If Clinton Is So Sure She Will Win, Why Does She Need To Mislead Us About The Popular Vote?

57. Not true...Bernie was lucky and he was treated more than fairly.

First, let's imagine that the "order" of Primaries were reversed. Hillary would have stomped Bernie early in California and NJ and been so far ahead he would never catch up. Having white, rural, Northern states with caucuses first allowed Bernie to get a name. Bernie caught all the breaks.

Second, the DNC could easily of refused to even accept Bernie as a Democrat. Hillary treated Bernie nicely and never ran obvious attack ads against him. At most there were a very few PAC ads. He got away scot free.

Hillary ran a brilliant and experienced campaign. As someone on Progress radio was saying the morning: exactly what did the DNC do to Bernie? He got a lot more than the original 6 debates. He got access to data (and stole stuff that wasn't his), he used Democratic voters to raise money (and got in trouble with the FEC), and the DNC did not oppose him on ballots that required them to allow Bernie to run as a Democrat (even though he didn't raise money except for himself).

Bernie has acted like a petulant child.
