Looks like the presumptive nominee lost another one last night, and Kentucky probably won't be official for a while.
If she doesn't get indicted or has a convenient health crisis, she'll probably establish another political first: first presidential candidate to lose many more elections than she's ever won.

Even though its a done deal for the Hag, she's looking worn out and more sickly everyday. The Hag may not get the distance.......

This morning Fox used horse racing as a way to mention the Kentucky primary as a virtual dead heat, and I thought, Yeah, what they really need here is a commentator with racing experience to explain Cheap Speed: lots of 1's at the early calls, lots of losses to show for it.

There's probably a thousand things in the Bible that are anti democracy ("The Devil can quote scripture to serve his purpose").but it's still used.Good idea to use the copy of the Constitution;both more religion neutral and more importantly, more relevent.

Like what? Maybe it does, but I can't think of any scripture that is anti-democratic. I do like the idea of the using the Constitution though.

I'm talking lifetime, which includes her upset by Obama 8 years ago. I'll even give her 2 US Senate races, but not the virtual walkovers in her primaries there.

Ralph Nader is wrong and he is irrelevant. Let's assume the super delegates are simply non existent. Currently it takes 2,384 votes to win the nomination. That is one more than half of the total of 4,767 votes. Eliminating the 715 super delegate votes puts the total at 4,052. In that case, the winning candidate would need 2,027 votes. Clinton currently has 1768 pledged delegate votes. Sanders has 1496.
There are six or seven state primaries and The District of Columbia still to be held, with a total of 798 delegates to be selected. Sanders would need to win two thirds of those to win the nomination. Clinton needs one third to clinch the nomination. Considering that two of the remaining primaries are in New Jersey and California-where Clinton enjoys large leads in the polls-I would say her chances are very good.
He says Sanders would win the popular vote, but the crony superdelegates are there to stop someone like Sanders.
He says Clinton has 3 million more popular votes than Sanders, but that's because in some states independent voters cannot vote in the democratic primary.
So now Nader can read minds and knows that every Independent would vote for Sanders. Each party makes the rules for its own primaries and these rules were made years, even decades, ago. Anyone who thinks this is a conspiracy to defeat Sanders is a fool. He has had every chance. If he gets the nomination I will support him.
As I watch the betting markets put more money on Trump, every day it seems more likely that he will win.
Because of course, the favorite always wins.
I really don't think people want another Clinton in the White House. So it's probably going to be Trump or Sanders, not Clinton.
And I really think that is wishful thinking on your part. Clinton has won appreciably more delegates than Sanders; she is way ahead of him in the popular vote; and she leads Trump in polls in enough states to have a clear electoral college lead.
It would be fun to see Sanders and Cruz run as independents -- just to really make things interesting!

That will not happen.

It is fascinating to see how scared the Democrat elites are of Bernie Sanders. Their fear is understandable. If Sanders wins they might be out of a job.
https://www.yahoo.com/news/pall-neva...-election.html
Looks like the Democratic party is fracturing just like the Republican party.
This should send a clear message to both parties that American people are not happy with the way things are being run.
It would be interesting to see Sanders would run an independent campaign against HRC in the general if he loses the primary.

War On Women?
Hillary campaign spokesman Ed Rendell, spilled the beans on her campaign strategy vis-a-vis women.
Quote:
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Former Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell says Donald Trump's past comments on women will likely come back to haunt him because Rendell says "there are probably more ugly women in America than attractive women."

If a Republican had said that, the Twitterverse would have shut down the entire power grid.

Ed and Bill have a lot in common, making it comical to listen to him on this issue.
