Jane Sanders on MSNBC sounding like an ignorant tool. Rdiculous!

Saying that Sander won 6 or 7 states in a row, some in a landslide, so then why does the media (she mentioned TNYT) say he doesn't have a chance to win?

She can't be this ignorant. After all she was a college professor, right? I'm sure she knows is not about delegates, not states, and "winning by a landslide" in places where there are more cows than people doesn't add much delegates.

Oh, she knows that... she know it very well.

So she's being deliberately disingenuous, lying trough her teeth.

The race is lost, so, why is she doing this? Could it be just to get more $$$$?

It doesn't have to be true. Bernie is tired, allow him to rest, is his health less important than telling his supporters it's over.

And Jeff Weaver! And Tad Devine! (well Tad we'll probably see in the future on someone else's campaign, but still...)

sense of being relevant and important. She'll probably publish a ghost written memoir in time for her husband's fans to buy it for each other for a holiday gift, and grift a couple of million bucks to retire on. As for her being a "college professor," as far as I can see her only credential for rising in academia to become a college president was being married to a well connected career politician.

"alternative" graduate degrees. I think the place went bankrupt, pretty much, and is hanging on by a thread. I doubt she ever had to defend a thesis. I would not encourage anyone to throw money at that joint.

Tad Devine certainly wants them to stay in--he's pulling millions out for the benefit of his firm every month. And he's the closest aide in the pile. It's basically Jane, Tad and Jeff telling Bernie what to do.

He's not getting good advice, IMO, but he'll figure it out eventually. The question is, will he figure it out before his reputation is irrevocably tarnished?

And in those last 17 primaries she has won 707 delegates to BS's 643,

She will also probably win all 5 primaries tonight!
