Lawrence O'D Seething, Near Tears That AP Called It For Hillary

Such a blatant, smug Sanders apologist.

He has been anti-Clinton forever. Now averring that Hillary won the nomination via "secret" interviews between AP and super delegates. Says it plays into Sanders' "rigged" narrative.

Asks what's the difference between this and calling an election at 3pm based on exit polls? Such a whiny non-sequitor from a Sanders cheerleader. Gene Robinson set him straight on that, or at least he tried.

So glad to see O'Ds ridiculous bubble burst.

I figured they'd wait until after tomorrow even though she reached 2384. Guess they aren't gonna appease the loser any more . He wore everyone's patience thin.
