So what exactly does this mean for Trump? I don't follow politics so I'm sorry if this a stupid question.

It's definitely going to be interesting. I think NH will be a non-event (as in everyone will just accept and expect Bernie to win).

I can already see the Bernie stans in here like, "Where are the Clinton stans now that Bernie is winning?!" Bookmark me.

nnnn I think she writes her own speeches But anyway, she's gonna have to keep explaining her shady Native American business, so I don't expect her to try to run anytime soon.

I could see a Clinton/Sanders ticket a lot more than I could several months ago, let me tell you that. Don't bank too hard on Castro for Clinton or on Warren for Sanders - they could totally pick each other. One has massive establishment and base support, the other pulls in way more liberal young voters. Not a bad ticket.

A Warren and Sanders duo. I never thought of that

Bernie doesn't feel like the type to agree to a VP ticket, though I think it would be viable in the general election. He (and Elizabeth Warren) can both get much more done in the Senate than the vice presidency would allow.

as of now, nothing. It all depends on if a pattern emerges and he keeps losing.

Of the precincts left, five are in Sanders-leaning counties and six (including two in Polk County) are in Clinton-leaning ones.

No way in hell does Clinton settle for VP. She's got WH dreams.
And Clinton won't pick Sanders: how does he help her with the moderates? He's almost as polarizing as she is and too much on the left.
She's going to go for a young charming VP, basically an Obama clone: everything she's not.

That will likely change soon.

I don't think so. Hillary and Bernie disagree about many things, but always do so in a respectful manner, even if they are flat out wrong. Democrats do not need a class division. Both Clinton and Sanders continue to campaign for a unified party, echoing much of each other's ideals. I support both of them, even if I want Clinton to win. They're both great candidates, and each have strengths and weaknesses. It's very difficult for me to talk about politics with die-hard Bernie fans and die-hard Clinton fans because both sides are caught up in the excitement of the race and have no time for facts or reason. Anyone who is a fan of Bernie's policies is, deep down, a fan of 70-80% of Hillary's policies, and vice versa, even if you "hate" that person for whatever reason. It's so frustrating. No one wants to be friendly.

Honestly I know that but whoever wins I just want Warren as the VP

Iowa was a bad state for him because all the evangelicals there were likely to vote for Cruz. He should win New Hampshire easily, which will give him the momentum again. If he doesn't win there he's in trouble.

I just don't want Castro because he's not enough imo.

[feelslikeadream]

Yeah, Castro's pretty ideal for various reasons. But I don't like his face for some reason

Where are you getting your numbers?

Not much. He might need to do more grass roots campaigning, but other than that not much. New Hampshire is next. Then South Carolina. Then Nevada. Then FINALLY Super Tuesday, when almost every other states chooses nominees.

Also it's about time for a lot of candidates to start bowing out.

Shows which candidate is leading each county, then I manually go through and search,

Was just updated though, ten left now!

Bernie can do a lot as VP. Clinton will just have to die or slip into a coma 1st.

It won't get to 08 levels but Bernie cannot continue to employ the same campaign tactics if he wants to win and start building momentum.

I think it will be Tim Kaine tbh. He'a not young, but he's popular. And from Virginia.

[ShineOverShadow]

I think Cory Booker would be a great choice for Hill's VP.

I don't know if anyone's mentioned it yet, but really the biggest loser of the night was Jeb Bush. All the money he's raised, spent, yet he only got 3%...

Before Trump entered, he was the one expected to win. The establishment definitely wanted to rally behind him. But now they're going to Rubio.
