Jeff Weaver is sounding like an idiot on MSNBC, either he's really hurt by this loss or he's stupid

He's not getting into the specifics of the math on any of the questions Kornake(sp), still talking about peeling off super delegates... like an idiot.

These guys are the used car salesmen... no doubt

...those who believe in Math and had been waiting. Then of course there is another sweep for Sec. Clinton coming right up, too, just in case they decided to hold off a little longer.
Not such a long way to go unless you are referring to the mindset of some Bernie supporters.

Send Bernie more of their $$$$$. The Bern spent twice as much money as Hillary in NYS and failed miserably.

Jeff Weaver needs a whole lot more of your money Bernie Bros so, dig down deep and send it in!

IMHO, Weaver and Devine are not top-flight campaign professionals, and, again in my opinion, have not served Sanders well. Especially not lately.
As you noted, of late Weaver has been downright bizarre.
I think that their recent turn to negative campaigning (from what I've read - which could be wrong- this strategic move was apparently encouraged by Weaver and Jane Sanders) and exaggeration (see: Vatican-gate) has not done the Sanders campaign a lot of good.

Exactly, the same way Karl Rove was when it started to look Mitt would not win. Remember how he asked the Fox news analysts to recheck it, then had one of the anchors go backstage, etc.. He just could not adjust to reality.
