Seeing LOTS of Bernie supporters switching sides tonight.

[Chichiri]

On my Facebook feed and on Reddit. "LOTS" is relative to the past several weeks, but it's a much larger rate than I've seen a while. Between Bernie's comments tonight and the NYDN interview, the more independent-minded Bernie supporters are realizing exactly what kind of President he would be -- or rather, wouldn't be.

1. Bernie and President don't belong in the same sentence.

What a truly scary notion.

[Treant]

10. Sure they do!

"Bernie won't be President" sounds about right at this point.

2. K&R. nt

3. He will not end the week on a high note, the truth is now coming to light.

4. I've raised two sons ...

One "got" math earlier than the other.

Eventually, even if it takes a fact walking up and slapping you in the face, you realize that folks like Newton, Pascal and Pythagoras were right. There is no bias with math.

5. Please don't gloat over this (not saying that you are)

But this can be a tough decision for some people and I think we should welcome them with open arms.

6. Jumping ship because bernie, weaver & devine are out of fucking control

I swear they've sold their souls for a few bags of gold to the Koch Teaparty.
The true Dems are leaving him. Whats left is the fringe.
Things are getting very real for many people.
Bernie is revealing himself before the nation and it is just fuckin creepy.
He is frightening.

7. I have such a bad image of him in my mind

especially after reading his "poetry". I can't help it. When he talks about being a feminist and his support of women there is an ick factor I can't get over.

So I'm not a fair judge of most of what he says because of that. I still wouldn't be a fan of his but maybe I would be a little more forgiving.

Nah. Even republicans say Hillary is the most qualified candidate. What is wrong with him?

8. Wow! Good to hear, Chi! Good to know.. thank you!

9. I knew once he was no longer perceived as "the underdog", the media would turn on him. It's what...

they do. His recent "winning streak" has brought him to the fore, and he may regret it. Every serious candidate in this race, have received extensive vetting, aside from the two sideshows which are BS & Drumpf. I don't watch much tv news anymore, because everywhere I looked there was either BS or Drumpf, or both of them. And if they weren't talking about them, they were scrolling crap at the bottom of the screen about them.

I'm hoping, like your Facebook feed, that a lot more people are paying attention now.

[Stand and Fight]

11. That would be a dream come true, Chi.

I rarely visit Facebook anymore and mostly stay on here and Twitter. Between the scared right wingers and the vapid -- not all -- Bernie supporters, I don't care to be on there. Seeing the supposed left saying the same thing as the right wingers is disgusting. On the other hand, it strengthens my resolve. Gave another $300 tonight to elect Hillary as president.

12. Me too...and others who were previously vocal have stopped posting 'all Bernie all the time'

There clearly has been a cultural change in the last 48 hours.

13. He'd be dreadful.
