What is lost to you is that this is exactly why Bernie got into the race in the first place. To push the debate to the left. It wasn't to win. He may think he has a chance now (and he doesn't), but making Hillary take a position further left than she would have liked in the primaries was the original goal. And he did it well.

This is absolutely irresponsible. I can grant you the argument that we can't win with these candidates. That's fine. But we can sure as hell lose really fucking badly if we choose wrong. It's like the difference between getting slapped and getting run over by a fucking freight train. Neither is good, but one is a helluva lot worse.
