She might be "ahead on delegates" but way behind on momentum. I think she's now lost 11 of the last 17 primaries to Bernie Sanders. Simply astounding.

Imagine if this was happening to Trump. People would say that Trump was "backing his way in" to the nomination and that he should not be nominated because obviously the voters have turned against him.

It's going to be quite entertaining to see how they spin this at the DNC convention should both of them be relatively close in "pledged delegates" but Shrillary way ahead on those "super delegates." It will definitely have the appearance to Bernie supporters that the "fix is in."

Think about this. If the Super Delegates were to switch over to Bernie, he would be ahead right now!

Now some say that the problem will be solved by putting Bernie on the ticket. But would Bernie supporters truly be satisfied with that outcome? Even more importantly, would the Democrat Party allow it? Having an out-and-out socialist on the Democrat ticket with an unlikable shrill harpy does not seem like a winning combination.

Putting Bernie Sanders on her ticket would do “ZERO” good. The VP is the defender of the POTUS nominee. Sanders is far above that....he has, whether you like or agree with him or not, a major political movement....that Hillary Clinton could not fashion together in a million years. Bernie Sanders will never play second fiddle to Hillary Clinton!!! Plus, that ticket would not succeed, and would help destroy the current Democrat Party!!!

Trump can put anyone on the ticket because he's strong enough to win on his ow

n. Hillary doesn't have that luxury. She desperately needs a boost in a swing state with a big electoral vote haul. She'll choose a hispanic from Florida.

I hear Marco is out of work...

You could also say she’s won 6 out of the 8 most recent primaries.
