I'd still vote for ha in the general if Sanders went which is more than I can say for a couple of others who want their candidate or bust.

Anyway, Sanders asking for a debate in New York. Should Clinton do it? Personally, I'm not here for it. |
lol no. Why should she? They had so many debates already. They can't really distance themselves further from each other at this point  , they're pretty much not gonna be stressing differences as there are none left

Is it WTA?
I sincerely hope he wins it. If he doesn't he doesn't get to 1237

Wikipedia says it's winner take all. Almost all of the states are from now on

In the primary race, Clinton holds a modest lead over Sanders, 45% to 37%, among all Democrats and independent voters eligible to vote. Her lead is slightly larger, 47% to 36%, among those most likely to vote. Either way, that’s a significant problem for Sanders.

He's doing well with Asian-Americans on the West Coast, which really helps them because Cali has a lot of them. He still trails the Latino and Black vote, but Asian-Americans are helping him out.
Oh and  at President Obama's approval rating staying above 50% (stalling at 53%). He's ending his presidency on a great note, rebounding from a horrid mid-30's approval rating (George W. type of tragic mess). It's not the 60% approval rating of President Clinton, but with the damage done that he had to fix, it's really really good signs for his legacy he'll leave behind.

Is that the latest Gallup poll? The last one I saw, he was at 51% same with the new CNN poll released a couple days ago...either way, very healthy numbers, meanwhile, Congress is at 15% lol

Another debate would only do harm to Hillary and help Bernie. They have discussed their differences to the very minute details, there's literally nothing left to discuss. All that another debate would serve to do is give Bernie another chance to reaffirm the idea that Hillary is not to be trusted. It will also do more damage to Hillary and the Democratic Party in the GE, assuming she gets the nomination of course.

Yes, a new one shows him at 53% in the Gallup poll. It has been on 53% it feels like for about 3 weeks now.

Hillary Clinton might be ahead of Bernie Sanders in delegates, but Vermont’s Senator has a monopoly on political momentum.

Momentum doesn't win primaries, delegates do

Let's not link Bernie Bros in this thread. HA Goodman is the worst of them all (well one of the only Bernie bros who are big)
