You're going to be very disappointed when he takes New York.
I can't wait for the meltdown.
Can't tell if serious.

Will be shocked if he even comes close in New York.

:lol he wins NY I'll eat my hat. Closed primary, large AA population, closwr ties to Clinton, with current large Clinton advantage. Sanders will lose at least as bad as he wins tonight.
Half-serious.
There's still weeks before the New York primary.
Newest poll has him closing Hillary's lead and I know how much you guys love polls.

You do know independents can't vote in NY primary right? And Bernie has lost with registered Democrats by fairly wide margins in other primaries. Reason his internals are probably showing him down 20-30 points, as shown by the Devine interview saying their goal is 40% of the vote a week ago.
And yes the polls included independents so you can't trust them.
Less than 2, not that it matters. She wins hands down, and ends the Bernie train with a succession of wins the following week.
He isn't losing by 20-point or 30-point margins.
Almost guaranteed now unless Trump comes up with the receipts on the Cruz sex scandal.

There's no logical reason Bernie would take New York. The demographics aren't there, it's a closed primary, and it's practically her home state.

newest poll also has 10% of a closed primary sample IDing as independent while clinton leads by 18 in the dem ID

To be fair, it's literally his home state as well. (born and raised)

A win in Wisconsin would certainly help keep Bernie in the conversation but he has been handed a once-in-lifetime opportunity with the Panama Papers to draw a stark distinction between himself and Hillary. He needs to move on that now to take control of the narrative of this race. You got your one chance, Bernie. Don't blow out!
Damn. Can't wait to see the GOP tear itself apart

If he loses by more than 10 points, his campaign is over that day as he will never get over 80% of California, which he would need. If he loses by less than 5, then you have to wait for April 26, where he would have to basically repeat NY 4 times over to keep California at a 65-70% win margin....w
Clinton is going to pick up nearly a 100 delegates due to DC and Puerto Rico alone, which I think a lot of people are forgetting.
He's not exactly speaking well to the issues people in the state care about. It's like his team picked up an old newspaper and just leafed through it, looking for issues they could use without checking if it was a good idea.
That literally doesn't matter. The man still thinks the subway accepts tokens. He couldn't be more out of touch with the state if he tried.

We did it, WISCONSIN!
Cruz sounds like a fucking televangelist. And he's on that Scott Walker thumb.

Not the rally I volunteered at in La Crosse.
Wisconsin voter checking in. 1 hour wait in a rural area to vote. The two couples ahead of me of course did not need to show their ID because they were neighbors with the 108 year old polling lady. I was asked to show my drivers license because I must look like a fucking communist. Voter ID Laws - Protecting the integrity of your vote.

eh, she's gonna pick up 30-40 from those two - they don't have 100 pledged combined and at the very least, she ain't rendering him unviable in PR

I love how Cruz mentions religious liberty and only checks Catholics and Jews.
I loathe Cruz with a passion not even Trump gets close.

there was also plenty of time after NH for Sanders to close Clinton's lead in SC, and that only got even more absurd (and he even outspent her and had more offices/staff there).
This isn't the same and you know it.
He only won because of the high white population vote and from what I'm reading white people are trained to vote for Bernie while black people are required to vote for Hillary.
You're legit crazy, or just trolling (I guess we've seen a lot of that lately).

Yet. Aren't there already rumors that someone close to the Clintons is in there?

He has to win New York by double digits to even have any chance at all of winning.
At this stage, any win that isn't double digits is a loss for him.

Oh right lets have Cruz and his wife embrace live in prime time. Let there be no doubts.

yeah. for one, clinton probably isn't gonna get outspent in NY
That's regarding him warning about it in 2011 while Hilary backed it.
I think it was in NYC. On phone, so I can't get you the link, but it's the c-span link in gaf's own Bernie thread.

Uuuuugh fuck ted cruz. He's proabably gonna be chosen in a contested convention after tonight. He's just as crazy as Trump, but without the humor factor and is also a religious zealot. Hopefully Trump goes third party and fucks him over. That would be fun. I'd be fine with all the drama as long as neither of them end up winning lol

67 Puerto Rico, 45 DC last I looked.
And yes I doubt she'll get exactly a 100 as I was exaggerating, but with those demographics, she'll probably get 70%, which is over 70 delegates.
But he only needs like 55% of the remaining votes. And he has been doing that for the last couple votes. No double digits needed.

I'm pretty sure Cruz intentionally talks like a televangelist to get more religious votes.
