Hey, Sanders kids, relax. The fix is in. 

Politico reports the delegate count arising out of the New Hampshire vote.

Among the 712 superdelegates, Hillary had a 45 to 1 margin a few months ago, in the 80% that the Associated Press was able to reach to survey.

From ABC:

In the overall race for delegates, Clinton has 394, thanks in large part to endorsements from superdelegates — party officials who can support the candidate of their choice.

Sanders has 42 delegates.

If you listen to Sander’s victory speech, He’s so left-wing he practically makes Obama look like the chairman of the Republican National Committee.

He’s not advocating nationalizing industries (YET), but he’s cocksure that he can take as much of anyone else’s money as he wants and spend it on just about anything. Free single-payer health care, free college, green energy, no more fossil fuels, $15 minimum wage, end “institutional racism” — Sanders sees no limits on what government can, should, and will do. And “Wall Street” will pay for it all.

She tried to do this against Obama too. It’s not going to work. They are not going to goto a general election with Bernie Sanders winning among the people and Hilary taking over because of Super Delegates. I guess in this case Bernie could bend over and take it but he’ll lose a lot of support and be shown to be just another politician in this case. Enthusiasm will be at an all time low.

Amazing luck for Hillary. She got all the Superdelegate votes and previously won 6 out of 6 coin tosses.

exactly...it certainly has the soviet flavor. The people got to vote for the candiate that the commie partry put forward. See, very democratic. The dem party just ‘improved’ that scheme making it appear as though the easily led liberal electorate had a true choice.

Their race is to 2382... Hillary started on Day One with a 362-10 lead. It is 32-32 in regular delegates so far, for a total of 394-42 at the moment. She is swinging from the Ladies’ Tees, but he can still win... especially getting 82-18 wins in the under-30 vote (which simply proves that our public education system has been indoctrinating them to like Socialism for decades now).

Is it just me or does the fact that Sanders (Communist) is winning scare the hell out of you?

He’s so fringe I can’t even believe he is seriously considered viable.

Really really really strange people out there these days.

I see the same Obama start gazing look from him young supporters.

Yikes.

But super delegates can change their votes at the convention?

If Biden enters the race, can he win the nomination without ever having received a single popular vote?

These folks do not remember the summer of 1968. Or, even worse, they do remember and don’t care.

And you won't. The Dems would lose the youth vote for a decade if the Leftist media announced an 82-18 result for Bernie in the under-30 vote still ending with a 15-13 delegate finish for Hillary.... which is why I'm posting it all over the place, LOL

I read an article at least a month ago that she has had them sign a contract. This will be a nightmare for the dems. Their elite choosing the candidate and the people's votes meaning nothing. Not very democratic.
