To be clear, not every Sanders supporter feels that way. In fact, the vast majority of them tell pollsters they plan to vote for Clinton this fall. But there is without doubt a vocal group here in Philadelphia unwilling to roll over and play nice with the presumptive nominee — no matter what Sanders says they should do.
That is an issue for Clinton — and for Sanders. A vocal minority in the context of, say, Sanders's speech to the convention tonight could be a major problem for party strategists doing everything they can to present a united front. Anything similar to what happened this afternoon — booing when Sanders mentions the need to support Clinton — would be a major embarrassment for the former secretary of state just days before she is set to formally take the reins of the national party.
The scariest thing if you are a member of the Democratic establishment? Not even Bernie Sanders seems to be able to control these people. The revolution is still happening for them, and no one can convince them otherwise.

Yea Bernie. feel the Bern!
They was robbed! LOL... you expect them to just take it?
It was never his in the first place.
The Democrats are revolting - and in this particular case, that’s a verb, not an adjective.
Sanders was merely a vehicle for the revolt. It doesn’t stop with his capitulation, and may actually intensify as a result.
Democrats were robbed of a democratic process and they all know it.
Ummm, really, it was Trump who started it, not Bernie
LOL, WastePo doing their best Baghdad Bob impression.
CGato
His supporters are going to Bern the place down!
you see that audience? They are pissed!
Plus, anyone see how dark that stage is? It is the most ugly and dark stage I have seen in decades, what were the designers thinking?
Now he can’t stop it.

why would he want to ???
I really do feel bad for them, it VERY WELL could have been us we were ALL very worried for quite some time!!!!!
Sometimes disasters can yield spectacular results.. unexpected results.
and then.. you have the dNC.
LOL.... yeah., just like conservatives for the GOP... haul 'em out every four years and then expect them to sit down and shut up!
Rats were robbed of getting more Free Stuff.
Hopefully, we come out of this with four or five parties with the Democrats and GOPe being minor parties.
what were the designers thinking?...Darkly, darkly.
Bernie was a fraud from the start, never believed the Commie stuff he was peddling..but for hardcore Commies, once you get them out of their mommy’s basements they wont go back in
AVENGE YOURSELVES AGAINST EVIL WITCH HILLARY AT THE DEMOCRAP CONVENTION!
AND VOTE TRUMP IN NOVEMBER!!!
And wikileaks leaked this Wasserman++ DNC treachery at the optimum time at the RAT convention
We got rid of the GOP establishment, now they can get rid of the Democrat establishment.
It WAS us.
Look up “Ron Paul Blackout” (and then for comparison look up “Bernie Sanders Blackout”).
If the media didn’t support Romney in the 2012 primaries like they support Clinton now, Ron Paul could very well have been the nominee; and if the polling was accurate, he would have beaten Obama (RP consistently outpolled Romney vs. Obama in a general election by more than enough to assure victory).
Imagine where we would be right now if we were four years into the Presidency of a man wholly devoted to the rule of law under the Constitution!
Lord of the Flies.
Or, more classically,
“For they sow the wind
And they reap the whirlwind.”
