1. CNN just called it too.

[big_dog]

13. wolf!

[retrowire]

2. Do a little dance, Feel a little Bern, GET DOWN TONIGHT nt

[NeoConsSuck]

6. + 1000 !

[Manifestor_of_Light]

22. Lionel Richie singing in my head!!!

GET DOWN TONIGHT!!!

[rury]

32. That's KC and The Sunshine Band

...not Lionel Richie.

[Manifestor_of_Light]

45. Oh OK sorry.

All those 70s era disco party songs sound somewhat alike.

I saw KC and the Sunshine Band on TV once. They got started singing in a Pentecostal church in Ohio, I think.

[lilsourgoose]

82. Please stop!

KC & The Sunshine Band were very much from Miami. Misinformation on even the most trivial subjects is the last thing I want to see on this board!

[Manifestor_of_Light]

85. OK sorry

[TIME TO PANIC]

3. K & R!

[me b zola]

4. Woot!

[Skwmom]

7. +1,000,000

[mountain grammy]

5. YES, YES, YES!

Thank you Indiana!

[msongs]

8. congrats on his massive delegate gain nt

[wisteria]

11. Lol

[Divernan]

12. Stay classy!

[Feeling the Bern]

17. Let me guess, HRC shill. . .Indiana doesn't matter too, right?

Welcome to ignoreland.

[Chicago1980]

40. It's a fact.

[roguevalley]

105. no, fact is she lost.

[Chicago1980]

142. Fact is she winning in delegates and popular vote.

Period!

[NeoConsSuck]

30. Repeat that 1000 times tonight

it will help you to sleep better. LOL!

[StarzGuy]

75. R U Sure about that?

Isn't the Indiana like all the dems primaries proportional? That means he might get a few more than Clinton, but changes nothing in the overall race...

[ChisolmTrailDem]

121. Hillary lost! nt

[Plucketeer]

123. Congrats on Hill's charm

and skullduggery managing a showing.

[AtheistCrusader]

136. These grapes are delicious, no matter what you say.

Shame you didn't get them.

[truedelphi]

140. So sweet, and I want more! n/t

[wisteria]

9. Congratulations Independants, and Sander's.

Enjoy the win, but in the long haul, it isn't the 65% needed, he didn't win the Democrates, snd it will net him around 26 delagates. Clinton has already won the war.

[UpInArms]

16. enjoy your case of snark

n/t

[Live and Learn]

83. They just can't help themselves. nt

[tomm2thumbs]

89. unfortunately for Clinton

She is 'damaged goods' right out of the box -- her unfavorables are continuing to hurt her reputation.

If she can't win over a majority of Democrats in state after state that she needs to win, even after she has been called the presumed nominee and even after the entire party flocks to her side, well, that should tell you everything about her viability. Especially in a state she won against Obama.

[FailureToCommunicate]

122. +1

[nxylas]

117. Have you noticed how many Hillary supporters make the same basic errors?

"Sander's", "Democrates" and so on. I'm sure it's just a coincidence, though.

[warrprayer]

119. I noticed that

very strange....

[tomm2thumbs]

135. too many too name actually!

[SammyWinstonJack]

132. Too be expected considering their candidate who just can't help

herself either.

[litlbilly]

19. Oregon and California will make up for that. get over it...

[retrowire]

33. this nt

[Chicago1980]

38. Wouldn't put him ahead.

[dubyadiprecession]

78. Great gamblers mentality...

The odds are against him. She is only 200 delegates from winning. BS needs 984 delegates to win.

He never had enough momentum and now it's too late for him to get over it.

[Arugula Latte]

127. Yes, Oregon can't stand Hillary. I think Bernie is going to win big here.

[Ccarmona]

24. Try and Ignore

Bernie at your own peril.

[MrMickeysMom]

28. Thanks for the hysteria sweat...

Here's a hug for you...

[JPnoodleman]

41. Her trophy? A field of ashes. n/t

[BuelahWitch]

52. So, do tell, what is it that is in these mysterious DemoCRATES?

Any of my fellow Berners ever hear about these special crates? Whatta they got in 'em?

