Vote for her. He hasn't said he recommends his following to vote for her or that he will campaign for her. He will eventually.

There's going to be hell to pay if Sanders supporters go indie or whatever, and allow the orange guy to win it. It already pisses me off.

It's not going to happen. Bernie has to let his following down gently they are pretty badly bruised right now. He doesn't want to have them all bolt to Jill Stein / Green party or God forbid for tRUMP as a protest vote. I sympathize though with them I feel pretty battered this time around. A choice between Autocracy / Authoritarianism ( tRUMP) or Plutocracy / Corp style ( HRC) isn't what I had in mind, but it's all our system seems to be able to deliver these days.

Think back though, which election has ever been more than a choice between the lesser of two evils. This is the American system. We never had a good choice in my lifetime, not a truly viable and winnable one at least.
