Hillary Clinton WON Nevada. END OF STORY!

She won the caucuses by over five points and had more delegates at the convention. That's it. That's all. End of story. She WON. Nothing was "rigged." You can't "rig" mathematics.

Case CLOSED.

Remember that stampeding herd of casino workers rushing to the caucus room never stopping to register first before caucusing?

I do as do many others.

And if we go around the country, in over half the states she "won", we see some sort of shenanigans like this. I think everyone in the DNC should wear tweed coats in honor of their patron saint.

how poorly the procedures were handled. They never said Sanders should have won. The delegate count should have ended up 18 to 17, Clinton with 18 based on the rules laid out but what they ended up doing caused it to be 20 to 15 Clinton with 20.

It's acrid, and a bit tinged with a faintly gross, sort of clammy scent. It's caused by the dried cold sweat of fear barely suppressed, the kind of encroaching fear that you know is nearly existential in nature, deserved, and unavoidable.

The reptilian brain, shut down to mere fear, can only repeat small mantras that make sense to the short-input survival mechanism. CASE. CLOSED! STORY. OVER!

I can imagine it's uncomfortable. I just can't imagine feeling sympathy for it.
