We get the latest analysis on what message that sends outside the campaign. Plus, here in California over the weekend the executive board for the state Democrats voted unanimously to approve a resolution calling for the elimination of superdelegates and to push up California's primary.

And finally, for a little comedic relief, we’re joined by comedian Grace Parra of the Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore for a preview of her talks at this weekend’s Comic-Con of Politics, Politicon. The live political festival with stars from all sides of the political spectrum is this Saturday and Sunday at the Pasadena Convention Center. You can find more information on the event here.

Guests:
