Hillary Clinton
Related: About this forumFiveThirtyEight now has a projection for Louisiana.
Clinton 75.0, Sanders 17.9. Clinton has a greater than 99% chance of winning.
If this percentage holds, Hillary should get about 38 of Louisiana's 51 delegates. Her target is 33.

(42,862 posts)This thing is as good as over. Bernie will not be the nominee. His "promise" to take it all the way to the convention floor will not help him, nor will it help the party, nor will it help to defeat the GOP.
I hopeful that he and his supporters will accept REALITY sooner rather than later.

(1,968 posts)It's not helping him, or to defeat the GOP, but I don't see that it's overly harming the eventual race anyway. We'll tie a bow on this by June.
Right now, the rhetoric from his campaign is the "keep fighting" line. Next Tuesday, after he might win three to her much larger states, more likely to be blowout elections three, the rhetoric will be the same.
Post March 15th? At that point I expect we'll start seeing it change.

(1,968 posts)if he did shift his message, but...well, he's given no indication that he's going to, or that he actually does support Democrats. Quite the opposite.
