You underestimate me. I have been upgraded to a Berniac and will be seeking treatment for HDS if Bernie loses on Tuesday.
You OTOH are under the curse of 'Witch of the East'.

PS: Did you read from yesterday where Bill Clinton used this term?

Looks like Senator Professor Warren isn't buying into Sanders plan to flip the superdelegates against the popular vote and pledged delegate vote.

"I don’t think that superdelegates ought to sway the election."

You're reading a hell of a lot into what she said, Bob. You could just as easily say that Sen. Warren believes that the idea of superdelegates pledging themselves to a particular delegate before the first vote is cast is anti-democratic.

I think Senator Warren's right and is looking to the future.

I believe Boreas was referencing your post's lead, but could be mistaken.
