One thing we learnt yet again on Saturday night is President Obama is a funny guy-much funnier than Larry Wilmore in my opinion. Wilmore tries too hard.

But here is the truth: a lot of us are feeling the Hil and even willing to climb up a Hil for her. I'd gladly push a rock up the Hil for her. Meanwhile the Bern may be flickering out just a little:
"Hillary Clinton outraised Bernie Sanders in the month of April, according to fundraising figures reported Monday by the Democratic front-runner's campaign."
"Clinton's campaign took in a total of $36 million in April, of which $9.5 million went to the Hillary Victory Fund, a joint fundraising operation between the campaign, the Democratic National Committee, and state parties. Of that total, $26.4 million of the $36 million went to the Clinton campaign itself, which enters May with $30 million on hand."
"By comparison, Sanders' team on Sunday reported raising $25.8 million in April, a steep drop from its $44 million total in March."
"Thanks to 1.2 million people across the country we have the resources we need to continue to run a winning primary campaign while preparing for the general election," Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook said in a statement. "Hillary Clinton has always made it a priority to help Democrats up and down the ballot which is why we are proud to be helping to fund the coordinated campaign that will make up the heart of the Democratic organizing efforts for local, state and federal candidates this fall."
"The April total marks the first time in 2016 that Clinton's campaign has outraised Sanders', and it comes at a moment when the Vermont senator's campaign is asserting that it will take the Democratic nomination fight all the way to the convention despite trailing significantly in the overall delegate count."
"Sanders called a press conference Sunday in Washington in which he appealed to superdelegates supporting Clinton in states that he has won to switch their support over to him."

I thought he had admitted that without the votes and pledged delegates he can't flip the SDs? Maybe he's trying to turn the funding tap back on.
Even though he outgained Hillary the first three months this year, he was Berning the money faster than he raised it. Her cash on hand was better after each month-he often spent more than he raised in the futile attempt to win the nomination via tv and Internet ads.
So Bernie is feeling just a little bit Bernt.
Obama did make a joke that Bernie's slogan-'Feel the Bern' is more catchy than Hillary's-'Up the Hil.'
Hillary is a good sport though:
