17. The only thing that matters is the pledged delegate count...
The rest is a bunch of spin.

The candidate with the most delegates at the end of this process--will secure the nomination.

If you've been paying attention at all--the Supers have clearly indicated that they will not
usurp the will of the people--and break with the candidate who has fewer pledged delegates.

Hillary Clinton makes the case that they will, but that is not a reality-based opinion.

If Clinton hangs in there--and takes each remaining state by 67 percent, and convinces a majority
of the SD's to break with her---she's got the nomination. That's the only way she can win.

Is it possible? Yes. Is it likely? No.
