Bernie Sanders Could Still Win the Democratic Nomination — No, Seriously

"After Clinton’s Indiana loss, John King had told CNN viewers that “if Sanders were to win nine out of ten of the remaining contests, there’s no doubt that some of the super-delegates would panic. There’s no doubt some of them would switch to Sanders. What he has to do is win the bulk of the remaining contests. Would that send jitters, if not panic, through the Democratic Party? Yes. Yes it would.”


So what gives? Isn’t this thing over?


Almost, but not quite."

John King's assessment is valid. He doesn't have to win enough delegates to put him over 2026. Winning 9 (or even 8) of the next 10 would indeed shake up the superdelegates currently endorsing Hillary.

Okay.
My Christmas list is off and running.
Does it buzz or light up when you push it.

I needed some ink that I could find nowhere else. It was by the register oh three weeks ago. I try to avoid Staples due to them trying to put the USPS out of business.

if the tables were reversed, would you Hillary supporters want her to concede or keep fighting? I applaud Bernie for keeping on.
