Sanders just-broadcasted exclusive interview on MSNBC.

[kstewart33]

In an interview with Chris Jansen:

He will work to try to convince the super delegates that he is the better candidate.

His one victory last night was Rhode Island and was proof that in open primaries he beats Clinton.

He is more electable than Clinton because all the polls say that.

He is not hurting Clinton in continuing the campaign. Then he lists Hillary's 'false charges' against him.

Talked about Clinton voting for the Iraq war, the TPP vote, Hillary's vote for fracking, etc. etc.

"There is a narrow path to victory" and he'll work as hard as he can to get the nomination.

But says he will work hard to be sure that the Republican nominee is not elected president.

Sounds like things won't change much.

[Stuckinthebush]

1. Ugh. I can't stand that fake Dem

He needs to fade away.

Oh, well. He's inconsequential now

[Agnosticsherbet]

2. That is called denial.

[Treant]

10. Yes, and

he's currently taking a bath in the Nile.

I'm waiting for him to reach the Crimea River stage.

[pandr32]

21. Not there yet?

He seems to be Crimea River-ing all over the place. Time for the media to take the mic away--he is bernt toast and they are all complicit in his destructive denial at this point. I guess as long as no-one says the actual words, "Hillary Clinton will be the Democrat nominee" it ain't so--right? Must be a game to see who says it first or something. Are they all in the bag for the Republicans?

[DemonGoddess]

3. He's doing as I expected

Very much NOT surprised at this.

[SharonClark]

4. That was just a short break in their Trump-24-7 coverage

[72DejaVu]

5. I'm gonna get a parrot

Teach it to say "narrow path to victory, narrow path to victory"

[spooky3]

14. More like "tight rope to victory"

[RandySF]

6. Sounds like there are two factions in the campaign

And Bernie is swayed one moment to the next.

[kstewart33]

22. Randy, that's an excellent summary of the interview.

Very combative with Clinton in one moment, "and the Republicans will attack her on many things that I have not" and later he says he'll work very hard, even if he is not the nominee, to be sure that the Republican nominee is defeated.

Bernie's having a really hard time with his present position in the campaign. And a guy whose baseline personality is grumpy grouch.

[Gothmog]

7. Sanders small dollar donors are drying up

Without the rather sad and false hope that he will be the nominee, it will difficult for Sanders to maintain the same level of fundraising

[stopbush]

8. "It's only a flesh wound! I'll gnaw you to death!"

Sanders allies warns superdelegates to not 'thwart the will of the people'
By ELIZA COLLINS 02/11/16 10:23 AM EST

In an apparent effort to blunt that momentum, MoveOn.Org Political Action — which has endorsed the Vermont senator — issued a petition Wednesday night calling on Democratic superdelegates to pledge to back who the voters and caucus-goers have selected in their states during the Democratic National Convention this summer.

“We will not allow Democratic Party insiders to determine the outcome of this election. Democratic voters will decide the party’s nominee,” Ilya Sheyman, who is the executive director, said in a statement. “There is of course no problem with superdelegates choosing to endorse whichever candidate they prefer, but when it comes time to select the party’s nominee at the Democratic Convention, superdelegates must stand with voters and honor the outcomes of primaries and caucuses held across the country. The party’s base simply will not tolerate any anti-democratic efforts by superdelegates to thwart the will of the people.”

Hypocrites and liars.

[DemonGoddess]

11. Democratic voters HAVE

by a 3 MILLION+ vote margin.

[ismnotwasm]

12. The will of the people is Hillary Clinton

Why is this hard to understand?

[Arkansas Granny]

13. He keeps going on about the "will of the people", "Democratic voters will decide", etc.

Popular vote to date:

Hillary Clinton 12,135.460
Bernie Sanders 8,967,445

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2016/president/democratic_vote_count.html

There you have the will of the people.

[savalez]

16. How long is this going to go on?

I can see it now...

Bernie has plan to hijack Hillary Clinton Presidency

He is going to sneak into the White House and sit in her chair.

[SharonClark]

27. LOL

[misterhighwasted]

17. He needs campaign cash & lots of it. FEC wants an explaination in 2 weeks.

Maybe Trump can bail him out of he promises to hang on just to back up Trumps overbloated bigoted hate-speak.
Someone will throw bernie a bone. He's got nowhere else to go.

[stopbush]

18. Ridiculous that MSNBC continues to provide wall-to-wall coverage of a loser

who is getting his clocked cleaned every day of the week.

[displacedtexan]

19. I'd like to thank Bernard Sanders personally.

He's made the sane repukes, who hate their candidates with a purple passion, decide to vote for Hillary Clinton instead.

Everything he rattles off repeatedly about her is a reason for sane repukes not to think she's as progressive as she really is.

Thanks, Sanders!

[SharonClark]

28. SO true

[pandr32]

20. Oh no! I had hoped he would get over himself finally.

He is a case for a psychologist I'm afraid. He needs help to accept reality and with behavior modification. His behavior absolutely colors over his prized "issues" to the point that he is becoming destructive and not progressive at all. It is one thing to crash and burn your own life, but when you are doing it to the Democrat Party after joining--something else again


Everyone in the media is talking as though Trump is the Republican nominee. He is strutting around as though he is Prez Trump today. Hillary? Nada She will be the nominee officially soon and they will still be talking like she shouldn't be. Odd considering she is the only one who is really qualified out of both parties.

[Walk away]

23. Bernie Sanders is acting like a fool.

This is going to come back and bite him in his saggy ass.

[Thinkingabout]

24. Interesting, if he was going to listen to the polls, what happened in the beginning when he was

down so very far, he continued to want to run, why listen to the polls now. I know, it is a new excuse this week, another for the next week and after the convention there will be another.

[grossproffit]

25. Delusions of grandeur.

[MFM008]

26. Is he still raising money?

Why?

[BeyondGeography]

29. The Supers: Hillary Clinton or the guy who couldn't handle the NY Daily News edit board?

Decisions, decisions.

[Lucinda]

30. Yep! How will they ever choose!

[anotherproletariat]

31. If anyone had doubts, it's now clear that his ego is greater than his principles

He would get much further in promoting his agenda by working with Hillary. Continuing to try and take her down will just show the establishment that Sanders can't be trusted to hold any position of responsibility.
