WaPo: Bernie Sanders: "The Clinton people are good spinners"
On the state of a race more broadly, in which he fought Clinton to a near-tie in the Iowa caucuses, won by 22 percentage points in the New Hampshire primary and lost by five points in the Nevada caucuses
There have been three races. One was a tie, I won one big, and I lost one by five points. That’s it. On Super Tuesday, we’re going to win some of them. How many? Who the hell knows? We’re going to win some of them, hopefully big, and we’re going to accumulate some delegates in others.
The Clinton people are good spinners, and a lot of the media people fall for it. Yeah, I see that. ‘She got five more delegates [in Nevada] than you, Bernie. It’s the end of the world. Is it not?’ As I’ve said, it is not. It is a state-by-state-by-state, long-term process.
