Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., said in an interview with NBC News that he will encourage progressive voters to still back Democrats on the ticket in November even if moderates are victorious in the primaries.
And how does electing Republicans improve things? Because not voting Dem in the general results in Republicans being elected. And THAT sends the message that the party should cater more to those who do vote, which swings the party to the right.

Socialists are absolutely running the liberal Dems off the board

Which party do those progressives belong to, again?
Why would this be terrible for me, specifically? I vote for Democrats.
