(170 posts)Ok JUST looking at the delegate count, she'll win.
ALL she has to do is come in second for the rest of the primaries. 40% in each rave and she'll win.
NOW ... add in her small mountain of super delegates and there is almost no way for bernie to win delegate wise.
He's going to need a landslide in at least one super populace state like California if he's going to beat her at her own game.
In a real ironic twist, Hilary could win the nomination w/o winning the majority of physical votes!
and keep in mind Hartman is a H U G E fan of Bernie!
Personally I think it's a travesty of Shakespearean proportions. If the media had done it's job Bernie would already have it in the bag by now and the Dems could start pushing progressive and *gasp!* dare I suggest liberal senators.
Instead the BEST we're going to get is a Milquetoast congress with Hillary as the candidate (and yes I think it's unlikely she'll loose the general) and little change in the congressional math which means goodbye functional government!
