NY Times ^ | June 6, 2016 | AMY CHOZICK and PATRICK HEALY

Hillary Clinton became the first woman to capture the presidential nomination of one of the country’s major political parties on Monday night, according to an Associated Press survey of Democratic superdelegates, securing enough of them to overcome a bruising challenge from Senator Bernie Sanders and turn to a brutal five-month campaign against Donald J. Trump.

What a surprise! -- NOT.

Now it's going to Hillary or Trump.

Republicans need to unite and support Trump, or we will end up with President Hillary Clinton.

One can always hold out hope that Bernie goes third party.

Or that most of his supporters either stay home or switch to Trump. They're pretty pissed off at the DNC and Hillary.

Bernie has pointed out that the superdelegates don’t vote until the convention. And he plans on contesting the convention.

Think “Dewey Wins” in 1948. If Sanders wins tomorrow, despite the 11th hour Lyn’ Ted-like trick tonight, Clinton will not be the public winner. She’ll have lost, Bernie will be emboldened. I doubt he could topple her outright, the superdelagates insulate her a bit, but I bet he might demand the VP slot, which would be great. Why shouldn’t he? Trump would get the “best” of both to run against.

Meanwhile Plugs is still counting, using his fingers and toes, to confirm the final delegate total.

Seems like the only qualification the NYT can come up with is she is a woman.

I hope he and his supporters burn the place down.

Figuratively, of course.

More or less.

Thank goodness. For a while there I thought we’d have to deal with Crazy Bernie and we’d have a tougher fight for the youth vote. Now, we’ve got a good shot at being able to pick up some BernOuts, who will consider Bernie’s possible endorsement of Hillary for the sake of the party as a betrayal.

Der Hildebeast can do her victory dance, pump her fists in the air and get blitzed with the celebratory champagne. When Trump gets through with her, she will wish she never heard of Trump.

Actually I’m glad she is the nominee because finally justice is going to be meted out to these two career criminal grifters. For the next 5 months Trump is going to lay it out all for the people to see, who the Clintons REALLY are and if she still wins after all that, then this country was already finished.

Wiki:

"Amy Chozick is an American political reporter who works for the New York Times and primarily writes about Hillary Clinton and her family."

I would offer this correction:

"Amy Chozick is an American political reporter who works for the New York Times and worships Hillary Clinton and her family.

I'm glad too. Trump can say "Hillary belongs in jail", and no one can really argue.

All the things they've been saying about the Republican party have now come true for the Democrat party.....

The party is in disarray. The convention will be a mess. The party's divided. The party has a flawed candidate. Landslide coming......
