You Can Just see the Disgust oozing off of The Clinton Owned Surrogates and Pundints!

I love it, what a wonderful night! Trump clinches and they have to sit and watch Bernie rise, rise and rise in Indiana while he's speaking.

She'll either lose, in which case she won't have saved us from him, or she'll win, in which case he will have done his job.

I've been voting since '68, knocked on 6,000 of my own doors four years ago, and this is the most clever and diabolical establishment move I've seen.

Trump is the bogus "straight talker," a real businessman who'll get it done, immensely popular among "non p.c." fed-up people and promising change (the real agent of change is marginalized and ridiculed.)

Meanwhile Hillary, having marshaled the greatest apparatus of favor and influence in recent times, gets the mantle of level-headed competence and long experience, as well as being the first woman President. She saves us from Trump!

A lot of these primaries are cookie cutter. You can predict who will win in advance. Same as the 19 states Dems have won the last 5 general election cycles

Lost 7 of 10 and it didn't matter. He lost 7 of 10 with a much smaller lead and won easily.

The obvious story tonight is that major party insiders were rejected in Indiana -- Cruz and Clinton lost.

Jeb Bush took "no" for an answer and quit. Cruz just packed it in therefore Hillary is the last insider standing... and she lost today.

Narrative and symbolism aside, the fact is the percentage of the remaining delegates that Sanders needs *increased* tonight.

Anytime the smarmy pundits' heads are exploding is a great election night.

Indiana,

Here's to the remaining states doing the same!
