I would feel differently about it there was multiple viable Democratic candidates and they were helping out the favorite. Since Bernie was just renting the ticket, I don't feel this applies here.

If Bernie ended up with < 5% of the voters / delegates, I might be obliged to agree with you, but that's far from the end result. It seems he's far more in-line with the democratic party, according to the party itself, than you're suggesting.

The guy joined the party 1 year before the primary and he's planing on coming back to the senate as a independent. Just because he does caucus often with democrats does not change my assertion that he was just renting the ticket.
This is a big difference and it matters to the party (organization).
