They win the most votes by the people. However, the RNC and DNC don't pick them. What happens next?

Sanders is behind Clinton in every major poll. There's no way at this point he will win the nomination based on these poll results. Huffington has a pretty good poll tracking tool:

Sanders is not going to win the vote count. Trump may get a plurality, but he won't have enough for the nomination. Let the fun begin!

I still can't wrap myself around the idea of Trump winning the nomination. It could very well happen, but I just can't see it, I think it'll be Cruz/Clinton.

Bernie will probably win the nomination, as will Trump. Then, Bernie will crush Trump in the general election.

If Hillary was that unbeatable, she should be leading in the polls in New Hampshire, which she isn't.

Cruz is a religious fundamentalist. He won't be nominated.

I can see Sanders winning both New Hampshire and Iowa, and with those two down, Nevada is likely to go for Sanders as well. With 3 out of the first 4 states going to Sanders, I think Hillary will have a huge uphill battle to get the nomination and Sanders will get it.

Yeah but can the RNC and DNC say screw it and pick their own candiates? Can they do that?

I dont think the DNC will dare to do it, but who knows what the DNC chair Wasserman Schultz will do. She has been brown nosing Hillary for years now and is as pathetic as its possible to get. There would be an uprising if it were to happen.

I agree with you, but I am more inclined to lean toward Rubio. I think Cruz is just too evangelical and not popular enough with the middle of the roaders. I would support either. The only Republican I would not support: of course I do not consider him a real R. is Trump.
