1. Excellent! As well he should!

2. someone just asked if I was sad LOL, will repost my answer

When the entire political establishment and main media supports your opponent, you've been in the national spotlight for a year against a former Secretary of State and First Lady, in a state where she was Senator for 8 years and lives, and you only lose by just over 15%, and in a closed Primary, I think that is pretty great! (Did even better than Barack Obama by a over dozen delegates too...)

4. Don't forget the shenanigans as well. Just another dubious win by her, and actually

it should be embarrassing to her.

[tomm2thumbs]

9. true, I guess the primary will forever have an 'asterisk' by it after that

wasn't thinking along those lines

[elleng]

5. GOOD perspective, tomm!

[tomm2thumbs]

8. must've rubbed off from you, yay!!

[elleng]

11. :hi:

[greymouse]

6. you forgot he was also up against

bogus removing voters from the rolls in Bernie areas.

[antigop]

17. and don't forget how late the debates started. nt

[JDPriestly]

3. Weaver has worked with Sanders for a long time.

He does not shy from conflict or a fight.

[pdsimdars]

12. And I am so glad he doesn't shy away from a fight.

Come one FBI, strike a blow for all that's good!

[Surya Gayatri]

7. ...Failure to recognize reality.

[elleng]

15. More like refusal to knuckle under to status quo of tptb,

working for a sustainable future.

[That Guy 888]

19. yawn

Intruding: put oneself deliberately into a place or situation where one is unwelcome or uninvited.

Sorry, looks like there will be no coronation, votes will be counted right up to the convention. Democracy can be so inconvenient that way.

[nikto]

21. Yes----Just like some folks are deluded into thinking Hillary has integrity

If you are not wealthy,
she will not be your president.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

23. Oh she has integrity.

But, she out it into a safety deposit box, and she
Forgot which bank
Forgot which bank branch
Forgot where she put her key

But no worries. She hasn't had any need for it this year.

[RoccoR5955]

24. The only ones who are not seeing reality

are the Clinton supporters.
Sanders beats ALL RepubliCONs in the general election, and beats those that Clinton beats by a wider margin. Clinton is not liked by independents, and they will be key in winning the election.

10. Great to hear! n/t.

[merrily]

13. Good! I have not been donating for him to quit. Off to donate a few hundred "right fscking now."

Tried to donate the day before the NY primary, but never received a confirming email. So, I will donate today.

[pdsimdars]

14. And it was good to get a chance to see Weaver. Seems very intelligent and unmoveable.

[elleng]

16. I agree,

especially after seeing 'asparagus' being cast at him hours ago.

[Craig234]

18. Feeling better

I feel better reading this thread. Didn't know he did better than Obama in NY.

I have mixed feelings about the superdelegate issue.

I don't like the system, as it's anti-democracy.

But Hillary is more than happy to use any rule she can twist for her benefit, and I've been wanting Bernie to use some of the rules to his benefit also. I'd be furious if the super-delegates swung the election to Hillary after he won pledge delegates, but...

[merrily]

27. He did much better than Obama in Massachusetts.

Contrary to some of DU's empty barrels, I do understand Massachusetts has far fewer delegates than NY, but doing better than Obama when Obama had media and so many Party PTB on his side is not meaningless, either.

[OhZone]

20. He's definitely winning -

the state of denial.

[Bad Dog]

22. He always said he would.

It's still mathematically possible, although highly unlikely, for him to secure the nomination.

[MrMickeysMom]

25. When she signed that Panama Trade agreement allowing that shit to expand.. plus, media black-out...

... he still did well - just not as well as we'd have liked it in NY.

Meanwhile, she's taken money from the very fascist who are sticking it to the working class. How do you like the corporate media's black-out of that?

Take a look at the population spread of where that money is concentrated in the NY map, add the media black out of her transcripts and the biggest news that should be fit to see and hear revealing more American and Clinton connections to the Panama papers, and he still was approaching the 45% which I believe we would have seen, had there not been the purging of voters who tried to register IN TIME as Democrats.

Add to that, all the disenfranchised voters who had to go to provisional ballots in NY, which will still be decided, and he may approach the 45% which was the goal.

Either way, it is not a mathematical improbability that Sanders will not win, and therefore, I am not surprised that the continued fight all the way to the convention is news. I slept well last night.

I'm gearing up for my own state of PA, where I'll be one of the many hubs to GOTV. We'll roll our sleeves up and get to the voters with a clear conscience of what is stake for the American people, in spite of the ridiculous yammering of all those robotic people with blinders on. They do not want to hear about Clinton's connection with what no longer works for this country. They don't mind taking a dump on whoever's left to deal with climate change or massive wealth drain to the top 1/10th of 1%.

Undaunted.... and determined that the vast majority, as seen rushing to join this campaign is with Bernie Sanders.

26. Just a flesh wound

[liberal N proud]

28. Lots of money to be raised

He has to cover that trip to Rome
