Bernie Sanders has flipped a grand total of zero superdelegates so far

By Chris Cillizza June 7

Here's a telling exchange between MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell and Jeff Weaver, manager of Bernie Sanders's campaign, on Tuesday afternoon:

Mitchell: "Have you flipped any superdelegates yet?

Weaver: "No."

The entirety of Sanders's remaining chances in this race — such as they are — rest on persuading large numbers of superdelegates to switch from supporting Hillary Clinton to supporting him. Without such a broad-scale switcheroo, Sanders loses. Because of math.

This is that math. Clinton has 1,812 pledged delegates and 572 superdelegates, according to NBC's calculations. Add it up and you get 2,383 — a simple majority of all available delegates. Hence, the race is over.

6. Huh, weird. They've been so kind to and reasonable with the SD's

8. Clinton also failed to flip any superdelegates. And she also appealed to polls

that suggested that she could do better in the general election than Obama. She did that even though Obama had already won the majority of the pledged delegates.

9. There are different rules for a women I guess. Since Clinton supporters have said this from start.

So Sanders being a Jewish man must bow out to Christian women for some reason.
