MN:+23.2% vs NH:+22.4%

[Nyan]

I just realized, he won MN by even bigger margin than NH.

So, what happened to "NH is Bernie's backyard. Of course he'll win by default" and "he won't have any strength going forward in other states" bullshit meme?

I'm having an MSM blackout in my house. So, will anybody please tell me whether or not the "pundits" are retracting that talking point?
If NH was supposed to be so favorable to Bernie because of proximity to VT, then what the fuck was up with Minnesota? I thought NH was supposed to be a fluke? I guess CO, OK was a lucky fluke as well, and MA was also a damn-near lucky fluke.

Well, we might as well continue with many instances of "lucky fluke" all the way to the convention.

1. Yup, NH is now only his 3rd best state

All 5 of the states he won were by double digits.

[Depaysement]

2. You didn't get the new private tweet

Bernie Sanders can only win "white" states. Black is the new orange.

[Helen Borg]

3. Soon it will be: Bernie can only win American states.

[reformist2]

4. Good point. The fact is Bernie has won 5 states and virtually tied in 2 more. He's doing great!

[hack89]

11. And how far behind in delegates is he right now? Nt

[Enthusiast]

5. Kicked and recommended!

6. Bernie will only win one state - Vermont

Bernie will only win one state on Super Tuesday

It's fun to watch

8. Reminds me of all the predictions about Sanders' 'ceiling' of support.

All the wonderful early days when Clinton supporters were saying he'd be another Kucinich, get maybe 5-10% support. And how they slowly, grudgingly, upped their numbers to 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%... Seems like after 30% they just gave up on that particular form of dismissiveness.

9. "Nate Silver has lost his mind" -Cenk Uygur-

[reformist2]

15. No he hasn't. He's cashed in & sold out. His followers just don't realize it yet.

[mythology]

17. And yet he's called almost all of the states correctly so far

It's almost like he knows what he's doing even if people who don't like to denigrate him. The idiots at unskewthepolls.com also thought they knew better. It's embarrassing how many people here refuse to understand statistics and polling.

[reformist2]

18. We ALL could have predicted most of the states correctly, because we all saw the polls.

The obsession with Nate is idiotic.

[DCBob]

7. Perhaps because he got slaughtered in 7 other states on the same day.

[MisterP]

10. well, uh, they're close to Canada! yeah!

[MaggieD]

12. Too bad they didn't come with many delegates

.... Huh?

[GreatGazoo]

13. Much of the TV analysis muddies cause and effect

They invert it to talk as if people decide who to vote for based on who's "backyard" they are in. (or because of their own gender or race).

The media treats us all like mindless numbers. All of us.

14. MSM Has Been Blocked In My House For A VERY Long Time...

Just wish we had enough power to for a massive Boycott of their one-sided point of view!

Just as subliminal messages can influence the way you think, this CONSTANT Trump VS Hillary in the GE has enormous power because the implication that's reinforced in this way will KEEP people from voting.

Just as the theory of "if you repeat a lie over and over" people think it's truth so when the truth is presented to them, they deny it.

I DO NOT watch MSM anymore, I actually get a broader and diverse amount of information from places like FSTV, RT and many other streaming channels through ROKU!

Recently someone attacked me for watching RT (America) as Russian bias! They would do well to open their minds to the fact that this channel isn't simply devoted to pumping up certain candidates. And, it also covers many more issues such as economics, trade policies and a lot about what Obama, Congress Critters are up to that DOESN'T get reported.

And for comedy, Lee Camp REALLY IS the John Oliver on RT!

Being open minded by listening to a variety of subjects prevents one from getting BRAIN WASHED! There is so much coverage of what our policies have done to destroy the economies of so many other countries! Talking WITH the people in other countries and hearing in their own words what we've done has helped me see MORE CLEARLY how the powerful here in America have helped destroy our climate and promote WAR in a way that should make you ashamed!

16. It's the subtle brainwashing of demoralization.
