I'm sick and tired of reading what if the rules were this or what if the rules were that. The fact is the rules said Michigan and Florida wouldn't count. The fact is the rules said proportional delegates. The fact is we don't have an electoral college system in the primaries. Going back and saying well if the rules were only different my candidate would be ahead by blank is stupid. If those were the rules than the candidates would have run their campaigns differently from the start. They ran on the rules they knew going into this and tailored their strategy that way. Trying to rewrite the rules right now in support of the Senator from NY is stupid. You don't rewrite rules after the game is begun because your losing.
If the popular vote counted in 2000 Al Gore would have been President (and if the USSC wasn't a shill for the right) however the electoral college was the rules.

The Nominee, whoever that is, will pay for it in the long run.
