Dick Morris: Hillary Will Lose Nomination to Bernie Sanders
Newsmax ^ | DECEMBER 30, 2015 | Todd Beamon

Posted on 12/31/2015 8:27:50 AM PST by Hojczyk

Hillary Clinton will lose the Democratic nomination to Bernie Sanders setting up a huge fight to "steal it by getting the super delegates" at the party's national convention next July in Philadelphia, political strategist Dick Morris predicted to Newsmax TV on Wednesday.

"Hillary is losing to Sanders," Morris told "Newsmax Prime" host Joe Pags. "There is one post-debate poll that shows the margin collapsing from 20 points to 15.

"In Iowa, it shows the margin collapsing from 18 to 5, 50 to 54," he added. "She's already at about eight or 10 behind in New Hampshire."

He predicted the floor fight next year during the Democratic National Convention because Sanders could win those two states — and then take those primaries in states that do not have large African-American voters, who are most likely to support Clinton.

"What may happen here is that if Sanders wins the first two primaries and then does well in the white primary states — not South Carolina, but the largely white ones — Sanders could beat her in all of those primaries," Morris said. "You could have a situation where she tries to win the nomination, steal it by getting the super delegates — all of whom believe that Sanders would be a disaster for the party."

Sorry, I don’t think so. Hil’s got as big a lock on the nomination as Bob Dole did back in the day, and a heck of a lot more MSM and LIV support.

The only way that will happen is if she is indicted.

Which isn’t going to happen.

Morris might be right on this one... Sanders is a better candidate... and a much better person.

Both parties may self destruct in reaction to voters choosing people they “aren’t supposed” to choose.

Tricky Dicky Morris predicted that Mittens Romney would beat Obama handily just 4 years ago.

The left sold socialism well. It will not bit them in the butt.

Damn. I had a sliver of hope for this most desirable outcome. Now Moron Morris has ruined it.

At this point only indictment or alcohol induced coma can stop her from the nomination. Cruz or Trump will mop the floor with the unlikeable, incompetent, corrupt, drunken shrew.

It seems like an outlandish prediction, but remember that she was a "lock" back in 2008, too -- before she lost to a jug-eared dope of an exchange student from Kenya.

I have said for a long time that her biggest challenge is that most Democrats don't trust her. A Hillary Clinton administration would look an awful lot like the George W. Bush administration ... and the Democratic base knows this better than anyone.

Hillary already went through this eight years ago with Obama.

She will destroy ANYBODY who stands in her way this time. She will use her FBI files on Sanders, any of his political supporters and any of his major donors.

If Hillary is breathing, she will get the nomination.

I finally saw my first hillary bumper sticker. In an area as leftist dominated as where I live that’s noteworthy. Bernie stickers are everywhere. If I were to prognosticate based on what I’m seeing then the toe-sucker would be correct.

I suspect the Iowa effect is at work....in that she just doesn’t present someone that they’d vote for in reality. Same thing in 2008 primary. On Iowa....I think Bernie might actually win. If he does....it does reset the news media talk and puts Bernie into a bump-up.

I’ve thought this all along, and I really think Bernie has a chance to take it all. The gibsmedat generation will put him over the top, especially with Bern waving college loan forgiveness in front of them.
