Clinton's pledged delegate count from tonight's wins stands at 405 to his 187.
This ignore supers.

I.e. have we already reached the point where it's mathematically impossible to close that?
(Without massive upset wins in later states)

Rubio already prepped his donors for a scenario where he wouldn't win a single Super Tuesday state and still makes it to the convention for a floor fight, lol. He and his campaign are really delusional. Their entire strategy now relies on the RNC and party establishment intervening in his favor and basically undermining all the voting thus far.

I'd say were about there. A 200~ delegate margin is huge.

Holy shit, will Hilldawg really have a 200+ pledged delegate lead after tonight?!? Didn't Barry-O only have a 100 delegate lead and that was an insurmountable chasm for Hillary in 08.

Rubio is done.

GOP has to make a choice tonight. Rally around the guy they hate or stomach the guy that is destroying their party.

Cruz is probably one of the top 3 most disliked people in DC. It's clear republicans want to stop Trump...but it's also clear only Cruz can do it.

It's got a super tiny Democratic population, mostly clustered in college towns. Some of the rural Democrats prefer Sanders because he's not an "establishment politician", I expect.

With equal numbers of precincts in the Democratic Primary only has 40k less votes than the Republican--it comes out to about 15% less, which isn't that substantial considering South Carolina had twice as many Republicans as Democrats.

I feel like that describes both Trump and Cruz--as in, the GOP hates both and thinks they are both destructive.

The establishment will absolutely get behind Cruz if it means stumping Trump. Everybody hates Cruz, but he presents a more overtly palatable GOP face to the general electorate and is, for better or worse, all in on conservative principles across the board.

OMG at Fox News saying several sources predicting Rick Scott is going to endorse Donald Trump. Rubio is goddamn cooked.

we all agree that Cruz winning the nomination and having a 1% chance of winning he presidency is better than trump getting the nom and having any chance, right? right?

They can't get behind Cruz, he's dead in most of the remaining states. Same with Kasich. For all of Rubio's inadequacies, there's no alternative to him.
