Clinton conceded on June 7th, 2 days after the last primary and following a meeting with Diane Feinstein and Barack Obama at which she was given things in return for conceding - Obama pay off her campaign debt, a prime time speech at the convention, platform planks, and the Sec of State position. They bought her off. She was a 20 X bigger asshole to Obama during the primaries than Sanders has been to her. Her price is just lower than Sanders. <br /><br />And by the way, it's intensely rude to start out an answer by saying "No." like you're talking to a dog instead of "I disagree." A bad habit and a sign of a narcissist.

They were extremely close in vote totals. As of today, Hillary is leading Bernie by almost 300 PD's. Kornacki also showed Weaver that the idea that Bernie swings all the SD's in the states he's won to him will not put him ahead of Hillary. She is almost 600 PD's & SD's ahead of him as of this writing. Bernie doesn't have a chance in hell of beating her! Polls are meaningless at this point no matter what Bernie says. How ironic that he's depending on polls to back him up when at the time of the NY primary, he called them worthless, saying he would win NY. #TheBernIsFinishedAKRNHSNCnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-70088733170596842582016-05-03T02:16:02.390-08:002016-05-03T02:16:02.390-08:00Another RWNJ pretending to be otherwise.