[Fantastic Anarchist]

124. Must be a guy from Greece.

[chwaliszewski]

53. Democrates?

Is that Socrates' brother or something?

[geardaddy]

62. LOL

That's what I thought, too!

[Thor_MN]

69. Huff Post has him currently netting 6, with 5 delegate unaccounted

42-36 with 5 more to go. If those numbers are right, Sanders max gain is 11.

Those are the numbers I am seeing.

http://elections.huffingtonpost.com/2016/primaries/2016-05-03#IN-GOP

[ReRe]

73. We welcome your dissent!

Keep on truckin Bernie!

[basselope]

76. Not even close.

[Number23]

79. "it will net him around 26 delagates" Looks like it will only net him about 6 delegates

NY Times has him down 290 now. http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2016/us/elections/primary-calendar-and-results.html?_r=0

[Marrah_G]

102. Everything you say before "but" is negated by what you say after it.

[redwitch]

10. Happy Feet!

[Divernan]

14. Hoosier Daddy, Indiana?!?!?

[Chicago1980]

37. In that state no one knows.

[Person 2713]

51. I was going to say possibly a close relative

[AllyCat]

15. Yay!!!!

[sharp_stick]

18. Any delegate counts? n/t

[Chicago1980]

36. They'll be pretty evenly divided.

Being proportional and all.

[wallyworld2]

20. A win for Senator Sanders

This must mean for more calls for him to drop out.

[kadaholo]

21. WOOHOO!!!

THANKS INDIANA!!! GO BERNIE!!!

[MrMickeysMom]

23. Onward to WV!

Go Bernie!

P.S. I phone banked Indiana last night to GOTV. Please PM me to see how you can join me!!!

[mike_c]

25. that's a good feeling....

And California is coming.

[Madmiddle]

26. So now he should drop out?!

I wish we had a mainstream media. FEEL THE BERN!!!

[Chicago1980]

34. No,

But you shouldn't expect him to get the nomination just because of the numbers.

[ReRe]

70. Believe me...

... you're not missing anything on M$M, They wouldn't even cover Bernie's victory speech and thank you to Indiana. At first, he was talking in the dark, and once they got some light on Bernie, they cut out to talk some more about the tRumpster. I have turned my TV off and on about 10 times tonight.

M$M can shut Bernie out all they want.
The Political Revolution will not be televised. Bernie won Indiana tonight.

Hey, he will be in Lexington, KY tomorrow evening. Doors open at 4PM. Place (Heritage Hall) doesn't hold that many, so if you go, plan on going early and standing in line all day if you want to get in. I wish they would have jumbotrons outside for those that don't get in. Hope springs eternal.

Go Bernie!!!

[Beacool]

27. Congratulations.

[awake]

47. nice

thank you for the kindness

[Beacool]

61. You're welcome.

[Peregrine Took]

29. Bernin' down the house!

[Chicago1980]

31. Congratulations...

But seeing as delegates are proportional, there's not much of a gain by Senator Sanders.

[Chico Man]

35. Bad news for the party

Unbelievable the Republicans are more united than the Democrats (and with Trump as the candidate!)

Time to stop the bleeding.

[cali]

42. The republicans are in far worse shape than the democrats

Though it does shine a spotlight on how weak our presumptive nominee is.

[Chico Man]

44. Presumptive nominee

Or no presumptive nominee, it's too easy to divide and conquer the Dems - it's a huge vulnerability even with such a terrible Republican candidate. The longer this race goes the better it is for Trump.

[mountain grammy]

49. Yes, that's scary and so is this:

As many people voted for Hillary and Bernie combined as voted for Trump. The turnout for Democrats in the primaries is scary.

[ReRe]

87. My son just reminded me...

... that so far, tRump has 10 mil votes. PO won the election in 2012 with 66 mil votes. We need to relax and not be so scared of the tRumpster. Yes, this is a Primary, not the General Election, but still.

