And Bernie is no Obama. That's usually landslide territory when considering state results.

That should be landslide territory in New Jersey and a solid win in Maryland if true. Neither seem to be borne out.

The MD primary is not until April 26, although early voting begins on April 14. http://www.elections.state.md.us/elections/2016/index.html

We haven't even really begun phone-banking for Hillary here yet. We MD Hillary volunteers are calling voters in Super Tuesday states right now.

I'm sure he'll explain it by saying he'll tax Wall Street speculation.

has Hillary at 1:8 (88% chance of a win) and Bernie at 5:1 (16%) if you use the flat percentages.

If that Texas margin held, she would likely gain enough delegates from that state alone to virtually erase any delegates that Bernie would get IF he won Vermont, Colorado, Mass, Minnesota, and Oklahoma, considering how close most of those will be and how few delegates Vermont has. Thats a big deal.

I think the writing on the wall is getting hard not to see except for the most zealous of Sanders supporters. The tone in the media is changing and less Sanders enthusiastic. After SC I am sure it will be even more so.
Your offered "perspective" makes me even more relaxed. Things have been tense ever since last summer.
Time to visit Hawaii to relax.
