I'm sure somehow it's a big plot by the oligarchs to blunt Bernie's "momentum"

(3,335 posts)he barely eeked out 6, although a win is still a win. It's just that Bernie has become prone to exaggerations and it's nice when he gets brought down a notch or two, back to reality.
I'll be glad when our primary here is California is over. Plan on mischief by the Repubs since California's Democratic Primary might as well be an Open Primary. We have a category called NPP or No Party Preference, which means that as a NPP you can vote for any candidate regardless of Party. Although the Repugs choose to make their primary a Closed Primary, so no one can screw with theirs. If the DNC was rigged as Bernie claims, then California DNC would have made their primary closed as well, like the GOP did.

(10,565 posts)The longer he keeps getting donations that get funneled to the hated corporate media to buy airtime the better they like it. For ratings, they have tried to portray this as being close-it's been over for months. It's better for ratings to have what looks like a horserace.

(2,461 posts)I try to watch a smattering of all. If weighed equally, I think the blame on the DNC and a few radicals comes out for the DNC. But, as I said, depends on what you watch, and if you are more prone to believe authority versus make up your own mind with the best tools available.

(36,437 posts)Yes, the Hillary Camp launched a massive conspiracy to deflect from Bernie's massive 4 delegate net.
Good Lord.
