Senator Bernie Sanders routed Hillary Clinton in all three Democratic presidential contests on Saturday, infusing his underdog campaign with critical momentum and bolstering his argument that the race for the nomination is not a foregone conclusion.
Mr. Sanders found a welcome tableau in the largely white and liberal electorates of the Pacific Northwest, where just days after resoundingly beating Mrs. Clinton in Idaho he repeated the feat in the Washington caucuses, winning 73 percent of the vote. He did even better in Alaska, winning 82 percent of the vote, and in Hawaii, he had 71 percent with a few precincts still be counted, according to The Associated Press.
Washington, the largest prize Saturday with 101 delegates in play, was a vital state for Mr. Sanders, whose prospects of capturing the nomination dimmed after double-digit losses to Mrs. Clinton across the South and weak showings in delegate-rich Ohio, Florida and North Carolina this month. As of Saturday evening, Mrs. Clinton had roughly 280 more pledged delegates, who are awarded based on voting, and 440 more superdelegates party leaders and elected officials than Mr. Sanders.

disillusioned berniacs may not vote republican, but we can at least hope they just stay home.
Karl Marx HATED the middle class.
He wanted them DEAD.
He wanted their blood FLOWING in the streets.
You can NOT use Marx’s ideas to help the middle class.
But Bernie says we can if we just rename it.
And middle class Marxists all over the country just can’t wait to vote Bernie.
We are truly screwed. :(
Good points.
One tiny example of a Bernie voter planning to vote Trump is my democrat SIL who is anti Hillary. I doubt she is alone in wanting Hillary gone.
Actually Sanders is getting 17 delegates. The witch is getting the 8 super delegates.
Hillary is getting screwed more than her husband’s intern, and I’m not at all surprised. She’s utterly unexciting - even to the feminists I’ve eavesdropped on. A has-been ‘me too’ candidate’ so dull that even voting for her against Trump is unappealing!
The best thing Trump could do is find the GOldman Sachs transcripts and release them... Hillary yucking it up with the wall street fat cats will send the Bernie supporters into a tail spin and subsequently destroy the Rat party... There are many things they would forgive for unity sake but showing those transcripts will prove that Bernie got robbed of the nomination and they will revolt...
So FReepers, what if Hillary chooses Bernie as her VP to unify the RAT party?
Bernis wins Alaska? How many stupid white kids do they have in Alaska? Bernie seems to run out of steam when he runs out of his niche vote strength of stupid white kids.
=RINO
Good post! I agree. I will likely vote 3rd party before I will vote for someone that I do not like.
/snark
That is what we hope they do—stay home.
All the demoncRATs look like they are about to get a visit from the Grim Reaper. Bill, Hillary and Bernie all look terrible. You gotta wonder if any of them will be alive when the demoncRATs have their convention.
Funny thing is, Wikipedia 2016 pages does not show pop vote for the Rats, only for the GOP. 2008 shows Hillary pop vote beat Obama, which is true

Yup, that is big problem. She will win just because she is a Democrat. Her corruption wont matter to a majority of the electorate.
I believe that some BS people will sit out November 8, but most will line up dutifully behind the popular Mrs. Bill.
Ultimately, I suspect there will be no change at all, but Mrs. Bill as the status quo preference of the American people.
You’ve been misled: the American people adore Mrs. Bill and really want Mr. Bill back in charge.
They will be alive, and so will their legion of supporters.
