Hillary Clinton won the Nevada Caucus by more than 5%. But Fox News host Jeanine Pirro and contributor Tony Sayegh did their best to make viewers think the win was really a loss.

“Hillary Clinton edges out Bernie Sanders for a win in Nevada,” Pirro said, as the screen revealed that Clinton won 52.7% of the caucus vote to Sanders’ 47.3%. By my count, that’s 5.4%. Not a landslide but not exactly eking out, either.

To drive the point home, Pirro asked, “A month ago… Hillary Clinton is 25 points ahead. What happened in a month?”

Guest Mary Anne Marsh, a Democrat, said, “You have to claim that as a big win” for Clinton considering that Sanders had beaten her by more than 20 points in New Hampshire less than two weeks ago.

“Well, what happened in the last month?” Pirro pushed.

Republican Boris Epstein said, “She lost a lot of trust” but he also said the Nevada win will “give her strength” and that Clinton will “win big” in South Carolina and on Super Tuesday.

The third panelist, Tony Sayegh, was also a Republican, thereby making a “fair and balanced” group of three Republicans, including Pirro, to the one Democrat. Sayegh, also a Fox News contributor, said that because of the super delegate system, “Tonight, this big win still gave them both the same amount, virtually, of delegates out of Nevada, if you take out the rigged super-delegate system, right? So how big a win is it? It’s a big win in the respect that should she have lost, it would have been completely catastrophic for her.”

Sayegh continued, “Now that being said, Bernie Sanders is still winning the argument. He has dragged Hillary Clinton to this progressive, socialist left where that’s what she has to do in order to even eke out these small, little victories.”

Pirro piled on. “You’ve got a socialist who’s beating out one of the icons, who has had 30 years to figure out how to win, who’s got the experience of a husband who went through it and they’re still eking it out.”

Epstein joined the club: “Bernie Sanders isn’t winning. Hillary Clinton is losing, that’s the key.”

“You know how she won Nevada? She got Harry Reid to go in and get the culinary union guys to caucus,” Pirro added. “Bernie Sanders is bringing in people who never voted before. The energy and the wind, I agree, is behind him and not behind Hillary.”

Even Epstein had to disagree given that Sanders will probably lose a lot of upcoming primary contests. “Tough to say you have a lot of energy and wind behind you and the initiative when you’re losing state after state after state,” he said.

It all seemed to rub off on “Democratic strategist” Marsh. She noted that turnout on the Republican side “has gone up substantially. It’s down 30% on the Democratic side. …That’s something to look at going forward.”

I’m not arguing that Clinton doesn’t have problems nor that Bernie Sanders couldn't win the nomination but Clnton's win in Nevada was a real win.

Watch Pirro suggest otherwise below, on the February 20 Justice with Judge Jeanine.
