breathless as he announced it. With a casual mention of the Superdelegates, as if they have already been awarded.

Until then, they don't. Several have already stated they will go with the will of the people, even though they have endorsed their preferred candidate.

As a Bernie supporter, I don't have issue with an SD giving an endorsement, that's different than putting their SD Vote in the cement for a candidate, IMHO. The media and the Clinton camp really should to back off on that narrative if they want to keep the party together, because they are causing a significant rift that will be difficult, if not impossible, to repair.

Voters in Michigan know that candidates aligned with corporate power don't give a damn about what ordinary people need.

Every state he has won has less than 10% black population so far.

Demographically, it's a very good state for him

Not insurmountable, but getting harder with each contest he doesn't win.

I just went there, and with 96% of the votes counted, Hillary's delegate count went up from 31 to 35 in LA since the last time I checked.
