Reply #19: 260 electoral votes compared to 190 electoral votes

North Dakota, Wyoming, Wisconsin, Idaho, Alaska and probably Colorado will more than likely not be voting Dem in the General. California, New York, New Jersey, Arkansas, Pennsylvania, Arizona and Nevada are States we need in our column in order to get the necessary 270 in November (not counting the still up-in-the-air Florida and Michigan).

In short, one candidate has dropped the ball big-time in need-to-win situations and, with everything (oodles of money, overwhelming support, favorable Press) going for them, was unable to Close the Deal while the other one worked hard, picked up the slack and scored shocking knock-out punches when finances were running low, the Press was itching to write the Political Obituary and no one -- NO ONE -- thought it could be done.

In order to win in November, the Super-delegates will choose the one who HAS proved time and again they could win despite the odds when it really counted to head the ticket. Simple as that.
