Another loss for her.

It’d be neck and neck but for the super delegates she’s bought and paid for.

LOL! The Demoncrats dug up some loser named Bernie to run against her—like a scrub club fighter to fight a name brand—just as a show and sell tickets.

They didn’t plan the scrubber to fight back and make a match of it.

I should pay more attention to what the democrats are up to. Who would be worse as president - Hillary or Bernie? But worse, what will it say about Americans if Bernie gets elected?

“Well - I voted for Bernie because obama was too far to the right and didn’t do a lot of stuff that we wanted like free health care and college and stuff like that.”

Is Hillary abandoning Wisconsin to Bernie?

On a personal note, I haven’t seen one Hillary sign, but I’ve seen a sprinkling of Bernie sigs in this heavily Republican County.

FReep mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.

New York’s 247 delegates is the biggest prize left in the Democratic contest except for California. Polling has Mrs. Clinton up 30 percentage points over Mr. Sanders. Mrs. Clinton and her husband have 11 planned events there between now and April 2, according to her calendar.

All those events suggest that Team Cankles knows that 30 point lead is evaporating quickly.

Mrs. Clinton has no plans

She better make plans for her trip to Levenworth.

Bernie and Hillary are both far far left socialistic quasi-commies.
But Bernie has appeared relatively honest whereas Hillary is... well, Hillary.

The D party voters are split between really liking Bernie and wishing for another candidate (but its probably too late for that). Almost no D’s want old Hillary the Liar.

SO... my bet right now is.... prepare thyselfs for a most interesting campaign between (what I think are basically two leftists, one practical and the other not) Donald vs the Bern.

Whatever else any of us may think, THAT’s a race that will at least provide us some entertainment.

The establishments of both “ parties ( in essence a uniparty ) , both of whom are tied to Wall Street , the banks , the Chamber Of Commerce , to big business and special interests , are rigging the election vis a vis a brokered convention on the R side and the superdelegates on the D side . What a country ...

The Hildebeast is heading to her adopted state of New York.

She needs time to line up all the loyal Vote-For-Pay democrats and to resurrect enough dead voters to win the contest.

Here is his latest headline:

The Bern! is outspending the criminal 10-to-1 in Wisconsin. She could get crushed.

But the same idiots that voted carpetbagging Hillary! to the Senate in 2000 while she was stealing the White House china, will give her a very comfortable margin of victory in NY on April 19.

I hate Bernie, but I’d be lying if I didn’t confess a guilty pleasure in seeing him catch up to Hillary.

I want her to be REJECTED by the American people, and then CONVICTED in (what is left of) our legal system.

In Wisconsin, Hillary is at 45% to Bernies 49%.

Maybe she’s trying to get a head start on Bernie in New York? Both Wisconsin and New York award delegates proportionately. However, Wisconsin only has 96 delegates to New York’s 291, and New York has a %15 threshold, with Bernie currently at 23%.

Maybe Hillary is trying to get a head start on Bernie in New York, in order to push him below the 15% threshold, and capture all of New York’s delegates. If she can do that, she gets the 66 delegates that Bernie would have gotten at 23%.

So she skips campaigning in Wisconsin, and her and Bernie more or less split the state’s delegates. She’s not going to lose Wisconsin so badly that she loses the 66 delegates that she stands to gain in New York.

If I were in her pants-suit, I’d do the same.

This is pretty significant news. When factoring out super delegates (who can change their mind at any time), and counting just "earned" (won) delegates, Shrillary's lead over Bernie actually stands at less than that of Trump over Cruz. The margin is even tighter when you consider that there are almost twice as many delegates on the Democrat side.

Everybody just assumes that the super delegates are overwhelmingly in her camp so they add those into her column, artificially inflating her lead.

Well you only have to go back to 2008 to see where super delegates moved en mass to another candidate late in the process.

In 2008, it was once again Shrillary Clinton who was the presumptive nominee. Even when Obama started winning primary after primary, Shrillary felt secure that her super delegates would never desert her and she harbored the false notion that even if Obama beat her on "earned" delegates, she would have the super delegates in her pocket that would ultimately secure her the nomination.

It was not until the end of May, yes MAY, that super delegates started switching over to Obama. That's because through April and May, Shrillary was still winning primaries in places like PA, WV and KY and so stayed within striking distance of Obama due to her super delegates.

It took until June 7th (I just looked it up) before Shrillary finally conceded the nomination to Obama. By that time, most of her super delegates had bailed, making her nomination an impossibility.

Not saying that Bernie will duplicate what Obama did, but should be pick up Wisconsin, he will be close to even with Shrillary in earned delegates and on the verge of passing her.

I do not think New York is a given for Shrillary. Bernie's momentum is building in New York day by day.

Bernie may win the same way Willie won in’92. Nobody else wanted to run against an “unbeatable” candidate. I’d bet a lot of senior RATS are kicking themselves for not getting in.

Lots of reds and real reds in Wisconsin, esp. Madison, so this shows the scope of the internal threat to our country by them.

Sanders supporters are hardcore commies, Marxists, Democratic Socialists, progressives and liberal leftists, just like those supporting covert commie Hillary.

There is a “Red Tide Rising” in Wisconsin and Minnesota so conservatives need to get really organized there ASAP.
