(10,887 posts)Loses Mass 53-47
Wins one of these 3: Minnesota, Colorado, Oklahoma.
Gets crushed by 20 or more points in all 6 other states.
I'm a Bernie guy. But, it is what it is.
Nevada was painful and S.Carolina was crushing.
I've seen many Bernie people saying that he didn't reach out to black community enuf.
I don't think that's it.
I don't think the black community dislikes Bernie.
They just know Hillary more and prefer her.
And their massive vote in Carolina turned a possible long race into a much shorter one.

(99,714 posts)She entered the race as a prohibitive favorite and while prohibitive favorites don't always win their respective competitions they win enough of the time to make the term useful.
I also believe the term is more useful in sports than in politics because I have seen a lot more come out of nowhere upsets in the former than the latter.

(13,340 posts)Loses OK by 5+, and loses MA by less than 5 points (it'll be a squeaker there).
Will be behind by by 150+ delegates which will be a nearly insurmountable lead.
Funtatlaguy
(10,887 posts)the Sanders team would take these numbers that you suggest.
The real key is Mass....Bernie really really needs to win it. But, it's been trending away from him.
Adrahil
(13,340 posts)I think there is a good chance that Sanders loses by MORE than this.

Just goes to show, you can't trust internet polls.
