. All the republicans had to do was nominate a moderate center right candidate and they would have easily won. Instead they nominated the worst candidate they could have possibly found (other than maybe ted cruz).

But to the second paragraph: While she's a pure salesmen to minorities, I wouldn't necessarily say they can count on her deeds & actions equaling her words.
I'de say the conservative class are already most of the way to "oblivion". They have no one left to even vote for. It was inevitable. It is time for them to get on with their lives and stop worrying about politics.
