I believe that Bernie Sanders may actually get the most pledged delegates or dang close. Then it will be embarrassing to the DNC to see how the party steals it from him. He may think that he can parlay that into some kind of higher position.

I think he will wait to California before withdrawing and endorsing Clinton, despite earlier comments about fighting it out on the floor (which isn't really possible) I think he'll do the 'responsible' thing and endorse Clinton just before the convention, similar to what Clinton did when she ran against Obama. Thoughts?
How do you think he would achieve that? He would need an extraordinary turn of fortune and even that is probably an understatement.
An indictment would be an extraordinary turn of events, no?

Given recent events and the likelihood of significant Clinton wins in the upcoming states I thought I'd open a poll for people to place their bets on when Senator Sanders will withdraw from the race.

...how? The next few states all favor Hillary. And she is almost 300 pledged delegates ahead of Bernie already. Combine those facts with the fact that Democrats reward pledged delegates proportionally, Bernie would have to win roughly 65-35 from here on out in order to pass her.

let's face it : the only thing that really changed for his candidacy after NY is that his chances went from theoretical zero to actual zero. this has been more of a coronation than a primary. meanwhile, the two candidates with the highest negatives in the whole presidential field are going to be the nominees.

hip hip hooray for the duopoly.
They also happen to be the candidates with the most votes by a wide margin, especially in Clintons case. Sanders, Cruz, Kasich, etc can bemoan the process but at the end of the day they all are coming millions of votes and hundreds of delegates behind the big bad bullies.
Do you want the **** sandwich, or the puke milkshake?most elections can be boiled down to voting for **** because the other choice is ****tier. i think that democracy has the potential to be better than tribalism.

I definitely agree. We as the American populace, liberal and conservative, have to fight the corporate establishment as much as possible. We can't just settle for the bare minimum election after election.yeah, South Park basically called it years ago. still much better than a dictatorship or some ideology that can't even work in a vacuum, and we should definitely appreciate that. however, we should also still keep working to increase choices and to make our system better.

If that happens the GOP base is gonna go ****ing insane.I predict Kasich will be the next President. The GOP will never allow Trump to be the nominee.
