well there are those undemocratic caucuses he "wins"...hell even tourists are allowed to vote for msongs May 2016 #2
As opposed to closed primaries where new voters and independent voters are suppressed. (nt) w4rma May 2016 #44
Hillary has won all the open primaries but 4. n/t pnwmom May 2016 #60
Don't confuse them with facts n/t SFnomad May 2016 #86
Closed primaries do not suppress new voters ... and independent voters SFnomad May 2016 #61
Hillary has not secured the nomination. There are only 283 standard delegates separating them. CentralMass May 2016 #3
CA will clinch the nomination for Secretary Clinton, there is no stopping her now n/t SFnomad May 2016 #4
Only time will tell. CentralMass May 2016 #5
The first Tuesday in June will be a disappointing day for you n/t SFnomad May 2016 #23
Bernie would have to win 67% of the remaining delegates to enter the convention with CentralMass May 2016 #25
It's not going to happen ... you can take that to the bank n/t SFnomad May 2016 #27
The last state to vote. It will come down the the wire. morningfog May 2016 #55

No desperation here. morningfog May 2016 #106
Hillary is twice as far ahead as Obama was at this point. More than half of the delegates pnwmom May 2016 #62
Also worth pointing out that NY and FL had more voters than all the Sanders states combined oberliner May 2016 #6
There were about 100,000 suppressed placebo ballots that weren't counted in New York City. w4rma May 2016 #45
If all 100,000 of those were Sanders voters then Bernie still would've lost the state oberliner May 2016 #47
There were more, outside of the city, in the rest of the state. (nt) w4rma May 2016 #50
Wouldn't some percentage of them had been Hillary votes? oberliner May 2016 #54
Placebo ballots are cast by folks who were told that they weren't Democrats. w4rma May 2016 #58
Because the Board of Elections screwed up oberliner May 2016 #80

Poster, please. I know exactly what it means and you know I do. merrily May 2016 #16
No, I don't ... because what I'm doing is not "cherrypicking" and that's what you're accusing me of SFnomad May 2016 #17

30-40 year Democrats are the ones that vote ... the youngsters will not make any changes SFnomad May 2016 #39

Those who believe the fantasy of Bernie being nominated ... NurseJackie May 2016 #41
I expect them to become more bitter, more angry and more unhinged as reality finally settles in SFnomad May 2016 #42
The frantic pace and viciousness of the attacks, smears, and lies that SOME ... NurseJackie May 2016 #43
I separate them into two difference categories ... Sanders supporters ... and BS cheerleaders SFnomad May 2016 #48

I'm a littel confused. SheilaT May 2016 #77
I said no where that he should drop out. joshcryer May 2016 #78
Not only could Secretary Clinton lose, she could lose by large margins and still get the majority SFnomad May 2016 #79
I find the desperation of the Hillary supporters to be rather pathetic. SheilaT May 2016 #81
Thank you for clarifying that. DCBob May 2016 #51

Bragging about ONLY losing 11??? now that is funny! Nt Logical May 2016 #65
Obama lost more than that in 2008 .... didn't seem to hurt him any n/t SFnomad May 2016 #66
He was a total unknown and KICKED HILLS ASS! Not a good thing! Logical May 2016 #67

It's really sad watching how unhinged you people are becoming n/t SFnomad May 2016 #70
