rough night: Last night, that window effectively closed, according to MSNBC. Sanders pulled out a win in Rhode Island, but he otherwise had a very rough night, losing each of the other four primaries, including double-digit defeats in the day two biggest contests: Maryland and Pennsylvania. To close the pledged-delegate gap against Hillary Clinton, the Vermont senator would effectively have to win each of the remaining contests by large margins, which seemed improbable. It not that Sanders wasn’t trying in these states. Recognizing the writing on the wall, Sanders’ aides conceded yesterday that the campaign will reassess its strategy going forward. The senator put his enormous financial resources to use and outspent Clinton in these states by a nearly two-to-one margin, but it wasn’t enough to prevent the Democratic frontrunner from expanding her overall lead.
