mhatrw says “it’s over” if Sanders beats Clinton in New York

If Sanders can just beat Clinton in New York, that will put him on a nine state winning streak (if you include the fact that he is now going to win Nevada). His momentum will then be unstoppable, and Clinton will need to summon every dirty trick in the DNC's playbook just to win in Kentucky and Maryland.

The only thing that will stop her is proof of the Clinton Foundation Pay to Play via the emails or if the Clintons are involved with the Panama Leaks.

Sanders needs "YUUUGEE" wins. I just don't see that happening in NY or KY or MD.
This is Hillary's nomination, sadly.

it really will be over for her but she won't concede defeat. This will go on through June 7.

Keep in mind they've been completely disdainful from day one, assuring us all he'd only win one state, New Hampshire, and maybe not even that. Then after Super Tuesday they said it was all over and he should quit. And then Michigan didn't really count, nor did Washington, Alaska, or Hawaii.

And if he doesn't get at least 60% in Wisconsin, they'll assure us, he's still toast.

Wrong, wrong, wrong.

Oh, and if Bernie wins, all the MSM will lead with the fact that Hillary has an "insurmountable" lead in delegates.

The momentum alone belongs to Bernie.

He will win New York with a comfortable margin of 12% over Clinton, beating estimates by miles. The Bern Express will continue, nonstop until November!
