A big part, but another big part is boomers waking up to their utterly inevitable mortality and channeling that fear into "other".
The Bern destroyed Clinton. Not to worry, Hillary now heads to where her core constituency is strong. The poorly educated and the outright stupid.
Dems are in trouble. They have a candidate that everyone hates and doesn't trust, and a borderline commie who can only promise minimum wage job growth, and a worthless degree for free.

On both sides, this is what happens when the sheep realize they've been treated like sheep. They resist being herded but it doesn't mean they know where to go.
After Crushing Defeat, DNC Quirk Still Gives Hillary More New Hampshire Delegates Than Sanders
http://dailycaller.com/2016/02/10/h...-hampshire-delegates-than-sanders-after-loss/
Though Bernie Sanders won the New Hampshire primary in a landslide over Hillary Clinton, he will likely receive fewer delegates than she will.
Sanders won 60 percent of the vote, but thanks to the Democratic Party’s nominating system, he leaves the Granite State with at least 13 delegates while she leaves with at least 15 delegates.
New Hampshire has 24 “pledged” delegates, which are allotted based on the popular vote. Sanders has 13, and Clinton has 9, with 2 currently allotted to neither.
But under Democratic National Committee rules, New Hampshire also has 8 “superdelegates,” party officials who are free to commit to whomever they like, regardless of how their state votes. Their votes count the same as delegates won through the primary.
New Hampshire has 8 superdelegates, 6 of which are committed to Hillary Clinton, giving her a total of 15 delegates from New Hampshire as of Wednesday at 9 a.m.
The state’s 2 remaining superdelegates remain uncommitted.
In the overall delegate count, Clinton holds a commanding lead after a razor-thin victory in Iowa and a shellacking in New Hampshire. Clinton has 394 delegates, both super and electorally assigned, to only 42 for Sanders.
(I take it that Bernie is feeling the Bern. To me the entire Democratic primary system is just a form of voter fraud, something the Democrats claim does not exist. For the most part your vote is meaningless, the party will select the nominee.)

Do you find it ironic that that Hillary is trying to invent a new, non-establishment persona, all the while benefiting hugely from the establishment? I do.
Like I wrote in a post last week, the system is rigged towards Hillary. She will get most all of the super delegates regardless of the popular vote. This is why I say that her support in the general election will be tepid at best. All of those "feel the Bern" voters may just decide to stay home as they realize how they've been hosed. Sanders, hard as it would have been to believe a few months ago, has a better chance of winning the general than Hillary does.
