(1,442 posts)a concession I read here, LOL...
the 'rate' he's winning was blown outta the water this past weekend so there is that, hence the 'concession' in the HRC supporters reply here
HRC supporters are scared and this is just one reply that 'notes' that...

Guess which candidate, between Clinton and Sanders, has yet to win a single closed primary? I'll give you a hint: it's not Clinton.

(1,442 posts)22 primaries left to cast their ballots
again, I'm not worried, since that's 22 more times I get excited about Bernie's chances to win with a candidate that's continually increasing his #'s month by month both delegate and supporters

(11,014 posts)There are only three non-diverse states with caucuses and hardly any "open" primaries where outsiders can cause mischief.
It is CLOSED primary time baby.

(13,218 posts)Like the daily temperature. It increases, it decreases. But nevertheless large scale patterns can apply. Would you you car to guess what that would be for Hillary versus Sanders?

(2,353 posts)Too bad the "fringe" candidate has exceeded all expectations and is continuing to outraise Clinton despite a ~230 delegate lead still remaining to overcome. This ain't over till the final voter casts their ballot in Washington DC.
Remember she even had to break the seal on her General Election only SuperPAC, and had organizations that should be supporting both candidates pouring lots of money into these contests.
