Anecdotal evidence here, but it didn't really seem like there were a ton of Democratic caucus goers at the site I went to (on University of Minnesota campus). For fun we walked over to the Republican one and holy fuck the line extended for a long distance out of the building. I don't even know how they'll get all those votes on time.

Can we claim Oklahoma as part of the South so I can point to this Sanders win the next time a bunch of obnoxious college yanks talk about how the South needs to be nuked from orbit?
No? Oh well, I tried.
But yeah, this win to me means Oklahoma is probably more white than I realized.

To me the split is so obvious and fascinating. Cambridge going Clinton but Somerville going Sanders. It's just so perfect based on the demographics.

It's the best. Start a drinking game. Take a drink any time Cenk says the word progressive.

Bernie would be in better shape if he won one state and had single digit losses in the south.
Not sure why everyone is focusing on the number of states won.
I dont know much of how this works, but how is rubio in 2nd?

Probably because Texas delagates not included yet.
Would cruz winning Oklahoma push him above rubio? Nevermind texas will probably make cruz have a 50+ delegate gap against rubio.
Would help if Sanders deemed them worthy of hearing his message

It's no surprise. When you run a campaign based on FUD, subtle racism, and no vocal filter, that creates a gravity when some of the racists, uninformed, and entertained get pulled in.

While I don't ultimately disagree with they're saying on TYT, it's not a good look and doesn't do very good to attempt to try to unite the party.
Unfortunate.
Unfortunate.

beautiful inst it?
Rubio is gonna make his stand in Florida. His speech confirms it for sure. What a joke. As Megan Kelly from Fox says, at some point you have to start winning. It's too late, Rubio. Your path to victory is almost shut off after tonight.
The Republican Establishment will have to decide to either support Trump, who is a disaster, or Cruz, who they loathe. It's delicious in it's own way.

Kasich is staying in until Ohio.

Clinton is actively meeting with minority leaders. Just see the work she did in South Carolina.
Obviously that would technically be better. But winning 4 states in one night is also impressive. Perception is reality.
Same. I have been dreading today for a while now. Logically, they knew Clinton was going to win, they even said so at the very beginning.
They bought in waaaay too much into Bernie hype.
I mean, Bernie is my man as well, but I never lost sight of the fact that his job was to force Clinton left.
He has done and is continuing to do a splendid job.
Yeah, I feel like she broke when she's talking about "I don't like this, BUT ISN'T DEMOCRACY GREAT!?!"
Secular Talk?
But he prefers Bernie so if you're a Hillary fan then it's not for you.
Take a drink every time four-eyes interrupts Ana (changed name since it came up in the lower third, didn't know it before).

Chad needs to explain where he got those from.

Again, winning the majority of the states on Super Tuesday has lead to that person going on to win the nomination in something like the last 12 instances where that happened.

Pretty much guarantees Trump victory if everyone else stays in. Delegates just continue to pile up while everyone else fights for scraps.

+300 - 350 is what we're looking for from Trump. That would keep him on line to win the nomination outright (though a brokered convention sounds enticing).
She knows how this movie ends. There's no elegant, clean way out of this process for the GOP. They either nominate an unelectable madman, or they steal the nomination from him, splintering the party. Either scenario carries a very real risk of losing the Senate, the White House, the whole judiciary, maybe even the House.
The GOP is entering nightmare territory. And she knows it.
The midwest/tornado belt is white as hell (and hugely segregated), isn't it?
Well their other choices are a robot (not even the cool kind), a man in hibernation, and the zodiac killer.

Why does every Rubio speech sound like he won the whole thing?
If he comes out of tonight 100 or so delegates behind all the perception on the world won't matter.
Yup.
She is a lot of things, but she is not stupid.
This does not end well for the GoP.
