who know full well that they are not able to vote in primaries. They know that because they freely CHOOSE that. They are told when they register that they will not be able to vote in the primaries if they are Independents, and then they go ahead and register as Independents.

Know how I know that? I WAS a NY Independent for more years than I've been a Dem. And when I wanted to change to a Democrat I didn't have a tantrum about how hard it was. I looked it up and did it. Not a big deal.

Oh and nice slam of Bernie supporters as if they don't work.
I think that was uncalled for.
Why do that because if your candidate wins you'll need as many votes as she can get.

Yeah...both sides slam each other's supporters on personal levels and that is wrong.

far more competitive than I initially thought it would be (Hell, I was originally a Dennis Kucinich supporter before I jumped on the Obama Train) - so to see it as close as it can only push excitement further.

Hence why Clinton lost to Obama, but is beating Sanders. And an 8 point loss when Sanders needs 8 point wins, plus another state out of play, makes this really bad for Sanders, provided this exit poll is accurate.

Clinging to a familiar but failing political economy is easier than taking the bold steps needed to make a real and lasting change.

I still don't know what I'm going to do in November.
