Hillary Clinton became the first woman to capture the presidential nomination of one of the countrys major political parties on Monday night, according to an Associated Press survey of Democratic superdelegates, securing enough of them to overcome a bruising challenge from Senator Bernie Sanders and turn to a brutal five-month campaign against Donald J. Trump.

Bernie and his folks are not amused at the slight jumping of the gun to help Hillary - expect them to make appearances at her functions from here on out....
This is to blunt the blow of losing California. And what about that FBI interview? Has that happened yet? Just askin.
Bernie knows and all the dems that are not hillary sycophants know that hillary would lose to a worn out boot at this point. She is seen as tone deaf and a yuge lesbility to the democrat party and can even harm as to surpress the state races.
Bernie, even if he loses he loses by a far smaller margin against trump and even a bernie loss against trump would mean Trump may have to fight dem controlled houses.
Too many of the top dem party people are hillarys sycophants and this is why she is being annointed by the media and party bosses who are in command.
If hillary and bernie were on an even “media footing” sanders would have had it IN THE BAG BY NOW, but the dems only attack against bernie MUST be APATHY, if they fight him directly he becomes strong like trump has and THEY KNOW IT.
Typical Clintoon Criminal move.
Make this announcement before the California primary to keep Sander’s voters from voting. The announcement was based on a survey apparently not an official count of delegates.
Hillary stood by Bill in ‘92 and helped him win. She lost to Obama in ‘08 and stood by him through two terms. She’s paid her dues and now they owe her.
Hence, the 523 ‘superdelegates’ gift.
This is a bit similar to Dole in 1996. They gave him the nomination because of his long service to the country and it was time to pay him back. Of course it was disastrous for the GOP, but that was a time when the economy was doing well with Bill Clinton moving towards the center somewhat, so maybe no Republican would have won anyway.
Good point. Trump maybe should play this up?
He will after tonight’s returns.
So now that she’s won (been handed) the prize, when is the FBI going to ask for indictments against her?
WHYINHELL IS BEING A WOMAN QUALIFYING?
