Sanders Vows to Fight On with Only 46 Primary States Remaining

The Hillary Clinton victory celebrations are premature. This satire gives everyone some perspective. The Democratic presidential race is far from over.

Sanders Vows to Fight On with Only 46 Primary States Remaining

WASHINGTON (The Nil Admirari) - In a shocking move today, Democratic presidential candidate U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont doubled down on his decision to continue his campaign for the presidency after a crushing loss in South Carolina to his rival - former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Sanders baffled political experts by remaining in the Democratic presidential race even though there were only 46 primary states remaining.

Secretary Clinton's campaign was outraged by Sanders' refusal to suspend his campaign, and demanded Sanders listen to the will of the people in the four states that had already voted.

"I really think my plan to charge banks a few menial fines and tell them to 'cut it out' every once in a while will be far more effective than Bernie Sanders' plan to actually address serious lapses in financial regulation that place the American economy at risk of meltdown every day," explained Clinton.

An unidentified member of the press asked Secretary Clinton if her close relationships with her bankster friends constituted a conflict of interest when it came to the matter of regulating the financial sector.

"Not at all. My Wall Street friends have used the money of everyday Americans to invest in me, and it is not unreasonable for them to expect something back in return," replied Clinton.

It helped me gain a more rational and less emotional perspective on the race.

I love Bernie. South Carolina sucked. We knew it would suck. Time to move ahead.

In NH Hillary got clobbered and the SC Hillary winsbig 4 states and she wants it stopped
She has 58 actual delegates Bernie has 51 And she thinks it over...
And Hillary wants Sanders to quit..Well obviously Hillary is not prepared to take on Sanders in the other 46 States becasue she does not have the funding..
Bernie will get the funding when he asks.

Fact: If DWS would not have stopped the vote count auditing Bernie Sanders would have won Iowa. They (The State Democratic Party)audited 16 precincts and Sanders gained. there are 1664 precincts left but DWS stopped the count.

Hillary cannot go back to many of her contributors because they have maxed out...

her PACs cant help her now

What does Hillary Clinton have...She has a bunch of lying deceitful Right Wing advisers that go on the Corporate Networks and lies about Bernie Sanders and his proposals .She even has Congressman that have lied about Bernie Sanders and it backfired on them.
She has Bill Clinton that goes out there and Lies and he thinks its still the 1990s and no one remembers him and his racism.

So Hillary We are in this for the long hall

Gee, the way a lot of people are going around here you would think that it is the end of the world.
These primaries have just started, and as my old idol Yogi Berra said, "It ain't over till it's over!"

Hillary is a weak candidate. If she can't stand the heat, she should get out of he kitchen.
