Not saying that the bombings in Belgium aren't important, but CNN switched away from covering the Democratic Primary as soon as they declared Sanders the winner in one of the three contests of the night.

Yeah, sorry man. I wanted Bernie to win very badly too. It's time to admit that he's lost.

I gave him $10 a few months ago. His emails used to ask for $1.

His most recent email asks for a minimum of $10, then $27, $50, $100,. and on.

I was a true believer, but it's over. Accept it and make a different choice.

EDIT: just going to say, if Bernie isn't getting the nomination, I'm going Trump.

If America won't vote for the leader it needs, I'm going to vote for the leader it deserves. We apparently can't vote for progressive politics so I'll vote for regressive politics that are so bad that the entire world rejects it.

this whole campaign has centered around the idea that superdelegates don't matter for some reason and that if sanders wins the popular vote then the superdelegates will follow

but if establishment is so clearly in favor of clinton, i mean, do you really think they are going to vote bernie

Yes, actually.

If Bernie gets the popular vote, it would be political suicide to not switch to Bernie. A delegate not voting for their generally elected nomination would be bad.

His emails have been asking for $27 since like November.

Barring an indictment, his campaign is basically over. My state had its primary say a while ago, but I will absolutely vote for Trump in the general, because gently caress the Clintons forever.

Yeah yeah #blacklivesmatter and all that, but did they have to vote for the lady I don't like instead of the old guy with drool probs? I wish there was some kind of compromise where their votes didn't count for so much in southern states so that my candidate could win, maybe like 60% you think?

i think he really underestimated how much and how effectively the media could betray him and the political system or what it once was

also the cold war people + their influence on their kids to be ignorant about but against the word socialism seems to be a big issue when i hear republicans talk about him

i feel worse about the political system i already hated after months of cnn doing HILLARY WON and CLINTON STRONG and poo poo in size 90 font on their website, and deleting the poll where 72% of their viewers voted bernie

Correct, Hillary Clinton had the lead on Super Delegates when she ran against Obama as well. It would be complete suicide for the Democrats if the super delegates don't switch off of Hillary and go for Bernie, assuming he makes up his pledged delegates. There's WAY TO MANY millennials ready to just not vote or vote for Trump, especially if the Democrats just screw over Bernie with the Super Delegate system.

All other media bullshit about Bernie Sanders aside, I would argue that two suspects on the run being identified in connection to the Brussels attacks is probably more important than him winning a net -1 delegates. CNN always runs international/global news on the overnight at this hour.

I think I clearly stated she has the regular delegate lead? But it's only a couple hundred delegates. Bernie isn't that far behind with regular delegates that he can't over come that loss.

It's also important to mention, Hillary's big delegate lead comes from winning states that will vote Republican in November.

I guess if given the choice to eat something boring versus eating a turd, they'd rather eat the turd since it has flavor? That's my only guess.

Because you can't win a primary with nothing but white college students.
