If it keeps up like this she is going to win by 50%, 3:1. That makes it clear that Bernie has no traction among blacks and therefore no chance to win the nomination. Time to go home.

On the other hand, the black demographic is not important in a general election as 95% vote democrat, unlike Bernie's strong groups which are anyone under 40 and the white working class and independents. These are the important groups in a general election.

Yepp. As long as they don't get complacent. With Trump, though, Dems are going to turn out in record numbers to keep that fool out of the White House.

Real tough night for Bernie if anything close to the current margin holds. This was expected to be a big win for Clinton, but the margin as it stands now blows out of the water the expectations. The expectation game is certainly big for momentum. Momentum is certainly on Clinton's side even more so now, Bernie will likely need to win at least 5 of the Super Tuesday states, and needs some significant margins in more than just his home state.

Trump, cruz, rubio, it doesn't really matter. The democrats are going to come out in force. The republicans brought this on themselves.