[mountain grammy]

97. My husband tells me the same thing, constantly..

but still. The Baja is looking better and better.

[Scootaloo]

80. Hey Cali! Long time no see!

[ieoeja]

129. Political Analyst I Heard on TV This Morning

I'm paraphrasing here:

Hillary plummeted in the polls during the last week in almost every single state this primary. Democrats should be very concerned.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

92. Chico, don't be discouraged

The Man he ain't so hard to understand. Chico, if you try now, I know that you can lend a helping hand. Because there's good in everyone And a new day has begun You can see the morning sun if you try.
And I know, things will be better Oh yes they will for Chico and the Man
Yes they will for Chico and the Man.

Sorry, couldn't help it

[Warren Stupidity]

43. oops.

Let the insufferable splaining begin.

[Warren DeMontague]

46. People arent voting as they're told!

[angrychair]

48. Congratulations Bernie Sanders!!

All. The. Way. To. The. Convention.

[zentrum]

50. Great upset.

So, if the super delegates insist on staying with Clinton—it will be a fight between Trump and a very unpopular Democrat.

If she loses to Trump, the DNC has no one to blame but themselves.

[LiberalElite]

55. But they'll find a way to blame it on us eom

[SammyWinstonJack]

133. Not sure that will fly since she has stated she doesn't need our votes in the GE.

Good, because she's not getting mine should she find herself the nominee.

[SusanCalvin]

137. Ooooh! I should bookmark the thread just for ^THIS^!

[chwaliszewski]

56. ^^^ TRUE DAT! ^^^

[jonestonesusa]

54. Congratulations, Bernie Nation!

Enjoy the primary win!! You earned it with your hard work, your commitment to better policy, your tenacity in spite of all the efforts to silence your voices. Cheers to all!!

[LaydeeBug]

57. Congratulations Bernie supporters!!

You worked hard and won the day!

[hollowdweller]

58. It's kind of sad about Sanders

It took so long for people to know him. I know his campaign has spent a lot of money getting him known, rather than letting others define him.

Although he's getting more and more popular I'm not sure he will have time to catch up enough to win the nomination.

The sad thing is his message is so popular and he's pretty honest and he really would make a good president but if he misses the mark, he will be too old next time.

It's sort of sad that there is no younger politician who could step in and have the same sort of agenda and style.

I mean you look at some other presidents they had to run a couple times before they won. Sanders doesn't have that option.

[LiberalLovinLug]

134. Yeah, Americans had a chance in a lifetime

for a truly transformative administration, and they blew it.

All hail the new queen, same as the old king

[bvar22]

138. There are others who can and will pick up the torch.

The Movement didn't start with Bernie,
and won't end with him.
He is a charismatic leader, but he stepped in to lead a Movement that was already moving.

Win or Lose the nomination, this has been a GREAT WIN for Progressive Democrats and our message of Equal Opportunity, Equal Access, Equal Protections, Equal Rights...for EVERYBODY... no exceptions,
the unfairness of the Great Wealth Divide,
The Rigged System,
the exposure of Wall Street and Big Bank corruption,
the selling off of our Commons,
the dismantling of OUR Safety Net,
the plight of OUR POOR,
and corruption at the highest levels inside BOTH Political Parties.

THAT won't just go away if Hillary is the nominee.
It will follow her like a rotten fish tied around her neck,
and she will be called on it at every opportunity.


There are other GREAT, Honest, Populist Democrats who can lead.
You just haven't heard of them because they have been shoved into a dark corner and marginalized by the Big Money Democrats and the Media.

If we lose this Primary, pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and start working on the primary of 2020.

59. K&R. Glad to hear it.

[Punkingal]

60. Yippee!

[humbled_opinion]

63. Let's ride this momentum

and defeat Hillary once and for all.... Now that Trump is the nominee, let's smash through with Bernie and destroy the GOP completely... Hillary unable to close will fail in the GE.... This is our last chance...

[Marie Marie]

64. Great news!

[Dont call me Shirley]

65. WooHoo! Bernie!.....

[840high]

66. k/r with love for Bernie.

