because it makes Hillary's wins and inevitable nomination all the more crushing. This happened before after Michigan and the Clinton 5 state blowout was devastating because they hyped themselves up so much over a 2% victory only brought about by a higher turnout of independents and a new found message on trade (that's miraculously disappeared in WA, a state that benefits from Trade and the ExIm Bank.) Watching Sanders campaign all the way to the competition, peddling the idea that he can win the remaining states in a convincing enough margin that people he has been dumping on for months will decide to line up behind the lily white Candidate is going to be hilariously satisfying.
