(2,565 posts)She's down to 54% support in NY and falling fast.
Anything over 40% in NY is just bonus candy for Sanders, especially after his higher than expected showing in WA, HI and AK.

(2,565 posts)Wonder what happens to Clinton's New York lead if she loses Wisconsin next week AND gets outraised by nearly double AGAIN this month?
Will her SuperPac step in to try and save NY for her?
DCBob
(24,689 posts)Then she will have an even bigger day a few days later when MD and PA vote. The math will then become more obvious even to those who are "math challenged".

(2,565 posts)She'll be VERY lucky if she clings to NY.
Stick a fork in her.. she's done and gone.

(2,565 posts)It's a done deal.
Clinton winning in PA and MD?
That's some funny dreaming.
But, hey, carry on with the fantasy she will be president some day.
Everyone knows she has no chance.

(68,868 posts)looking at a 16-18% race right now.
Note that even a 10% loss would break the back of the Sanders campaign.

(5,751 posts)Hillary will be lucky to break even with the Bernmeister. The delegates should be a wash. And please save your super delegate bullshit. Bernie has a plan - it's being executed flawlessly, and Hillary is DOOMED!
StevieM
(10,500 posts)she will win by about 15 points. That won't be a wash in terms of delegates.
In any event, Bernie needs more than a wash. He needs to win big everywhere. And he only has one caucus state left. Don't kid yourself into believing he would have gotten anywhere close to the margins he got out west if they hadn't been caucuses.
Hillary will be lucky to break even in NY? You're describing a situation where we have supposedly entered an era where Bernie is destroying her. He has won very few primaries so far, just caucuses. He may win Wisconsin, but I doubt he hits double digits or picks up a significant number of delegates. I would be shocked if Sanders wins Wisconsin by the same margin that Clinton wins NY.
But there are two weeks between the primaries, with a caucus in Wyoming in between, so I suspect Sanders supporters will enjoy proclaiming their imminent victories during that stretch.
I don't expect that Sanders will win NJ, PA or CA either. The SDs are his only shot, and they are overwhelmingly for Clinton.
