Bernie continues to fall behind...

[Sancho]

According to MSNBC, Hillary got 11 pledged delegates and 6 super delegates.

Bernie got 16 pledged delegates and 1 super delegate.

Bottom line - they both got 17 delegates.

Some sites (Realclear politics) show an additional super delegate - if so Hillary won WV 18 to 17.

Without the Archie Bunker-RW independents, Bernie would have lost WV. Hillary won with Democrats according to exit polls.

The pundits are having fun making it a horse race, but it's not one. Kentucky is next, and Hillary must think she has a chance to put Bernie away. She is campaigning and advertising in Kentucky. WV is 92% white. KY is 84% white. Hillary has a better chance there. Oregon is weird; 76% white but only 2% black - more Hispanic (12%) and Asian (6%) than many other states.

Demographics are proving to be a better predictor than anything else in the northern states so far. Polls seem to have worked in the Sun Belt. Oregon and Kentucky are both CLOSED primaries!! People have to register as Democrats to cross over.

Let the Blemmings continue to carry on in GDP. It's probably good to keep excitement on TV and GOTV. Hillary is ahead of Obama from 2008.

1. Yes!

I am starting to really, really HATE pundits.

2. Without having won by a large percentage Sanders lost ground and his need in percentage again grows.

The old statement "he can't win for losing", here is the results.

4. With each contest BS falls further and further in to political oblivion

5. Thank you for this, Sancho.. yes, Oregon

is closed for Dems only but I've read a bunch of Indies changed their reg to dems so that's why he could win Oregon.

We're gonna see..

6. It's gonna be like late March/early April all over again

That's when Sanders went on his 7-state winning streak, after Hillary won big on Super Tuesday (March 1) and Super Tuesday II (March 15), but then Hillary erased any gains he had made with her big wins on April 19 and April 26. Now, Sanders will have his little streak again in May, but then Hillary will come back with a vengeance on June 7 to erase any gains he may have made since then. We just have to bide our times and let them have their little (if hollow) victories.

7. I have really begun to despise that guy

He is in it for himself. For god's sake, Ted Cruz even bent to the will of the GOP math. Everyone knows that Bernie is now running a quixotic campaign and all he is doing is hurting his cause. He is extremely myopic, and/or narcissistic.

This final, sad, pathetic push by the non-Democrat in the race will seal his fate as a player in the party. I and many of the real Dems are sick of him and can't wait for him to go away.
