2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumCongratulations to Secretary Clinton on her big win!
I'm one of her biggest critics and she's not my cup of tea by any means, in fact it's going to take a lot from her to get me out to the voting booth when she's nominated at the convention, but a WIN IS A WIN.
She has fought hard, most of her life even, for this moment. Regardless of the tactics that got her here, or whether or not you agree with her, we can all agree that she is A TOUGH FIGHTER and that this is a HISTORIC moment. She is the first woman presumptive nominee of a major political party, that is a BIG accomplishment.
Let her have this moment; she deserves it. Congratulations Secretary Clinton!

(1,238 posts)With the exception of DC which will go heavily in her favor there are no more contents left. Absent an indictment, she will be the nominee.

(32,861 posts)There is a reason it takes a specific number and NOT a majority. I know you people aren't big on democracy though. Your coronation will have to wait.
Edit to add: I can see why you people don't think you have to follow the rules when the woman you're voting for broke the rules endangering national security and other people's lives overseas.

Are they?

(1,238 posts)Even if Cali is 50-50, that's enough for her to win the majority of pledged delegates.
