2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumHillary lost the last 7 out of 8 contests. The only one she won was Arizona which is in the hands of
the DOJ at this very moment.
I know - math.
But what kind of message is it when you lose one contest after another after another after another?

(68,868 posts)DOJ has nothing to do with the final results--final results--in AZ.
Good luck in New York.

(481 posts)He was expected to have won Wisconsin. New York is the big player and I think his momentum stops there and we will see if the Sanders supporters would stop living in fantasy land.

(14,459 posts)If she ever gets to the point of "Not," then she's done something horribly wrong...actually, there were some things last week, come to think of it...
Hydra
(14,459 posts)They had a certain amount of lead to run on, but this is stretching it now, especially with retroactively losing NV and probably other places later.
A good showing in NY could possibly be a deathblow at this point- I saw her on TV using the 2.5 million voters thing like her team here. It struck me as more than a little desperate- she couldn't claim anything she was currently doing or working on to fix that, only that she still had her early lead.
That's a bad hedge where CA is concerned...

(19,926 posts)His answer was "because she is winning". Doesn't get more empty than that. All she and her followers care about is winning. Substance does not matter.

Major Hogwash
(17,656 posts)She didn't even run any ads in Idaho.
None!
None on tv and none on the radio.
There were a few radio spots that Bernie did, and he also ran 2 ads on tv that were pretty good.
But, Hillary didn't even try here.
Bernie made 2 campaign stops in the state and held huge rallys.
Hillary didn't even bother to come here.
So, I think she ran out of gas.
Maybe she realized it just isn't worth it anymore.

(3,017 posts)Hillary had fundraisers all through March, Bernie had none, yet Bernie raised $44 million in March versus $29.5 million for Hillary.
