Sanders just got slammed dunked in New York. This was a must win state for him. There is absolutely no possibility of him winning this nomination. Next Tuesday, April 26- it's going to be even more embarrassing for Bernie Sanders and his supporters.

Tuesday April 26
Connecticut Closed 70 delegates
Delaware Closed 31 delegates
Maryland Closed 118 delegates
Pennsylvania Closed 210 delegates
Rhode Island Mixed 31 delegates

Hillary Clinton is leading by double digits in all of them. After this big win in New York her momentum is going to show itself in the above states.

Sanders has been getting clobbered in these closed Primary states where only Democrats are allowed to vote. He's had a run on several of the smaller caucus states, due to very low voter participation. Typically underdogs will win them, because only underdog supporters will bother to show up for a 3 hour meeting to cast a vote. Had these states been primary states where several days of voting are allowed along with the use of mail in ballots Hillary Clinton would have won them all, and he would be a distant memory now.

If he stays in this race after losing this badly in New York it only proves what Democrats think of him anyway. That he's no Democrat, and he will not do what is right and helpful for the Democrat Party. If he decides he just wants to stay in the limelight--while launching assaults at Hillary Clinton, he does damage to her in the General Election. It's time for this party to unify, and that's not going to happen if Sanders insists on staying in a race that he cannot win.

It ain't over 'til it's over.

You never know what those delegates and super delegates will end up doing.

Besides, it makes for a more exciting show at the Convention.

Oh right, I'm sure you're real concerned about what's in the best interests of a political party whose name you can't even spell. :rolleyes:

Poster please.
 
at this point he wants to stay in to the end even though he has no chance of winning in the popular vote or pledged delegates and claims he can get super delegates to switch to him yadayadayada.... I think he must be trying to negotiate a position within the party...?

In this instance--no Democrat Super Delegates are not going to budge for a candidate that is about 2.9 million behind Hillary Clinton. And it's going to get a lot larger next Tuesday.

Bernie Sanders is done, you can stick a fork in him.

If Bernie Sanders stays in this race, it's just for more campaign donations. Of course after this loss, I doubt too many people are stupid enough to keep sending him money.

Frankly, I couldn't really think of a position in the cabinet or any other that he's really qualified for. A senator that has been in the senate for 25 long years, and does not know that the Federal Reserve banks and the Federal Government operate separate and independent of one another, has got some very serious issues with what he doesn't know. One of his main campaign themes has been a promise to break up the big banks, and he had no clue--he couldn't. Sanders didn't know that he, nor congress have any authority break up the big banks. That shows an ineptitude that is quite frankly--astounding.

He should not drop out before she gets indicted.


If she is going to be indicted they might as well start an FBI investigation into Colin Powell's and Condi Rice's emails as they have the same email issues.
Rice Aides, Powell Also Got Classified Info on Personal Email Accounts

Hillary Clinton will not be indicted, the state department has repeatedly stated she did nothing wrong. That the 22 emails were marked "classified" by inter agencies of the government long after she received or sent them. This is the exact same issue that Colin Powell and Condi Rice had happen.

Sanders had a one-on-one with the Pope. Think about the PR! I think this is the move toward a Clinton/Sanders ticket with a blessing of Democrats by the Pope.

It would spell political suicide for Hillary Clinton to choose Bernie Sanders as a running mate for VP. He's too far left, it's very clear he has very little experience in government matters--especially any executive experience.

Republicans would target him for his praise of Fidel Castro, they would use his proposals to paint Hillary Clinton as a socialist, a communist. He would be like a 5 thousand pound anchor around her neck.

I imagine she will go with a Democrat Hispanic--one that is popular with them--possibly a former governor with executive experience.
 
"If he decides he just wants to stay in the limelight--while launching assaults at Hillary Clinton, he does damage to her in the General Election."

Actually not.

Sanders’ attacks are nothing new, they’ve been used against Clinton for years with little positive results for her attackers, democratic or republican, which will likely have little adverse effect during the GE.

Indeed, Trump will face the same problem as has Sanders: that not only are the attacks against Clinton unfounded and without merit, but they’ll likely not have the desired effect, and might actually backfire against Trump.

‘Benghazi’ and ‘emails’ alone aren’t going to win Trump the GE.
 
There's no reason for Sanders to get out. He's getting his message across, and the more people who hear it, the better chance the country has of a major revolt against our corrupt government. Trump is serving up a similar message of revolt, albeit in a much more crude and polarizing way. It's not going to happen this election, but they're laying the groundwork for something potentially very big in 2020.

If it wasnt for those damn super delegates....
Hilary supporters are pathetic!!! At least some in the GOP recognize the fleecing the anti establishment candidates are getting.

No that's not correct, it's one thing to have someone on the opposite side of the isle attack you. That's normal.

But when you have a candidate that is supposedly on the same side of the isle, that has no possibility of winning the nomination and wants to continue to harp on things that the overwhelming majority are voting against, you're only not making an idiot out of yourself, but you are also doing damage to the party at the same time.

Sanders needs to drop out of this race for the good of the Democrat party. This party will not unify until he drops out. Hillary Clinton needs to focus on the General election, & not what is coming out of this nursing home candidate's mouth.

HUH??? She's winning by over 2.5 million in votes and about 250 more pledged delegates than Bernie....he isn't even close to winning anything....even WITHOUT THE SUPER DELEGATE votes...
