Bernie Sanders
Related: About this forumDon't be discouraged by the results of what someone called Stupid Tuesday.
Most of those states are in the old Confederacy and won't be voting for a Democrat in the general election anyway. Going forward we need to get the vote out for Bernie because every vote for Hillary from here on out is a vote for Donald Trump.
Hillary can't win the general election. All the talk about needing someone who is practical and has experience is coming out of her camp and being spread by the corporate lobbyists to make you believe that only starry eyed, idealists would vote for a socialist like Bernie.
Clinton vs Trump would be one of the dirtiest campaigns ever run. All of the Clinton's dirty laundry plus more that would be dirtied and stained for her would be dragged out for the world to see and told over and over, the Big Lie written large. No amount of damage control or dragging out of Trump's dirty laundry will change that damage once it's done. We saw it with Kerry.

Hillary will not hold up; she will drop out early due to 'health issues.'

(5,621 posts)Probably 90% of the people who voted had not even heard of Bernie a year ago, but they've known Hillary for 25 years. Big, big kudos to Bernie and his supporters for getting Bernie's platform out there.
This primary has always been Hillary's to lose. She has the DNC, the MSM and dirty tricks trying to make her the nominee. but Bernie only has himself and his supporters to back him.
Any way you look at it, these states are a HUGE win.
