Need to win Massachusetts, it's Bernie's firewall.

Quote:

Early exit poll data from NBC News showed Sanders leading Clinton among white voters in Massachusetts. Eighty-six percent of voters in that state identified themselves as white. Over 80 percent of voters in the state also said they believe Sanders is honest and trustworthy, while 53 percent said they felt the same way about Clinton.

Bernie wins four states.

Vermont, Minnesota, Oklahoma, and Colorado.

That's better than I expected him to do.

Concur.

He's NOT "dead."

I don't trust the results from Massachusetts but I will call it a near tie, Sanders gets 43 delegates to HRC-DWS cabal's 45.

Now more than ever the media is acting like it's already set in stone, and drooling over the impending war between Clinton and Trump.

I'm also surprised Bernie didn't win Massachusetts. In other states (particularly the South), I suspect one of his biggest issues is that people don't know who the hell he is, but everyone knows Clinton. Furthermore, for some reason black communities in certain states think she's actually their friend.

She's up by 190 delegates after yesterday (w/o the fungible super delegates).
That's actually a better lead than Pres. Obama had in '08.

It's halftime and Bernie is down 35 points. Could he pull an upset in the second half? Sure but it's unlikely.

197, actually but Obama's big 2008 lead came at a later point in the primary season, I believe. Also, at this point in 2008 Hillary was leading too. It was pretty much a seesaw battle all the way to the Convention.

Sure, John. Mebbe I was conflating the fact that Hill's numbers with African American voters exceed Obama's in these early states.
