THE LATEST: CLINTON WINS SYMBOLIC PRIMARY IN NEBRASKA
AP ^ | 10 May 2016

Hillary Clinton has won the Democratic presidential primary in Nebraska, but it's a victory for the Democratic front-runner that won't get her any closer to clinching her party's nomination.

That's because Nebraska allocated all 25 of its delegates to this summer's Democratic National Convention in a caucus held on March 5 that was won by the Vermont senator.

He took home 15 delegates from that caucus, while Clinton won 10.

Earlier Tuesday, Sanders won the Democratic primary in West Virginia.

And we thought the Republican system of primaries and caucuses was convoluted and rigged for the insiders.

On radio headlines on the hour today I heard the news reader say, “those polled rated Trump higher on security/terrorism and Clinton higher on intelligence and higher morals.”

That’s what’s going out over the news sound bites on radio today!

His supporters will push him hard to run as a third party candidate. His campaign has the same “flavor” as Ron Paul’s did. Bedsheets over the freeways type stuff.

I’d love to see him run 3rd party & siphon off some of Hildabeast’s votes...

Uh...Sander’s won NE: With 96% counted it’s:

Sanders 19,120 57.1%

Clinton 14,340 42.9%

Sanders won both WV an NE tonight.

The NE D Party really screwed up, going to an early caucus just because they were envious of Iowa having such a big role. I wouldn’t be surprised if they go back to a real primary after this year’s fiascos.

Despite all the media BS about Trump and the republicrats the dims are actually in serious unity dissaray. I think by their convention the coronation of the hildabeast could be in doubt.

This is shaping up like the build up to 1968 dim convention where RFK was stealing the show from LBJ. I would like to hear the hildabeast say "I will not seek and I will not accept my party's nomination..." but not as much as bernie saying "I'm going third party".

I also expect bernie supporters to put on a show on par with the 1968 Chicago riots.

No, LBJ pulled out on March 31, 1968; convention was in late August.

I realize that but Bobby Kennedy was obviously upsetting any chance LBJ had for re-election in the primaries leading up to the convention.

That pattern is happening now with berne and the beast.