Bellweather county Vigo went for him.

[DJ13]

67. Has anyone checked to make sure Rachel Maddow is all right?

Something about locked in her dressing room screaming and yelling its all "that stupid old man's fault!"..........

[ReRe]

90. Hey...

... did you notice Joy Reed (sp?) while ago (MSNBC)? That girl was about to blast off into outer space! Talking a mile-a-minute, I couldn't keep up with what she was saying. I hope they gave her a stiff drink or something to calm her down. She sounded like she was having cardiac arrest.

[DJ13]

93. No, I missed that

Was it like too many Starbucks frappachino's, or something stronger?

[ReRe]

95. Yes...

... it definitely seemed like a too-much-coffee kind of thing.
... Just way too much coffee. Frantic.

[Corey_Baker08]

68. As A Hoosier & Hillary Supporter, I Voted For Sanders...

What Vice President Biden Said About The Democratic Party Being The Party That Doesn't Settle For The Status Quo, We're The Party That Shoots For The Moon!

[benny05]

71. Hellagood!

[link:

[SoapBox]

72. Gasp!

Get ready for all the excuses...Indiana gets tossed under the bus!

[Jack Rabbit]

74. K/R

[LovingA2andMI]

77. YES!!!!

[erlewyne]

81. I am voting for Bernie in November

Come Donald Trump, hell or high water!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

<b> I am voting for BERNIE </b>

Not Hilllary.

I am voting for BERNIE!!!!

[tomm2thumbs]

88. I believe he will be the nominee and that you will be right about that

Hillary is struggling, STRUGGLING, with all her built-in advantages and is unable to put this away. Even as the Party establishment anoints her, even as the corporate media and news world ignores Sanders and speaks of nothing but a Trump/Clinton race, even as politicos and all the financial powers that be line up to celebrate her coronation....

EVEN AFTER ALL THAT... she cannot even bank her own party voters in a state she won previously against Obama

speaks VOLUMES!!!!!

[PatrynXX]

84. Totally didn't see that one coming.

Indiana is Union territory. I fully expected Hillary to win this one easy. And I'm a Bernie supporter. This one was about as shocking as MI. She's lost in several big Union states. Can't say about what the racial break down is. Since Gary Indiana is a duh and that went Hillary but not a large margin. But yeah he just got another $15 from me. I wasn't even sure I was going to do one at the moment but for sure he's getting a boost. ticked under 300 delegate lead. But Trump is way way ahead for supposedly a contested race. I have a doubt. The old Obama saying in 2008 is she can't close the deal. Limping along is not a winning strategy in November

[ieoeja]

130. Huge disconnect between union members and leaders this election.

I was in a bar in Chicago full of union members one night when all but one person said there is no way in hell they would ever vote for Clinton. The one exception was a union rep.

And he was visibly shocked. He's known these guys for decades, and they have always voted the union endorsed candidate. He couldn't believe what he was hearing.

Yuuuuuuge disconnect this primary.


FYI: Indianapolis is under 60% White, non-Hispanic, but went Bernie anyway.

[elmac]

86. With Cruz quitting and Bernie winning

I'm too wired to sleep.

[TexasBushwhacker]

91. I went out for alcohol

Got myself a 6 pack of Not Your Father's Root Beer.

I was wearing my Bernie T-shirt. The checker, a young woman, said "I like your shirt!" I told her he won Indiana tonight and she broke into a fist pumping happy dance. We need that enthusiasm. It gets people to the polls and when voter turn out is high, we win.

[tom_kelly]

94. Every time I wear my Bernie T-shirt

its always the younger people who comment on how much they like my shirt. The more aged folks seem to always want to ask questions.

[elmac]

96. That is great

it makes me happy just to see young people enthused about politics and it took a Democratic Socialist from VT to do it.

[Nyan]

99. Just the fact that we'll see less of that swamp creature is a blessing.

No offense to the swamp creatures though.

[Lodestar]

98. Happy dance....!!!!!

[GoneOffShore]

100. Can I say - EPIC!!!?

And when California goes for Bernie, there's a particular Arkansas/New York bitter drink I'll be indulging in.

