1. "how does she go forward?" Machine politics and money

It's all about $$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Original Title of Thread - Freudian slip? Ha, Ha

"If Bernie can't win a primary in his home state, how does she go forward?"

2. By waiting for the vote count to show the polls were wrong, again.

5. ...and again...and again.....

3. Bookmarked

4. Bookmark me: Bernie is taking New York

I literally have zero doubt over that.

6. Well the DNC better

schedule a debate in NY so to make sure Hillary does not lose her advantage.....oh wait I forgot she does not want to debate here in NY, my bad

7. He kinda already did with 86.1%

Vermont. *drops mic*

10. Shhhh!

They don't appear to be aware of that.

19. So you agree that associating Illinois with being Hillary's "home state" is foolish. Many thanks.

[AgingAmerican]

20. It's where she grew up

It's her home state just as New York is Sanders home state.

22. Hillary Clinton was born in Chicago...

If I were you I'd be worried about whether she is going to win her home state since home states seem to mean so much to you.

[NWCorona]

17. That was brutal to be kept under the 15% threshold

[AgerolanAmerican]

8. NY primary 4/19

Over a month away... and as we've seen, Clinton can drop a 20 point lead virtually overnight.

9. So if Bernie

As the Senator from Vermont doesn't win against the Senator from New York there's a problem. Bernie was born and raised in New York but has represented Vermont since back in the 60's. Clinton represented New York since 2000 as a senator so I suppose she might be better known there since her "service" was more recent. Don't think I believe she will win New York, I'm just saying that if she does it will be more due to name recognition than anything else.

11. Why Did the Author Change the Title of This Thread? The Original Title Was GREAT

"If Bernie can't win a primary in his home state, how does she go forward?"

Inquiring minds want to know ?

12. It was dead serious when Gore

could not hold TN in 2000.

[Bjorn Against]

14. Bernie has overcome 21 point leads before

I don't quite understand why you think that 40 point lead in the Quinnipiac poll from last summer is relevant, although I guess it does show Bernie has already cut Hillary's lead in half.

15. What next? Pointing out that NY borders VT?

Hey, from Burlington, his home town, he really can see NY. It is right there across Lake Chsmplain. Residents there look at NY very often - especially at sunset.

[B Calm]

16. Bernie already won his home state by over 86%

18. This thread was a sarcastic response to a conversation in another thread.

21. Looks to me like a lead that's been cut in half ...

and will tighten between now and the NY primary.
