If Rubio gets the nominee by going to a brokered convention, I hope that Trump runs as an independent just to screw the Republicans.

Best case scenario for the Democrats.
 
KEY RACE ALERT

The Don still leading in VA by 5%

Surprise, surprise (OK, not really): Rubio has a Beltway fan club. In Virginia’s 8th congressional district, situated mostly inside the Washington Beltway, Rubio is currently crushing Trump 46 percent to 19 percent, by far his best showing anywhere in any primary in the country so far. The even better sign for Team Rubio: There’s a ton more votes in that part of Virginia to be reported, meaning that he’s likely to narrow his current 37 percent to 32 percent statewide deficit.

Well unless we know the demographic break downs county to county, I wouldn't panic about anything yet.


If everything goes as expected, he loses. He needs to do something unexpected, because he is behind.

Fair enough, but Super Tuesday has always had a very favorable lineup for Hillary. Bernie has a lot of favorable states coming up. If I were him, I'd pour a lot of energy into California. Big wins along the west coast could do a lot for him.

He won't even need to run. Massive numbers of Trump voters will just flat out leave the party and you'll never see a Republican president again.

Boom. Then Bern goes independent.

Booom. Then Bloomberg enters the ring.

Boooom. Kanye snatches Bernie's youth vote with a late entry.

Five Thirty Eight project that if Clinton and Sanders were heading to a tie, that Sanders would win 5 of the 11 states tonight. Because yes, today favors Clinton.

But if he falls short of that, he's just falling further behind.
 
I'm voting right now in a suburb of Dallas. Man, I don't know why I didn't early vote. These lines are insane. The Democratic line (the one I'm in) was relatively short to the insanely long Republican line. The wait is like 90 minutes.

I must say, it really scares me that 80% of the people in the 600+ long Republican line are likely going to vote for either Trump or Cruz. Also sad is the complete lack of diversity in the Republican line. Everybody is white. I saw a black woman who was married to a white guy and one Indian. Other than that, I kid you not, all white in the Republican line.
 
Trump and Clinton win Alabama, per CBSN.

EDIT: Trump wins Mass, BUT the state is leaning towards Sanders, big surprise.

Sanders also leaning in Oklahoma, (!) but Clinton has taken Tennessee, says CNN.

Some surprises?
 
AL/MA/TN for Trump
AL/TN for Clinton
MA too close to call for the Dems
OK too close to call for the GOP and Dems

Trump/Clinton are gonna be the nominees.

Right, so shouldn't we wait until he fails to win 5 tonight before we say his campaign is done, etc?
