Allow him to think hard about whether to continue the campaign.

Obviously he didn't want to talk to them, and that avoidance mattered more to him than the horrible slight he gave to a group of people he counts on to promote his campaign narrative. I guess he didn't want them to witness his dark mood. Hard to keep a positive spin in the chatter on board when you are throwing things.

9. Take a look at the latest fundraising email. It doesn't even make sense!

I just have a snip of it from a reporter's tweet-



It's almost fraudulent. "We win a lot more delegates in NY than in any state"??? So? She still gets more! And she extends her lead. It's creepy.

Did you watch Hillary's speech? Afterward, because Andrea Mitchell was on site she had to realize that she wasn't going to say bad things about Hillary. She looked truly ashen and upset. I think there were a few statements in Hillary's speech that made Andrea queasy.

in her speech, making statements about how Wall St rips us off and was pretty seriously making the Democratic case, Andrea seems to be a repug and she just loathes Hillary. I have seen her a few times in the past couple weeks where she, much like Maura Liasson (Fux/NPR), can't disguise their contempt for Hillary and most Democrats. They may be reporters but they are not unbiased.

She really did look crushed. She participated in a round table chat about the election with other MSNBC anchors and she sort of perked up but it was obvious, especially when trying to argue with Joy Reid and Lawrence O'Donnell, that she wanted Hillary to lose. I was kind of enjoying that aspect of the moment a little more than I should, perhaps.






NAW, to heck with Andrea Mitchell! Hooray for Hillary!

Sounds like TYT heads are exploding over the election results. They have been supplying negative talking points against Hillary for a while now, it will bite them in the butt.

Good grief!
Hillary's big win tonight just cemented those superdelegate's feet to the floor supporting her. Sanders has no argument to give--only trouble.
Congratulations to Hillary and to us, too! Woo-hoo!
Aloha Cha!
