Perception is reality. The perception is that the DNC has had its finger on the scale for Hillary since before day one. Shenanigans like what happened at the Nevada caucuses only reinforce that perception. Accordingly, there is a very strong likelihood that Bernie supporters will stay home in droves is Clinton is the nominee.
Worse, it will alienate and discourage all the young voters flocking to Bernie. The result could be a generation of disaffected citizens with no expectation that their vote makes a damn bit of difference.
