... I can't figure out what his supporters are so excited about. Surely they don't TRULY believe that he's going to win the nomination. I think it's all just smack-talk.

Bosnia snipers and other rehashed OP's

The o Es I think are the most desperate are the questions to Hillary supporters.

are really Republicans here to stir up stuff and also Libertarians. A lot of people who like to think they are representing the Green Party. I think a lot of the "normal" Sanders supporters have left or are not around much.

Seems it was just the opposite opposite situation for Hill in '08, although it was a much tighter race.

She came back in Florida and then her lead disappeared the following week with the 22 states Super Tuesday Primaries.

No one expected Clinton to stay behind after that, even that early. And she proved them right.

He usually has an extraordinary boost in donations right after a primary...and brags about how much they've raised ~

I wonder if after NY, Rove, the NRA and other "ratf*cking" republicans see that they're throwing good money after bad, they can't get their dream candidate and they stop supporting his run.

It will be telling, I believe to see if his fundraising drops and just how dramatically it does.

Bernie said momentum meant something and there was the bird sent to deliver the pope's invitation.


(Tad Devine tried his best to walk back Bernie's predictions of a major victory on Hardball tonight. They're definitely feeling the heat.)
