As of Tuesday, he's lost, it's over, thanks for playing.

Now the voters of Vermont might want to take a look at those in terms of his Senate run. Just sayin'.

So from middle of March (15) to Saturday the totals are:

Clinton - 1002
Sanders - 935

After March 15 to Saturday the totals are:

Clinton - 563
Sanders- 608

From April to this past Saturday:

Clinton - 514
Sanders- 459

Look at that! Tad Devine is doing it again. He is cherry picking the data.

... none of this is going to matter anyway. It won't make a bit of difference in the outcome. Bernie and his current wife, Jane, know it!

They took a calculated risk after weighing the negatives of NOT releasing their returns and comparing them to the risk of ACTUALLY releasing the full returns. They made the decision, and it's obvious to me that they decided that releasing them was more damaging that delaying forever.

They've lost. They're not dumb, and they both know that at this late date, there is NO benefit in releasing the full and complete tax forms. In my opinion, they probably also think that it would damage his "rep" and "creds" if they did release them ... and if he was thinking of running for office again, it would be a liability.

....Personal Financial Disclosure with the FEC, the one for which he asked an extension until this week.

I'd be VERY interesting in whether or not his "net worth" has significantly jumped.

Tad will argue that that is the reason why they are NOT going to release them after all.

It's our fault.
