First of all, the republicans did not do anything to undermine Bernie's image during the primary instead setting their target on Hillary! they knew that she will be the main opposition and setup out early to destroy her! http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/hill...a1ce62037e
rest assured, if Bernie was the main candidate they would have gone all out to destroy him. So don't take the easy ride Bernie got during the primary as an indication of the flow of things in the final election round! It would have 100 times different. He too would have hacked, lies spewed about him, etc etc.
It even took the FBI to join the game! That too would have been used against Bernie! They would have made look worse than communist Putin!!!
