2016 Postmortem
Showing Original Post only (View all)At this moment what do you think Bernies chances of winning the nomination are? [View all]
I'm a Sanders supporter but a bit of a realist.
I think his chances of winning the nomination are pretty good.
50% if Biden runs and splits the "not as bad" vote.
40% if Biden doesn't run.
As is always the case in politics things can change rapidly through happenstance, revelations, misstatements, Faux-pas, or bad luck.
As another poster said, I think this election is going be far more entertaining than the usual Politics-as-usual charade.

OP
I wouldn't predict until after the first debate. Who knows, O'Malley could do such a great job

OK, I don't have any evidence to predict now, only feelings and that seems like a stupid basis

Yes. It's so important to stress that Bernie's support is overwhelmingly positive

25% chance of winning IA; 40% chance of winning NH; 10% chance of winning SC; downhill from there

100% sure hell win, but voted 90% due to the establishments Diebold advantage.

Marginally better than Andre Berto's chances of upsetting Floyd Mayweather this Saturday.
