6. There are still 135 uncommitted. If 35 of those go HRC, she'll reach 2,383 before all votes cast

8. Appears this new Bernie Campaign tactic is counterproductive.

who could have guessed that this was all wrong? Let me answer.

Bernie supporters could never have guessed that attacking DNC, Hillary supporters, people brave enough to critisize Bernie, all the vocal Hillary endorsers, and SD's was the wrong campaign tactic, even though the Clinton Supporters have been saying this will be the fall out, for some time. It all started going down hill (actually it all escalated, since it was going down hill before) when SD phone numbers were published.

13. I just mean the pledged delegates are literally "pledged" by party rules

And the unpledged delegates aren't. Honestly I wish the supers had never been part of the conversation, and just stuck to their smoke filled rooms. (And for that matter I'm kind of a fan of smoke filled rooms, particularly after this season.)

19. But for a SD to change, thet means they'd have to go back on their word.

Aren't dishonest politicians one of the Berniestas bugaboos?
