Could happen.
Bernie could stop Hillary Tomorrow; she needs 3% of the vote, Bernie could get 98% and stop her cold
Could happen.

The election was rigged.
I have a lot of repub employees who were strong Romney supporters back in '12.
The day after the elections every single one of them told me the election was "rigged".
I just smiled thinking "whatever delusion you need to get through the day is fine."
Many Bernie supporters (including one of my own sons) remind me of those Romney voters after the election.

Billionaire businessman and Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban would "absolutely" be Hillary Clinton's running mate if asked, but with conditions.
"You joke that you would love to be Clinton's running mate, as long as you were allowed to throw bombs at Trump. If she really did come to you, would you listen?" NBC News' Chuck Todd asked Cuban in an interview set to air Sunday on "Meet the Press."
Cuban responded, "Absolutely. But the key would be that she'd have to go more to center."
"I like the fact that Senator Clinton has thought-out proposals. That's a good thing because at least we get to see exactly where she stands," Cuban said, adding that Bernie Sanders "has dragged her a little bit too far to the left.

I would love to see Cuban in this spot. He's richer and so much smarter than Trump.

Romney was ahead in every poll against Obama at this same point.
Anyone basing an argument on this early polling = garbage in - garbage out.
ALL POLLS ARE WORTHLESS THIS FAR OUT. ASK PRESIDENT ROMNEY

He just has to get more votes than Hillary. Oh wait, what's plan B again?
Bernie can win the nomination.

Back in '08 at about this time Obama's lead against Hillary in pledged delegates was SMALLER than Clinton's lead over Bernie now. Back in '08 Hillary went on to win the last 8 states. How did that work out for her?
Hillary now ONLY needs to win 22% of the remaining delegates. There are NO winner take all states on the dem side. Who actually thinks Hillary can't get that 22% when she has gotten at least that much in EVERY SINGLE state she has LOST?

Will he get a return for all that money or end up like Jeb just flushing those $$$'s down the toilet.
I just hate it when politicians try to buy elections.

Sanders has run a stunningly strong campaign fueled by passionate supporters. But raising $$ stating you have path to nomination is fraud.
