And regarding the dramatics and scandals, it's different this time around.

The truth will come out whether she likes it or not. |
Alright, I'm done.
It says NOTHING that she isn't doing as well in GE polls, because GE polls right now mean NOTHING. She has endured three damn decades of political attacks and is still going strong as a mother****er. Bernie's barely gotten through his first real week of it.
There is no precedent yet to claim he'd do better in the general election.
There is no "truth" to come out, or to find out, or that's hidden in those speeches. There are no bombshells. There's nothing shocking. Maybe you want there to be something there to explode and destroy her candidacy, but it's not going to happen.
In order to be on track to win the nomination, he must be at least as high as:
Up by 13 in Colorado. He is
not.
Up by 11 in Massachussetts. He is
not.
Up by 17 in Minnesota. He is
not.
Up by 2 in Oklahoma. He is
not.
Down by 4 in Tennessee. He's down by
26.
Down by 9 in Virginia. He's down by
22.
Down by 20 in Arkansas. He's down by 25.
Down by 20 in Texas. He's down by 23.
Down by 24 in Georgia. He's down by
34.
Down by 27 in Alabama. He's down by 28.
Down by 11 in South Carolina.
He's down by 30.
And keep in mind, these are for just Super Tuesday (or before) - which is in two weeks - and these are the
bare minimums he must do to even have a chance at the nomination.
Believe what you want to believe and believe your candidate will win, that's fine by me - but let's keep the facts straight and in priority over hypothetical crap about today's fresh new Hillary Clinton sound bite.
He will not pull a majority of superdelegates, she's already done that. He will not pull a majority of pledged delegates unless he picks up in
every single state including the ones that vote within two weeks, besides Vermont. He is not going to win Nevada tomorrow, the only poll that has him up in Colorado - a state he's expected to win anyway - is an RNC funded anti-Hillary push poll, he is
not Barack Obama, and this is
not 2008.
too bad he'll never get the nomination.
. I'd do the same for Clinton. 
democrats would wake up the next day and think "wait....what the **** did we just do????"
