New York's Primary is April 19 and several others in the NE a week later

If Hillary Clinton wins NY, PA and CT, which seems likely, the wailing and gnashing of teeth is going to be horrendous, it seems to me. Maybe I'll go on a vacation to someplace with no internet access. Either that or ask my MD about increasing the dosage of my blood pressure medicine. Or something. I don't know.

4. I see. Well, you'd know the schedule, I suppose.

Cool story...

[NuclearDem]

10. When's your next article out, Mr. Goodman?

[NuclearDem]

16. One could be forgiven for making that mistake.

2. The arrogance of Hillary Supporters is blinding them. Which is good for another Michigan Upset nt

5. I like my peanuts boiled,

but a guy can't get boiled peanuts here in Minnesota.

[virtualobserver]

9. what is the attraction to boiled vs roasted?

[MineralMan]

10. Boiled peanuts are a vegetable.

Goober peas. You won't find them anywhere but in Georgia and some other southern states. There, you'll see signs at every highway exit for someone selling them. They's good!



Yum, Yum....Get You Some!

3. If Hillary Clinton LOSES NY, PA and CT, heads will explode around here.

[MineralMan]

6. Well, that could be true, too.

Either way, things are going to get excited following those primaries in the Northeast, for sure.

7. even if Bernie doesn't win those, he'll still come close and get near half the delegates

No worries

[NuclearDem]

15. Yeah, good luck with that.

New York and Pennsylvania are closed primaries, where Sanders has done disastrously, and good luck selling the PLCAA to Connecticut.

[virtualobserver]

18. Bernie is from Brooklyn....Hillary won't be Annie Oakley this time......

but point taken on Connecticut.

[NuclearDem]

19. Sanders was born in Brooklyn, but Clinton was New York's senator.

It's why she leads by high double digits.

[virtualobserver]

21. so far.....but Bernie has closed gaps before...so we will see.

He has a lot of time to focus on NY.

[think]

8. She should take Robert Kagan out on the campaign trail to vouch for her foreign policy credentials

That would make the nomination a lock!

17. I don't know about CT.

I'd expect Clinton to do better in DE than in CT.

MD (as in Maryland), NY and PA will likely give Clinton an even bigger delegate lead than she had before March 26th.

[geek tragedy]

20. eh, if Clinton wins NY, PA, CT, and MD then the race is really, truly over

and Sanders will have to admit he has no path to the nomination, and his supporters will realize that.

But, those votes haven't happened yet, and won't be complete for another month, so we'll see--Sanders will win Wisconsin in a blowout so Sanders supporters will be feeling very good up until 4/18 for sure.

[MineralMan]

22. I'm not sure about Wisconsin.

I think it will be close and pretty much divide up its delegates pretty evenly, really. Wisconsin's hard to predict, though. Clinton's leading 50 to 44 in the latest poll, though.

23. Obama beat her 58-40 in 2008, I don't see any reason why she'd do better this time around

58-40 is also where Nate Silver pegs this contest based on demographics.

Clinton victory there would be a major upset and would have major implications for the rest of the race.

[MineralMan]

24. As I said, I don't know.

I live in Minnesota, and figuring out Wisconsin isn't something I try to do. We'll find out soon, though.

[geek tragedy]

25. Only things I understand about Wisconsin are the beer, cheese and Packers nt

[bravenak]

26. Yep
