Sanders Campaign Just Admitted Defeat - It's Over

[stopbush]

They issued a statement saying that Hillary's big wins tonight lock in her super delegate support. Translation: they're giving up on flipping the supers.

Also said they will now run an issues/message oriented campaign to influence the party platform (fat chance, deaf ears, losers don't dictate terms to the victors), saying Sanders supporters in the remaining states should have the opportunity to vote for him. Translation: an empty, feel good gesture. Pure vanity on Sanders' part.

Chuck Toad calling it as close to a concession speech as possible.

4. Yeah, but they're still sending out nasty fundraising emails about her. That just seems wrong on...

so many levels. Continuing with the scorched earth campaign, and taking money from suckers, even though you've admitted that you have no path to victory. It's just wrong.

He wants to divide our party.

13. MSNBC also reporting the Sanders campaign will "reassess" tomorrow

It may take them a little while to really stand down, but yes. It's over.
