Jonathan Weisman's Twitter feed, something to bring us all together Hillary and Bernie supporters.

look at what has happened to Jonathan Weisman on his twitter feed. Apparently he wrote an op ed critical of Trump and his closed door policies.

Bad News for those hoping the Democratic party is hopelessly SHATTERED!!

[link:http://www.nytimes.com/2016/05/20/us/politics/donald-trump-hillary-clinton-poll.html?_r=0|
But never the less the party is LESS divided than it was in 2008.

Still, the Democratic resistance is less widespread than it was in the 2008 primary. While 72 percent of Mr. Sanders’s supporters say they would vote for Mrs. Clinton this fall, a Times/CBS News survey taken in early May 2008 found that only 60 percent of Mrs. Clinton’s supporters said they would vote for Barack Obama in the general election.

And I will say again that the only reason Sanders is doing better against Trump in the polls is that there has not been a single attack on him by the media or the right wing.... or Hillary for that matter. If anyone can link to an attack (and I don't mean some obscure radio talk show or end times website, I will take my statement back)

Here is the Real Math not the Bernie Math

The democratic candidate will need 2,026 PLEDGED delegates to win the nomination. Right now Hillary has 1,717. (I don't know if that includes yesterday's NV win). So she needs 309 more PLEDGED delegates. She is on target, actually she is 108% of target.

Bernie, on the other hand is only at 92% of target. He is way behind at 1,437 PLEDGED delegates. He still needs 589 PLEDGED delegates to win the nomination.

There are 897 delegates left but there aren't enough Bernie friendly state left for him to pick up those delegates. He is going to lose CA and NJ. He is presently losing OR which surprises me. He is going to lose PR. Look at the States and territories left and tell me which ones he wins by more than 35 percent.
Here is the link: http://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/election-2016/delegate-targets/

Explain to me how he gets 589 delegates out of those remaining states.

Now she may lose KY, but she will still get at least 25 delegates. .... you know what, I won't even bother. She will have him put away by CA and NJ where I live will just be icing on the cake.
I wouldn't be so happy about it except for the fact that bernie and his team have been such lying nasty characters for months now.... And I will never get this image out of my mind:

How dare this silly limousine liberal, spoiled hollywood brat confront a woman who put her life on the line to create a better life for thousands of migrant farm workers.
I support HRC for President, oh hell yes. She is the best candidate of my Life!

As far as what happened in NV yesterday. Those 64 people who were dismissed as delegates were dismissed because they either were not registered democrats or could not prove they lived in NV. Six Hillary delegates were dismissed for similar reasons. I do not think these rules are unreasonable.
Bernie's team should have vetted their people better and given them better instructions. Apparently so should have someone on team Hillary. This stuff happens.
As for the video, some bernie peep standing among other bernie peeps shot a video on his/her iphone and so the ayes did seem to take the voice vote, think about it........ had he/she done the same thing among Hillary peeps might the results have seemed different YEAARRRGGG!!!!!

Poll Question: If you want to be a delegate to the national Democratic Convention in Philadelphia Pa. should you be a registered Democrat?
