This whole argument is about Sanders.

And to the second, who would have done better. You know Democrats aren't the only ones who vote.

To you. To me it is about the habit democrats have of trying to capture the center with realism and no-nonsense stuff, misjudging their electorate.

I've no idea who would have done better. If there wasn't anyone, then the failure remains with the party for not grooming anyone more suitable/telling gore to stop being a fucking idiot.

Fortunately the party seems to have improved in that regard, as they managed to convince/force Biden to not enter the race.
 
CNN and Guardian are a little different in results.

At 24% CNN has Hillary at a slightly larger lead than Guardian. I don't know who to trust!

Edit: CNN @ 24% Hillary 52% Sanders 48%

This party grooming stuff has got to stop. The only non-incumbent candidate since, I guess Nixon, that had major party support and won was GWB, whose dad was the President. Carter? Too conservative for Dems. Reagan was the neo-Goldwater who busted up Ford in '76. The DLC was created to support centrist Dems like because the national party wouldn't. Of course Obama up-ended the DNC in '08 to beat Clinton. Its just doesn't work.

I would probably regret it, but I would be curious to talk to some of these young people about why they like Bernie so much. I can't imagine that when I was in my late teens and 20s I would be going with the old white socialist over Hillary. Obama I get. Heck, I was won over by Obama and I was in my mid 30's at the time. But I've found Hillary to be a lot more likable since then.

Clinton's essentially trying to be George H.W. Bush to Obama's Reagan.
 
Big indicator for Clinton moving forward, from Ralston:

Report from field: Hillary wins all delegates at Doolittle, heart of African American community. 2 precincts, 33 delegates

Man... I really hope Hillary wins it today. My facebook is so full of acidic bullshit. It's time for her to wrap this up and for people to stop being crazy. We need to win 2016, and all that matters is picking the person who can.

Yep, Bernie campaign earlier said they might stay in until June though :/

Hillary is down with spying on americans. Bernie isnt. Thats why i like him, anyway, besides his disarming but charming demeanor and winning smile
 
I hope these results stay because then I get to pick OrangeGreyBlue's new avatar.
Technically it's a two-person vote, but I'm deferring it to you on account of I'm about to drink an actual metric ton of alcohol and am also lazy.
You seriously saying that a black man called barack hussein obama running on hope and change in the united states is a regular candidate?
Nope. That was a hamfisted "whaddya mean IRREGULAR" joke (in the vein of "what do you mean YOU people") on my part.
 
If it looks like Bernie has no chance at the nomination, what will kill his campaign is people stop donating when it stops looking like you have a chance to win.

What the hell, Hillary comes out and paints a county, then leaves, but Bernie comes out and paints a county and stays there and won't shut up about millionaires and billionaires. They need to do some bumper car shit, we want blood you weenies!

Haha, yeah it only seems to bring someone out when the lead changes.
