The SD can’t go against the primary winner.

That is the best line I’ve read tonight.

The Democrat primary process is interesting. In some states the Dems prefer a communist and in others they prefer a criminal to represent them. I can’t decide which speaks worse of them.

That fact that Shrillary can get soundly beaten by this washed up socialist shows what a weak candidate she is. Not to mention the fact she had her head handed to her by a community organizer from Chicago 8 years ago. She will get absolutely trounced by a Donald Trump.

I don't think Hillary will face Trump.

Once the Dims realize that Hillary is a loser, then I think Obama will let the DOJ indict her on the e-mail scandal. Just to get her out of the way.

Thing is, Hillary is probably the strongest candidate the Dims have this point. Biden, or that alleged Indian woman from Massachusetts (I forget her name) aren't going to get anyway near the support Hillary will.

While the media has been focusing on Trump, not too many people have noticed the problem the Dims have coming up with a viable candidate.

I heard that Hillary swung everything in Bernie Sanders favor with comments she made in the debate Sunday night about the Michigan auto bailout.

On the Dem side, a vote to eat is no vote at all.

They might never admit it but the media give themselves away with their fervent interest in the differences in outlook, voting record, etc. among the GOP candidates hence the saturation coverage. They love to mock and impugn the GOP but they also work very hard at ignoring the ideological monotony of the leftists.

I’m not so sure MI blue collar dems switched from Hitlery to Bernie. Be interesting to see the voter breakdown and especially totals by party. I wonder if a lot of blue color dems crossed over to Trump, taking votes away from Hitlery and thereby leaving only ultra liberals to vote on the Dem side, thus giving victory to Bernie essentially by default. If true, this could be a harbinger of what the General could look like.

I would think if Hillary were the candidate against Trump that Trump would receive a substantial amount of crossover vote.

the 35 and under crowd is HUGE for sanders, and sanders clocks trump one on one.

Approx. 65% of the voting populace tends to vote DEM no matter what. The odds are against a Republican winning no matter who it is.

Then add the dead, the rigged machines and the illegals and it really sucks.

“Of course the media is downplaying her Michigan loss by talking about how she dominated Mississippi.”

Ha! Mississippi (my home state) would be the last state in the union to vote for a communist/Sanders. Hillary’s win was hugely expected, but they will play it up like she did something grand there.

As I have been saying...
the D voters do NOT want Hillary the LIar shoved down their throats

some enthusiastically support Bernie the Red (whose major political views are very similar to Hillary’s anyway, he is just a more honest version of it and the public is sick of being lied to so....why not Bernie?)

some are NOT enthusiastic about Bernie but will take almost anything to avoid getting stuck with Hillary, and it happens to be old Bernie that is their only viable choice so they pick him

keep a watch. Bernie doesn’t have Hillary’s money ... or control over the party machine... but he does have a thousand times the D party membership support than Hillary ever will have

It'll be interesting to see if this motivates Bernie to go hard at Hillary in tomorrow's debate. Like maybe mention emails.

If Bernie wins Ohio...you're gonna see YUGE pressure on all the Dem superdelegates who have come out for Hillary..

I wonder how much of today’s polling error is due to not sampling enough cell phone data. Virtually all young voters use them exclusively. Older voters not so much.

I don’t know how true it is but I read yesterday that many of the “Hillary” emails were answers to emails that were sent to her by others, often inappropriately in term of security measures. Sent by both public and private persons.

Or in the words of the.greatest prognosticators of modern times (Scooby Doo & Shaggy):

“Like yikes, man!”

This is too cool. Enjoying every moment.

But Hillary won Wayne County.

In fact it was her best county. I wonder who the Muslims in Dearborn voted for Hillary or Bernie.

The base of the Democrat party is pretty much communist, any more.
