[Fla Dem]

[white_wolf]

9. And the country and the world loses. eom

[PowerToThePeople]

22. I agree with this assessment.

[RBInMaine]

28. Bernie is a good man. But he's also VAGUE, making promises he can't keep, and as a "socialist"

would not win the general election. And please don't talk about polls right now showing him doing so well in the GE. He hasn't been SMASHED TO PIECES by the right wing ONSLAUGHT of "SocialistCommunistTaxraiser" night and day yet.

Sorry, but Hillary is much more of a national candidate than Bernie.

[white_wolf]

38. That's your opinion.

Honestly, I don't think Sanders can win. But I also firmly belive that if he doesn't then we all better get used to saying the words President Donald Trump. Gods the thought makes sick.

[Orangepeel]

11. MSNBC

[Stallion]

15. Clinton is Your 2016 Democratic Nominee-It is OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

nm

[cosmicone]

17. CNN just called it for Hillary

[Bleacher Creature]

18. Ballgame. nt

[stevenleser]

19. No more characterization of her as a "Southern Regional Candidate"

It also shows that Michigan was a fluke.

[bigtree]

35. true and true

...a week of yammering about the impact of 'trade' on the Hillary vote.

Looks like black voters showed up in force, making the impact that many of us touted since the beginning of the campaign. All of the denial and defensiveness from the Sanders camp, and the defiance that Northern states would be different, has basically dismissed this important group of voters to their campaign's peril.

[Hortensis]

51. Dismissing whole groups of voters became

more than a little of a self Indulgence for some. Every voter and voting group should be respected and counted, and certainly not counted out ahead of time. You cannot be for democracy if you despise the people and processes of democracy.

[4lbs]

49. Yes. After Michigan, I was reading some articles where they interviewed Democratic voters in

Michigan afterwards.

It seems a sizable number of Clinton supporters believed the 20 point polling margins in Michigan, and actually decided to vote Republican to mess with the GOP tally.

When they found out what happened, they were in shock.

It appears then the Clinton team told all their people to tell their supporters they have to vote for Clinton, no matter what the polls say for their state.

[wyldwolf]

21. this will, quite possibly, seal the nomination.

[kstewart33]

23. Yes!

Hillary reigns.

[riversedge]

25. So much for Bernie hitting on Hillary for trade!!

[MoonRiver]

30. Yeah

[joshcryer]

26. Welp.

[PeaceNikki]

27. Boooya

[Hissyspit]

29. Well, if true, that sucks.

I've gotten to where I can't stand her, and I have defended her and admired her.

The Nancy Reagan comments, the death penalty comments, the defense of George W. Bush - and that's just the past week. Flawed candidate, and getting to seem to me to be just a sucky cynical person in general.

We had a real liberal progressive candidate and we may have thrown it away for the crappy patronizing Third Way centrist. I will defend her against the Republican nonsense if there is a Hillary Clinton administration, but won't be happy about it. Maybe she will surprise me. I doubt it. She sure as hell better beat the Republican in the general election.

Be happy all you want. It won't change the fact that this sucks.

[DCBob]

31. Yuuuuge!!

[bigtree]

32. k&r

[Persondem]

33. That is HUGE!!!!!!!!!! FL & NC were not surprising but OH for Clinton is

huge, baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also, so glad the Tar Heel State finally did some smart voting. It's been since 2008 since we had a happy election at the state or national level.

[Number23]

54. Freaking NY Times is letting me down again!!! They've had the same three wins for hours

http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2016/us/elections/primary-calendar-and-results.html?_r=0

Is there any other news? You say she might go 5 for 5!

[ucrdem]

but Bernie is leading in MO by 2 or 3%:

RACE WINNING 2ND RPTG
Ill. Clinton 52% Sanders 47% 53%

Mo. Sanders 51% Clinton 48% 53%

Helluva night isn't it!!

[Number23]

56. It's been a great, great day. And looks like she's picked up at least another 250 delegates

Very nice.

[ucrdem]

57. meanwhile Bernie goes after the Walton family in his concession speech in AZ . . .

but I'm gonna zip it cuz yeah it's a great night!

[SidDithers]

[elljay]

45. 4 years of a Republican President ahead

We either get the fascist version or the moderate version.

[lancer78]

46. The fatigue has started n/t

[MinnieBlum]

47. Michigan results vs. pollsters

I'm now guessing that the difference between the polls in Michigan and the vote tally may have been due to the fact Hillary supporters didn't bother to vote because the polls had her so far ahead - they thought their vote was superfluous.

[erlewyne]

48. Is that fat lady singing?

Hell no.

It ain't over til its over.

[sister_rosa_refried]

50. SHE CHEATED!!!!!

Just getting ahead of the curve, dear.

I'm sure that will happen soon.

[mac56]

52. Hilly?

[elmac]

53. This is by far the most interesting

and terrifying election in my history, first voted for Carter. The corporate news created the T-baggers, created Trump and their wall street banksters are reaping the rewards. FUBAR
