It's completely stupid and unsourced, but I immediately thought Hillary put the hit on Bernie. And not in a traditional way, where she made a call. But, where her stans kept flipping the switch and waited for a desperate campaign to be tempted.
It's stupid because if you look at the numbers, Hillary doesn't need help ('You trying to help Ike?'). And Bernie was foolish to admit, at least in the beginning, he wasn't doing polling. So, he's desperate, not fully committed to the process (I mean, a politician should understand the importance of polling) and they saw an apple. It does seem like an overreaction but I see him as a wounded dog. And I blame the IT company more.
But, if you've seen enough terrible shit in this country, entertaining conspiracy theories happens a few times a week, even if you dismiss them.
