I give it until after March fifteenth. After that, reality might start to sink in as somebody finally realizes the delegate deficit from abandoning the south is completely insurmountable.

can be a guide.
And as to Trump
Democrats, South Carolina, and wrapping up our primary season
On the flip side, if you think Clinton cant win against Donald Trump, you are a fucking moron. Seriously, you are as dumb as rocks. But! you yell, Her unfavorables are 54 percent! Yes, they are! But a big chunk of that is Sanders supporters. Check out the chart below: see that inflection point when Clintons unfavorables overtook her favorables? That was April 2015. You know what month Bernie Sanders entered the campaign? April 2015. Most will come home after Sanders bows out.
Favorability ratings, Hillary Clinton

Next up, you cant argue 54 percent unfavorables makes her unelectable while claiming that Donald Trump can win with unfavorables of 58 percent. Look at his chart below. People have always thought that Donald Trump was a dick, and little has changed since the day they started polling his favorables. But you want to argue that the guy people have always hated is more electable than the woman who is less polarizing? That said, even his numbers will improve after he clinches the nomination as most Republicans rally home as well.