[Betty Karlson]

101. "I think he should drop out now" - Camp Weathervane, always.

Sigh.

What a relief. Thanks Indiana!

And California, if the Hoosiers can do it, we are counting on you to do even better. FEEL THE BERN!!!!

[dana_b]

103. my family and I will do our part

I was VERY happily surprised by tonight.

[Betty Karlson]

104. Me too sister - bless your family!

[dana_b]

106. and you and yours!

We will make Cali BERN! (in the non wildfire way )

[Betty Karlson]

107. And congratulations on the butthurt Jerry Brown gave Rick Scott.

"We are competing with economies like France and Brazil. We don't compete with Florida. Please find enclosed some studies on climate change."

[dana_b]

108. lol... Scott is such an ignorant ass!

Jerry isn't perfect but he's one of the better governors in my lifetime. I did love his response.
But the 7th largest economy in the world? I think we dropped!

[Betty Karlson]

111. Give Bernie the nomination, and see if improvement is again an option?

No more status quo! Bernie 2016!

[dana_b]

112. I couldn't agree more!

Get California back to #5 in the world! lol...

Btw - I just saw that Bernie opened his campaign office in Oakland. Now I'm going to check everyday to see when he will be speaking. My daughter and I WILL go see him.

[Betty Karlson]

113. Maybe even do some volunteering over there?

If it's right next door...?

(Don't mean to make impossible demands on you. But maybe someone in your family can spare Bernie an hour every week?)

[dana_b]

114. definitely. Before we moved last weekend

(to San Jose) I was doing the phonebanking. Starting next week I'd actually like to get more involved here. Phonebanking is fine but i find it tedious and it would be nice to meet other Bernie folks.

[Betty Karlson]

115. Thanks for all you have done, and good luck with all you will do

(hope the new home will give you joy and many happy memories.)

[dana_b]

116. thanks, Betty

good luck to you too

[Beartracks]

141. The unspoken part of "He should drop out" is...

"...before he wins another primary!!"

===================================

[myrna minx]

109. K&R. I can hear the screaming and wailing from MSNBC personalities all the way in Minnesota.

Even after all the hours of anti Bernie propaganda bellowing forth from Maddow and Matthews et al. paid Internet trolls "Brocking the record", having the power and weight of the "impartial" DNC backing his opponent, and screams to drop out since Last year, Sanders still won Indiana- a NAFTA decimated Union state.

Don't worry Indiana, it appears you're another irrelevant state - like all the others Bernie has won.

[Betty Karlson]

110. Interesting: you hear screaming and wailing, but much further to the east we hear gnashing of teeth

Rachel Maddow's dental friction is particularly audible.

Could it be that there is a Doppler effect going on, with the way MSNBC emits noise coming and going?

[fasttense]

120. We just call it the Trump channel

When MSNBC does talk about the Democrats, it's rarely anything good about Bernie. I think they have taken calling for Bernie to quit to new levels. I can almost hear them sharping their knives any time Bernie gets mentioned. It seems to be personal for them to trash Bernie.

They should just drop the word news from their logo.

[warrprayer]

118. Bernin' like a TORCH!

[erlewyne]

125. Hillary is kicking ass! and I am coming forth!!!

When I vote for Bernie come November I will
remember today's headlines.

MAY the forth be with you

Well, I am working on a fifth, that is 4/5ths of a gallon.

Me and Bernie are together ... yeah, I know
Bernie likes me. I wish I would have met him
long ago.


GO BERNIE!!! I feel the bern.

[Sunlei]

126. Close again, Congrats to both our Ds. Mrs. Clinton & Senator Sanders, Team-up, Unite the Party.

My Yin and Yang Dream Team kicks Republican ass.

[avaistheone1]

128. Way to go Bernie!

[Phlem]

131. YUUUUGE FUCK YES!

[Blandocyte]

139. This socialist is damaging the image of the party

Drop out, Bernie. You'll do it eventually.
