At this critical time in our nation, we need another FDR. And Bernie is just that.
I agree that Hillary will win Connecticut. But Connecticut only has 55 delegates. New York has 291, California has 475, and Pennsylvania has 189. Even a 55-45 win for Bernie and he would gain a nice chunk.

I just don't get it though. Whenever I'm on 91 I see tons of Bernie stickers all the time.

I believe Bernie will lose Maryland, Connecticut, and Delaware. Those states are smaller and have a higher amount of people in the top 1%. And you know why the top 1% won't vote for Bernie. In Massachusetts Bernie swept the blue collar areas but lost Boston because Boston is full of the top 1%.

I believe Bernie will upset in New York and Pennsylvania. Outside of NYC and Philly, NY and PA all fit Bernie's demographics. Look what happened in Vermont and New Hampshire, and even Michigan to a degree.

Bernie will get destroyed in NY. And Maryland, Connecticut, and Delaware.

Plus HC has the superdelegates. Sanders has virtually no shot at the nomination.

I'm not a big of fan of Bernie nor Hillary but if I had to choose who I wanted to win, I'd choose Bernie. Clinton is a liar and is being investigated by the FBI. She is not fit to be president IMO but a majority of this country is already familiar with the Clinton family so they'll give them a second shot. Our country had a bad bunch of presidential candidates this time around. America loses again if the only people we choose for the general election are a psychological moron and a fraud. We deserve better. With that being said, I honestly think Clinton is going to win and I agree that Bernie has no shot.

I abhor all pols, but Bernie's anti-semitism (rewriting GAZA), and his staunch support of the NRA extremist position will rush his already certain demise in the primaries.

Indeed, he gave a Senate speech in 1994 in which he basically described himself as a self-hating Jew and was quite proud of it to boot.

There's nothing more vile, disgusting or abhorrent than someone accusing a person who disagrees with actions of the Israeli state of automatically being an anti-semite.
