Excluding super delegates there is no chance in hell the gap doesn't significantly widen tonight
So, I mean, I think this is yet another fake Clinton scandal, but I will say that saying "only if it's legal" before you do something is not, technically, a legal defense if the thing you're doing turns out not to be legal. You are supposed to not do the thing until you know whether it's legal or not.

It's just Bill being genial. No way they planned to appear at polling stations without checking the legality of it first. And at least one of the polling stations should have turned them away if it was.
But it's not, as far as I can tell from the laws.

1. Bill X reduces consumer protection for the financially vulnerable.
2. Politician A supports Bill X.
3. Politician A is aligned with Politician B.
4. Politician B is likely to support Bill X.
5. Politician B supports reducing protection for the financially vulnerable.
4 is the iffiest, but given Clinton's past views on banking, is likely to hold true in my view. She'll superficially fight it though. Or recast it as respecting States' independence.
No I mean the popular vote in individual states. The exits from MA looks pretty great for Bernie. Enough to close the gap and maybe even win.
Well, I did my duty, and voted in the Texas primary for the Democratic party. The lines were short -- Democratic lines, anyway -- and the parking lot was full of Republican activists trying to sway the Republican primary happening one room over.
But all was quiet in the Democratic Primary voting area, where three old people tried to use one book to figure out who was eligible.
I managed to scribble my vote in and make America safe for democracy one more time.

They should really just toss all Hillary votes out.

You're condemning Clinton because someone who wants her to win has taken a position you don't like, as if it follows that Clinton must also have the same position. But it doesn't follow.

If he spent SOME money in those states, that would have been an acceptable minimal effort. Spending no money in those states essentially means that he didn't even try.
Haha, I'm not delusional enough to think that Bernie never lies or changes his mind. Hell, be may still change his mind!
My reasoning is based on his reasoning that he already provided. Most people who talk about going the distance say so for strategic reasons. Bernie says he's going the distance to be fair to every state so that their voices can be heard. That is a decision based on principle, and since Bernie has shown himself to be a principled man, I believe he'll do it for those reasons. It isn't even about winning or losing at that point, so losing wouldn't change anything.

When exactly would Sanders be expected to endorse Hillary? Would that be before, during, or after the convention?
Before easily. Maybe as early as later this month or next after he drops out after March 15th.

Any word on what the Trump press conference is for? I'm guessing an endorsement of some sort, timed to take any wind out of the sails of Cruz and Rubio.
Oh, and this from earlier, lol...
"Even after all I said, they still want me!"

When she is picked and starts campaigning for the general.

Voted for Hillary!
At my precinct there was a decent mix of Republicans and Democrats. Couldn't get a feel for who the Republicans were voting for, but all the Democrats in line with me where older Hispanic ladies, so sorry Bernie bros. This was in San Antonio.

Within the week he drops out or if he doesn't drop, immediately at the convention.

Conceding them entirely presents a perceptual problem, similar to leaving South Carolina before the votes were full counted. It makes logical sense, but gives the impression that only Northern states matter.
Clinton is probably going to win those Southern states, but she's still advertising because it gives the impression that those voters are still important to her.
Usually, the concession.drop out speech is when the secondary candidate endorses the primary winner.
For example, here's Hillary's exit speech in 2008.

It doesn't mean a 100% match on that topic, but I think some of the questions were "Should muslims be allowed in the country" so might have matched that
minor effort

I'd expect before. He'd undoubtedly be asked to speak at the convention.

Cruz actually pproposed legislation trying to ban Muslims. He might actually be worse than Trump regarding Muslims
I recognize that she has supported the idea of the CFPB in the past, but given the opportunity to parse the issue into seeming shades of grey and waffle, she'll do so because of that relationship. It is based on my assessment of that relationship.

Take a look at some of Cruz and Rubio's opinions on things.
Yes. They're deluded enough.
Both Democratic nominees have experience.
yes queen.

As good as that one stat was for Trump, this is equally as bad for Sanders...

Speaking of DWS, and given that this thread (or maybe that was PoliGAF) delved into discussion of contributions as worthwhile investments for quite a few posts:
What if there was a money bomb for DWS's primary opponent?
(Actually, come to think of it, why doesn't Bernie explicitly endorse that guy?)

In every single state in every single primary in every single poll Hillary wins this margin by a huge margin.

Even cuter is how Kasich is still talking so positively.
At least he has said that if you don't win your own state you should drop out, including himself.
