Dem Primary PreMature Call: NBC sinks Hillary in CA Primary Election

[JoeOtterbein]

Now all Hillary supporters in tomorrow's election can stay home. She is already the "presumptive" nominee according to those who know much about math. If you know about prose, you know the new look at politics has just begun. Thanks to those much younger than myself (60) the future is secured. The young voters are the future. They will vote in CA, and beyond. For years to come.

The future voters will decide we did what was right for America. Go CA and the other 4 states!

[MariaThinks]

1. Good point. If Hillary doesn't win CA tomorrow it is because her supporters stayed home

[JoeOtterbein]

2. Thanks Maria!

[CorporatistNation]

16. TOTAL PILE OF BULLSHIT! NBC KNEW SHE WAS GOING TO LOSE... So They're Providing Her An EXCUSE!

"Oh... I already won last night... CALIFORNIA DOESN'T MATTER!!! "

BALONEY! SHE'S LOSING BIGGGGGG
TOMORROW AND THIS IS JUST TO GIVE HER A "LIFELINE"

[MariaThinks]

21. Like she has lost all along right? You live in a fantasy land

[CorporatistNation]

23. CHEATING IS NOT WINNING! EVER PLAY GOLF?

)))))))))

[TwilightZone]

24. NBC didn't call it. The AP did.

[snagglepuss]

30. Exactly and notice how quickly posts appeared moaning how Hillary didn't want this.

This does 3 things. 1 - as you point an excuse for doing badly 2 - an attempt to discourage Sanders voters and 3 - position her as a victim of media not its beneficiary.

[Lord Magus]

32. Sure, they knew she was going to lose. Based on literally every poll showing her winning. -nt-

[Fast Walker 52]

40. good point... probably something like that

[KingFlorez]

3. Most Clinton voters vote early

We have vote by mail here in California and so far it's independents that trail far behind in overall ballot return. It's Sanders people who wait until election day to vote.

[JoeOtterbein]

8. CA will vote, no matter who "wins"

[Adrahil]

4. OTOH it might suppress Sanders turnout

After all, what's the point?

And folks might still be anxious to vote for Hillary, since her nomination is historic. I know I am proud to have been part of that history.

[JoeOtterbein]

6. History starts today, you just might be wrong about tomorrow.

[MinnesotaRob]

10. Sanders supporters don't largely rely on the MSM for their "news".

The MSM is saying it's over, the internet is saying otherwise.

[JoeOtterbein]

11. The future is ours, the "news" is the past

[Adrahil]

28. Yeah....

Like creationists don't rely on "scientists" for science.

But believe what you want. This is over. Finally.

[passiveporcupine]

13. You hope right?

So, it's OK to play games like this to change the voter turnout?

[JoeOtterbein]

17. Great point!

[Adrahil]

31. The numbers are what they are.

But it doesn't matter at this point. HRC will garner even ore delegates to,oreow and Bernie will still lose, whatever the outcome.

[passiveporcupine]

34. Bet you are a blast at a little kids game with the three-legged race

Yelling winner winner winner to your kid who is in the lead but only one foot from the start line.

there is a thing called a gracious winner and a gracious loser, but that can't happen till the end of the race.

[Adrahil]

37. Sure, you can pretend whatever you like. NT

[CorporatistNation]

19. You Have A Distorted Perspective On WHAT Is Truly HISTORIC!

e.g., MSNBC To the deniers... Watch THIS Video... It is not comforting to think that she may well be the Democratic Nominee...

Hillary really betrayed Andrea Mitchell... The entire context of this report was of a solemn nature... A Funeral so to speak...

Andrea Mitchell "I do not see this report as ...ANYTHING BUT... DEVASTATING!"

Chuck Todd "After this I don't think that she could get confirmed for Attorney General!"

Lots of FIBBING by Hillary here.. for more than a year!

[snagglepuss]

33. Proud of someone who is the first person to cash in before taking office?

[chillfactor]

5. Hillary does not need California....

to win the nomination.....NJ alone will do it for her.

[JoeOtterbein]

7. She might win the math, and lose CA and history

[LonePirate]

29. Obama lost CA to Clinton in 2008. Did he lose history?

[passiveporcupine]

15. no, you don't get to count the supers yet

But even NJ doesn't vote till tomorrow. This was fucking stupid.

[Fresh_Start]

9. Democrats will still show up and vote

if for no other reason that there are other races in the primary

[Meteor Man]

12. Since Chris Matthews is the new Walter Cronkite

AP really should have waited until The Chris Matthews Official Coronation Announcement tomorrow night. It's not over until Chris Matthews gives his Seal of Media Approval announcement.

[JoeOtterbein]

14. I watched Matthews and saw him attacking Berine, I saw CNN attacking Trump, so who did I watch?

DUH!

[Meteor Man]

20. Just ignore the Cheney News Network

Chris Matthews is the new voice for a new generation. In Chris Matthews we trust.

[Starry Messenger]

18. Supporters of either candidate should still vote, there are many things on the ballot.

State senate primary is very important, and there are some Props.

[TwilightZone]

22. NBC didn't call it. The AP did. As for the "other 4 states", it's actually five.

Here, I'll let Hillary tell you:

https://twitter.com/HillaryClinton/status/739983730002022400

[JoeOtterbein]

25. Sorry 5, what is your point? More states disenfranchised?

Sad.

[TwilightZone]

26. My point was that you based your entire post on false information.

Your underlying assertion is false - the AP called it, not NBC - so, the rest of your post is nonsense.

Have a nice evening.

[Lord Magus]

35. Was half the nation "disenfranchised" in 2000 primary becuase Gore won too quickly? -nt-

[Adrahil]

36. For fuck's sake, no one is disenfranchised.

They can go out there and vote tomorrow. Nothing has changed. Their delegates still count. But Sanders has been doomed for more than a month either way.

[passiveporcupine]

38. I have heard this before

an exact quote from earlier this season. Don't you guys get any new lines?

[Adrahil]

39. Well, it's true. If people don't vote...

Because of this, that is their own stupid decision.

[Hiraeth]

27. I hope it backfires and energizes Bernies voters.
