But this is the Deep South and most Democrats are AA so thay probably explains the complete lack of suppprt for, or even passing interest in, the Sanders campaign. Texas sure is going to send a lot of Hillary delegates to the convention. I would love to be one.
The vote split between Sanders and Clinton
will be a mirror image of the split of support for the two on DU

2016 General Election Prediction
Clinton (or another Democrat, but probably Clinton) will win in the biggest landslide since LBJ in 1964.

Professional Left throws Bernie under bus
Stunned at how fast that was. But knew it was coming.

'White liberals have the luxury of nominating a socialist
because getting a Republican Attorney general won't impact their lives the way it will minorities."
That was the concensus of my AA inlaws (large get to gathering weekend). They point to how Holder cleared out the Ferguson PD, voter suppression lawsuits against states like Texas, spotlighting unequal disciplining of minority kids in schools and a number of other things that they fear would come to screaching halts if the next Attorney General is a Republican.
While a completely anecdotal story it was pretty good focus group of definite Democratic primary voters and it wouldn't surprise me one bit if that sentiment isn't part of Bernie's inability to make inroads with traditional Democratic constituencies.
Sanders is giving a hell of a speech on CNN right now.
Im still for Clinton. But this is good stuff.
Any of the Democratic candidates could beat any of the pukes.
Their best shot would be Bush or Kashich vs Sanders. Our best shot is HRC vs Trump. But regardless, I see Dem victory.
Why the Sanders Fail?
I am shocked Sanders is as poorly as he is in Iowa. I figured he would win there and New H, then get blown out of the water on Super Tuesday by African Americans and Latinos. But I dont think he will win either of those first states based on Clinton's overwhelming lead.
So what happened?
