Guys sorry if you FEEL THE BERN and would be dissappointed when Bernie loses
but I think we've already seen the proverbial "high water mark" in the Sanders
campaign.
I don't see Bernie winning any more than a few states. Hillary will win SC
and I really like her chances in Nevada. She is only a small favorite with
Hillary (-140) and Sanders (100) his line was higher before.
Sharp politicals know, however, that Harry Reid and his son and all their
connections are big league in the Nevada Democratic power structure
and by hook or crook, will SHILL FOR HILL.
After an easy trip through Super Tuesday, the race will end...
Hillary plus the Supers will be enough to lock down the nomination.
Sanders will still likely win a few states (Mass, VT, Minny perhaps) and exit the
race while being allowed to "shape the platform" (lol to that).


RE: FBI investigation, it's getting late. My sources indicated that this
should be done no later than mid-March and if Hillary wasn't formally
indicted by then (I posted in November) then for myriad reasons
it wasn't going to happen. It's just way too political with Obama now
rumored to nominate Loretta Lynch for SCOTUS (zero chance of confirmation).
The Justice Dept and DC environment is totally in war along party lines with no impartiality
anywhere. Obama will defend Hillary for political reasons.

Good, I hope so. Bernie is too weak to attack Hillary; Trump will do this just fine.

will Hillary win the nomination? Of course most likely, but I never say never. As far as NV goes that could be a different story; NV is a strange state when it comes to how they vote.

Because she knows where the bodies are buried, figuratively speaking?

I want Bernie to hang on longer. I want his voters ticked off because they think the system is rigged for her to win. It has to be fairly fresh in their mind for the general election so that they stay home (students) or the blue collar workers supporting him, jump to Trump if he's the Republican nominee.

Primarily because there is not enough impartiality in the Obama Administration
and all the political appointments its made in 7 years. FBI can only recommend
indictment, they can't move the needle on legal interpretation or enforcement.

Hillary is the stronger candidate for Democrats. It will be over on March 15.

Are you suggesting something's wrong with that? Do you think union members shouldn't be encouraged to vote? The Democratic party is historically the party of union members, and both Sanders and Clinton heavily court them.

No. The Culinary Workers Unions did not endorse either candidate.
