2008 all over again?

[bbrady42]

Some of the details are different, but this whole primary feels just like 2008 to me.

- Heading into spring one candidate has a likely insurmountable delegate lead.
- The other candidate and supporters refuse to accept this.
- The other candidate wins primaries, but doesn't close the delegate gap in a meaningful way
- The media starts saying things like, "Why can't he put her away," and "Why can't he seal the deal?"
- "He'll get destroyed in the general."
- All the PUMA crap.

Sound familiar?

1. But New York and California were not among the last states to vote.

So not like 2008 all over again.

2. what's your prediction for NY-PA-MD?

4. Also, Obama started out as the underdog

So I feel like questions about why he hadn't put her away were silly, since she started out as the "inevitable" frontrunner.

3. I think Bernie is closing the gap in a very meaningful way.

And I think that putting you on the ignore list is probably the best move.

Bye!

5. I concur!

6. This isn't quite 2008.

Betnie isn't Barack, and even Hillary ain't Hillary anymore.

I don't see any cause for alarm, though. So what if the primary isn't over until it's over?
