If I were a Berniecrat I'd rather have Ellison in the House than as fundraisier/hack-in-chief. What if he's replaced on Congress by a Blue Dog? How does that help the movement at all?

Best case he's replaced by another Berniecrat, but the new one will be inexperienced and less effective for a while.

Who gives a sh*t, nothing good is gonna come out of Congress any time soon, and 1/435th is an irrelevancy.

More relevant than a fundraiser who supports ALL democratic nominees no matter what. If the Vermont Democratic Parry decided to nominate against Bernie in 2018, Chairman Ellison will be required to endorse the guy.

Everybody wins! The Clinton Camp gets their man in a glorified irrelevant fundraising position, and the Bernie Camp gets their man fighting for them in Congress, where policy positions matter.
