Hillary Clinton
Showing Original Post only (View all)Jaw-dropping expression of either delusion or a demented attempt at being sinister. [View all]
Has anyone else seen something like this?
In a harmless conversation about whether Sanders skipping over to California to campaign was a good idea, I had this exchange:
Me: If things go according to my personal projections that include Sanders winning two of the five primaries next week and cutting deep into HRC's leads in PA, MD, and CT; winning every May and June contest (all by at least 10% and some by 80/20 margins); then, he will need a 66/34 victory in California to beat HRC by 3 delegates.
A Bernie Fan: Evidently you don't understand the entire process leading to convention and the process at convention. There are no real numbers yet. At all.
Me: This is just a big illusion? All the campaigning, voting, debates, and lawsuits are a charade?
A Bernie Fan: Pretty much. As we have been saying. We will use every inch to claim victory so we can change it. Something Hillary won't do.
So, is this pure desperation or some bizzarro plan to turn the convention upside down?

One of the things missing in some of the projections, I think, is that he won't do as well
