2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumAwkward moment for the Sanders rally?

Sure, it's hyperbole, maybe serious, maybe tongue-in-cheek... but it rings true. We've seen this before in states like Texas and Florida where huge crowds at Sanders rallies fail to translate into huge support at the ballot box, especially in closed-primaries like New York's.
