77%-22%

I haven't seen an ass whoopin like this since I tore the knobs off my mom's television set (I was young, having a temper tantrum, long story )

Regardless, she took a greater share of the black vote than Obama did in 08. I guess there's something to be said about standing by the president instead of calling him a failure and trying to primary him....

1. Damn she kicked some serious ass 55 per pts

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

2. 30% in, though. They are projecting upwards of 40 points. That would negate Bernie's NH win.

3. maybe if his supporters and volunteers had been nicer

it may have been a different story

6. Except that rather than working to obtain more of that vote, attempting to dip into HRC's

margins, they left the state and went to less diverse states to campaign instead.

That tells me that there is little attempt to work at getting more votes from non-white people.

That tells me that the campaign hasn't learned its lesson.

The Democratic Party is DIVERSE! But more important, they need to work to siphon off some minority voters.

I like what HRC said tonight after being criticized for staying in SC: Take NO vote for granted.

4. The fact that only Democrats vote in this primary has already negated Sanders' NH win

No Republicans to put anybody over the top in this one.

7. Yep! Great point!!

[BlueMTexpat]

9. +1! eom

[Cha]

10. Aha.. thank you, 23!

[1StrongBlackMan]

12. Well ... There IS that! eom.

5. "I haven't seen an ass whoopin like this since I tore the knobs off my mom's tv set"

You are too damn funny!!!!

I am really glad that you're posting in here.

8. We had to use pliers to change the channel after I did that. And I didn't sit down for a week.

Even better: that was a black & white tv, that was sitting on top of a non-working color tv. Those were the days. I really miss UHF television.

11. Edwards was from NC,

and was running left of the other candidates, too. So there were three popular choices. Looks like there was only one this time.

13. Bernie went far too negative. His campaign's biggest mistake.

There will be no recovery from this colossal landslide.

14. Oh they're trying

Anti-gay and anti-Obama Tulsi "Obama is weak" Gabbard, who once said this:



Just endorsed Sanders. And apparently this is a good thing. I mean they're giddy about this.

[oasis]

15. I wasn't aware Gabbard was anti-gay, I left the Islands

around ten years ago when the Dem leaders were Abercrombie, Hirono and the late senators Dan Inouye and Daniel Akaka. We lived in Hawaii for over 20 years and found the strongly Democratic state to be very accepting of every community.

16. The community itself is very tolerant

But she herself has made several statements about homosexual extremists

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/03/16/tulsi-gabbard-krishna-cult-rumors_n_6879588.html

The elder Gabbard, known for his virulent anti-gay crusade in the 1990s, was challenging Democratic incumbent Ed Case in the race to represent Hawaii’s 2nd Congressional District. So, for a profile piece, a writer at Honolulu Magazine emailed him and asked about his family’s ties to a guru named Chris Butler, aka Jagad Guru Siddhaswarupananda Paramahamsa, who leads an obscure offshoot of the Hare Krishna movement in Hawaii.

But Tulsi Gabbard jumped in. “I smell a skunk,” she emailed back. “It’s clear to me that you’re acting as a conduit for … homosexual extremist supporters of Ed Case.”

17. I campaigned for Ed Case when he ran for the late Patsy Mink's

Congressional seat. He was an okay Dem (DLC), but jumped the shark later in his career when he challenged longtime Senator Akaka for his seat in the U.S. senate.

18. i think Obama is the only one who could have beat her with this group

i can't think of even another black politician who could have done it. maybe there might be some who could have done better than Sanders. but i'm pretty sure she would still have a double digit lead.

19. and yet I saw someone call us

older Black people the problem. One person said that he hated us older black people, really?
