Rachel: "Then, at (the convention), they'll just pick HIM 'cause he's SO awesome...!" Bwaahaaa!

"A strategy that sounds riskily similar to John Kasich's on the Republican side..."


She and Steve Kornacki pretty much put pay to the Bern's deluded dreams of a massive "super" switch in July. Great segment on her show last night.

I'll try to find a clip.

He's so awesome and helps all the Dems down ticket and isn't suing the DNC and hasn't torn down Dem for Decades..

This is one good reason why Hillary has most of the Super Dels with her.. Most of the Democratic Leaders are Down Ticket.. Amazing! They appreciate those who know we're all in this together.. not just for ourselves.

At least, that's what I gather from his rantings on the stump.

When Hillary clears 2300 combined delegates, the 31 superdelegates he has picked up may well flip to Hillary.

...were ridiculing his decision to do a campaign stop in Wyoming the other day.

And this morning Carol Costello on CNN was grilling Lyin' Jeff (Weaver), who had the chutzpah to claim that Sanders has raised millions of dollars for Democratic candidates.

Seems that as things move along everyone is seeing past the smoke and mirrors.

The entire Bernie Strategy revolves around nonaffiliated college-age males who can bully Hillary supporters out of the room. Saturday's caucus is for Democrats only, and Wyoming only has one university. Bernie may not do as well as his caucus history suggests.
