I skipped voting in the Florida Primary
Because I was totally fine with either dem candidate. I am passionate though about a repub NOT winning the general because of the Supreme Court. One vacancy now and two more likely vacancies by liberal justices during the next presidency. A repub will make the court 7 -2 conservative. Adios Roe v Wade and that's just the tip of the iceberg.
So for those that say that dem turnout is low just wait and see what happens in the general. There are many like me just waiting for the chance to vote against the repub; even more if Trump is that repub. I do expect Bernie to be out there with Obama campaigning for Hillary just like Hillary would have done had Bernie won.

Yes, it's tough math but, but It can be done.
Bernie can still win the nomination. He just needs to win all the rest by 72%.

To win the nomination Sanders need to win ALL the remaining states by 72%.
Clinton will win Illinois and Sanders will win Missouri.

to win over all the Bernie supporters.

On a serious note, a repub president in '16 could create a 7 - 2 conservative supreme court. Roe v Wade would be overturned real fast. Scalia's seat is open and two liberal justices will be in their 80's.
Once Hillary wins the nomination all she has to do is legalize pot...

He won't win the dem nomination but he has done a great job of pulling Hillary left and focusing her on income inequality that will have to be a priority for her throughout her presidency. He will have a spotlight at the convention too. Good job Bernie.

Tuesdays Massachusetts Democratic primary revealed something surprising about Bernie Sanders: The self-proclaimed democratic socialist lost like a Republican.
Town-by-town, the map of yesterdays contest looks like a Sanders blowout, a western sea of Bernie victories with a mid-sized archipelago left for Hillary Clinton. The trouble, for Sanders, is that most voters live on those Clinton-friendly eastern islands.
This Greater Boston vs. everywhere else breakdown resembles a general election more than a primary, with Sanders playing the part of a Republican candidate like Scott Brown. Exit polls reinforce the idea, showing that Sanders did well with the right wing of Democratic primary voters, including independents and moderates.
