MSNBC is at it again
From today's MTP Daily:
Chuck Todd: "I think Bernie Sanders seems to be on board with the idea that he will go after Trump and lay off of Hillary Clinton. Do you buy that?"
Anna Greenberg, "Democratic Pollster": "I do. I think his speech sounded like a concession speech. He said this is about the movement, this is about the conversation, the big issues and he really didn't mention her at all. There was no contrast between him and Hillary Clinton, and I think this is going to be about pushing the people who give money to him to push this message, he still has a lot of money to spend."
Chuck Todd: "Mark, you could argue, we've said this before, he's already won. Hillary Clinton sounds more like Bernie Sanders today certainly than she did 6 months ago."
A bit later, from Anna Greenberg:
"I think Bernie Sanders can be very classy, and has been classy, for example in the debates. (with a smirk) Not all of his supporters have been classy."
Chuck Todd:
"Remember all the PUMAs, they rallied around Hillary then."
I felt like I was watching Pravda. I saw a portion of Bernie's speech last night and most of his speech today from Portland, Maine in which he was plenty critical of Hillary Clinton. There is no suggestion on his part whatsoever that he is conceding defeat. This is pure misinformation by MSNBC, Chuck Todd and a "pollster" who is clearly in Hillary's camp.
Anna Greenberg is a partner at Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research.

"Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research, a Democratic polling firm that worked on former President Bill Clinton's 1992 presidential campaign"
Stan Greenberg, who has a long time relationship to Bill Clinton and was his pollster in his 1992 campaign for President, is also a partner with the same firm. (Is he Anna Greenberg's father? I didn't find anything on that online.)
On Stan Greenberg, from his Wiki page:
<Greenberg's current and former corporate clients include British Petroleum, British Airways, Monsanto Company and General Motors.>
<In May 2010 Greenberg was linked to a controversy involving White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel. As a House member, Emanuel had lived for five years in a rent-free D.C. apartment jointly owned by Greenberg's wife, Democratic House member Rosa DeLauro of Connecticut, and Greenberg. During this time, Emanuel was chairman of a committee that awarded large polling contracts to Greenberg's firm.[2]
Following the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill, Greenberg's work for BP became controversial. Greenberg's firm has been called a "prime architect" of BP's effort to rebrand itself as a green petroleum company.[2] As early as 2002, critics had deemed that effort "greenwashing".[3]>

Last night, I watched the returns on the Guardian's website.
That makes me laugh. She won states that will NEVER fork over their Electoral College votes to a Democrat in the Fall.
Granted, Bernie did win Oklahoma, which is the same, but he's beaten her in in two Northeastern states, tied her in another, tied her (or lost by single digits) in two swing states, beaten her in a northern mid-west state and beaten her, solidly, in another mid-western swing state. He's beating or keeping up with her where it counts.
I got sucked back into watching MSNBC and CNN for Election News and Commentary after years of absence.
I should have known better!
