Shaheen: "Within single digits is a win here"

[SheenaR]

"You talked about Gene McCarthy and how he did better than how anyone thought he would and that was a win even though LBJ won"

After interview
Brian Williams- "When did a win stop being a win?"


Really effing surprised. Since we were told all week what a win ACTUALLY is. To be honest, I'm not surprised.

1. Who said 'the people' get to define a win?

[SheenaR]

2. Every Clinton supporter since Monday n/t

[HereSince1628]

6. I suppose that's also true for the definition of progressive.

3. So ~0.2% isn't a virtual tie but a 9.99% loss is a win?

I am losing track of the double standards the Clinton campaign employees to try and justify her candidacy.

[Cheese Sandwich]

4. Jean Shaheen is going against her own NH Dem voters by backing the wrong candidate

She shouldn't be surprised if she sees a primary challenge in the future.

5. Hold. The. Phone.

So what The hell. So, Sanders "loses" Iowa by 3 tenths of a delegate but Clinton "wins" New Hampshire with anything that puts her just single digits behind????

Must be nice to have it both ways....like being a moderate and a progressive.

14. yes, you got it exactly! nt

7. Within 10 in white-liberal NH would be a huge win. It's a big stretch, but if Hillary

could pull that off, it would be remarkable.

[Joe the Revelator]

8. Those damned white liberals. At it again. With their skin tone.

and their whiteness.

[DanTex]

15. White liberals like me?

[Joe the Revelator]

16. I have no idea what you are Dan. Unlike some here, I'm really not into having a 'them' and 'us'

campaign.

[DanTex]

17. Well, now you know. I'm a white liberal. I'm glad that, unlike many Bernie fans, you're not

into having a "them" and "us." We're all Dems, let's focus on the objective, which is to put a Dem in the White House.

[Joe the Revelator]

18. Cool. I'm going to support the actual progressive until July. nt

[SheenaR]

12. Oh Dan

Your words about the 0.2% victory

Obviously no self-respecting Bernie fan will take this loss without making a bunch of excuses. But at the end of the day, Hillary won.

Can't have it both ways chief.

13. Demographic reality, ignore it at your on risk.

[Punkingal]

9. That's their new story line...f*&^%%$g Tweety just said it, too.
