Nobody expected Sanders to do well in the southern states, though he did take Oklahoma. Massachusetts is the state that best indicates his overall condition, since it's incredibly torn between Bernie and Hillary. Seems to be having a good head start in Minnesota and Colorado. He's definitely not stopping anytime soon.

Let me know when Bernie is President then I will acknowledge his existence.

I would say that Tennessee is a better indicator of where Sanders stands.

Ted Cruz: "Head to head, our campaign beats Donald Trump resoundingly."
Ok there Ted, not sure what numbers he is looking at...
It's the standard post-loss speech of "Oh crap, gotta say something positive so that I don't lose all of my voters." I think the only reason him and some of the others are staying in is to prevent Trump from hitting the magic number. They know individually that they're all toast. Sanders, on the other hand....

Looks like Rubio is going to get on the board with a convincing win in Minnesota.

Anyone else find it interesting Rubio has taken every major city? Except for one or two Trump won (but he has the entire states). Same with Clinton.
Looks like Rubio is going to get on the board with a convincing win in Minnesota. Only because he did well in the Urban areas around Minneapolis.
Why exactly do you seem to be rooting for an establishment rino type? Want more of the same?
It's all moot anyways. Trump steam rolled practically everything breaking record turnouts. While the Democrats are not coming close to them.

Out of all this, I bet all we hear about tomorrow is how Rubio won.

Rubio's campaign is alive with competitive states ahead, Cruz has nothing to look forward to. If he can't win the Deep South, what can he win? He is noncompetitive in New England and not much better in the Midwest. Neither of them is going to catch Trump but Rubio's outlook is a lot better than Cruz.

Rubio stands no chance against Trump if Cruz drops though. If Rubio Drops it would at least be interesting.

I don't think so, people are jumping off Cruz, I mean his best friend in the Senate endorsed Trump. Rubio supporters wouldn't go to him, they would go to Kasich. I don't see any of them dropping out tho, Carson MIGHT tonight, but Kasich is staying in until at least Ohio.
By Altimaomega 2016-03-01 23:18:58
Yeah.. Guess it's going to be Trump 2016. Looks like those KKK votes came through.
Some talk of Kasich perhaps being Trumps VP.

Kasich is going to be the running mate of whoever wins the nomination.

It doesn't matter if sanders wins the popular vote in the rest of the remaining states, Hillary has enough super delegates to push her over the finish line.
Sorry Bernie fans, but hey, it's better that you learn the democratic party doesn't give a ***about you sooner rather than later.

If you look at realistic issues, like policies that can actually be accomplished, the Sanders supporters #2 candidate should be Donald Trump. But if for some reason illegal immigrants and Syrian refugees are your top issues then I guess not.

Trump is progressive and socialist? Cause that's what people vote him for; next to everyone voting for him will transition into Clinton.

It's funny, when this all started I looked at this as an equivalent to Justin Bieber running for PM here. You know, a famous guy with stupid amounts of money, and starting a campaign based off of fame. A cocky POS who can do no wrong running for leader. I thought "This is a joke, he'll make it like 30 seconds, the novelty will wear off and all of this will blow over." Now it's like "Oh ***, this is really happening..."

Isn't Clinton going to be the same as if Obama was still in charge anyway? I mean yeah she's made out of money and she will bring forth the alien disclosure(!)but are there any major differences between them?
By Altimaomega 2016-03-02 11:11:31
So you're comparing Trump to Bieber and President to PM..
You should feel bad. Oh wait your Canadian.. Never mind!
