How many of these Democrats only took money from Bernie-grassroot-activists?

I support campaign reform, but Democrats actually need to win to pass it, and to win they need money lest they have a massive handicap.

Maybe the trick can work in the presidency, but there are many races (especially considering redistricting is coming soon) where funding is going to get tight. This purity-at-all-costs is sounds nice and all, until Republicans take the Senate and gerrymander the shit out of the places they can.
