The Head Of SC Democratic Party Was Just On MSNBC...

I don't watch them anymore, but my husband turn the channel on while I'm cooking. Can't remember his name, but he said it's the black women that needs to be where Sanders needs to focus. Said Sander stole his "executive something" who decided to support Sanders.

Asked about Clyburn he said he's very powerful and thinks he's going to endorse, was being very coy about who... but I got a real vibe that he will endorse Sanders. This will be Huuuuuggggge!

If anyone saw it, please correct my info. I was cooking and just poked my head into living room because it was sounding so positive for Bernie. Said Bernie had a GOOD ground game going.

Please advise.

Heard earlier on msnbc that Clyburn will most likely endorse Clinton. The congressional black causcus will endorse Clinton tomorrow.

He said that in some interview I heard.

But now...

After pledging to stay neutral, Jim Clyburn weighs endorsing Clinton for president

4. I Don't Think He Gave Away Any Info about Clyburn's Forthcoming Endorsements

He just said either of the candidates would find it to be a "big one."

Personally, I think he meant Clinton (meaning she would be the recipient), but who knows.



As a Bernie supporter, I don't want to count any chicks until they've hatched, so to speak.

Let's hope though that the mojo keeps moving Bernie's way though, as you suggest.

And, why would he comment like that. Smart money assumes IT WILL be Hillary, so just hearing him talk like that seemed to send "some" message. Maybe I'm still on a high from last night.

Bernie's IS attracting POC vote and I watch FSTV & RT and many of the POC are saying she's not very popular and they're sure they trust her. So, was just wondering. Still he IS in Congress and I SEE what they're doing en masse! Sickens me. People I once thought who were more liberal and who I felt stood with us have simply ROLLED OVER for Hillary. Boxer, Pelosi, Barney Frank and many more. It's NOW very clear how much THEY weren't there for us at all.

Didn't fight for us "we the people" but THEY'LL sure lay down and let themselves be stomped on with spiked heels! I've had it with this Party!!!

6. I read Clyburn is deciding on whether to endorse Clinton. He won't endorse Sanders.

Since he was on tv talking about getting stuff for things he's concerned about, I'd say it's a given that he'll endorse Hillary.
