Warren voters 2nd choice being Kamala or Buttigieg aligns perfectly with my theory that a lot of Dems feel personally slighted by Bernie, and erroneously blame him for Hillary's loss.

I'd say it's a combination of factors.

-Treatment of female staffers during the past campaign. Sexual Harassment, and women being paid less. Maybe not Sanders fault, but definitely would've expected better from him.
-Age. The difference between Warren and Sanders isn't too big, but Sanders is definitely closer to 80 than to Warren.
-Some people probably do blame his supporters for Hillary's loss.
-A lot of people don't feel he plays nicely with Democrats. He caucuses with them, but refuses to identify as one (until he decides to run for President)

Sanders is probably my second or third choice behind Warren. Harris would probably be a solid second if her record as a prosecutor better matched her current rhetoric. But I think people have some concerns about Bernie other than "He cost Hillary the election", though for some, it's clearly an issue.
