(2,897 posts)I apologize for the 2008 reference and the Obama/Sanders parallel (ugh, I feel terrible. Sorry, President Obama).
He won Oregon by 18 points and still lost CA. Clinton has to put in work, but there aren't enough white independents that can flood the process and undo Sander's terrible numbers with non-white voters.

As far as the latest polls are concerned, Sanders needs to win by over 30%, in the remaining contests, and that just isn't going to happen
I had someone tell me that Sanders would win the hispanic vote by 50 points and take CA by 30 points. I can't wait until June 7th roles around and they're beyond crushed when that doesn't happen.

(879 posts)and I don't just mean because of the delegate math. Hillary, regardless of result, with California and New Jersey, will EASILY go over the threshold to be the nominee.
Everything will be about her being the presumptive nominee and about how Bernie chooses to leave it. Even if he wins California, which I don't think he will, he won't be able to enjoy it.
