New math! Bernie is actually WINNING the nomination! He is 72% there, Hil is 60%!

[Godhumor]

Since people are actually advocating that Superdelegates vote Bernie if Hillary falls short of securing the nomination with pledged delegates only, that means to win:

Hillary needs 2,384 pledged delegates, because no one supports her if she can't even win the nomination without Supers!

Bernie needs 1,669! (2,384 - 715 Supers who will be forced to support him through adulation!)

So Bernie currently has 1,205--only 464 more to go!
Hillary has a paltry 1,446 in comparison--she still needs 938!

It is obvious that Bernie is totally crushing it! And he is smart, like, I dunno a unicorn or something, because he has figured out a way to win by losing!



Don't mind me! Now, I'm off to prove that Mercury is bigger than Jupiter!

1. Not sure if this is "denial" or "bargaining." Maybe a bit of both. nt

[SFnomad]

2. It's sarcasm ... if you couldn't figure it out before, the last line is a dead giveaway n/t

[MADem]

5. I understand the OP is using sarcasm--but I've seen the argument he's mocking postulated right here,

on this website. That was the point I was making (woosh).

Why, someone here actually said that Clinton needed to win every contest by 67% to "hold on!"

And they weren't joking, either.

[SFnomad]

8. That's just frightening n/t

[Thinkingabout]

10. Don't know they studied fuzzy math at George W University but if Hillary needs 67% of the

Remaining delegates, Sanders has less delegates and will need more then the math doesn't add up. Maybe this is a new fund raiser they can sell to some.

[moriah]

15. I figured that's what you meant.

You aren't that sarcasm impaired.

But yes, I do agree that there's a grief process going on right now for Bernie supporters. Sadly, acceptance takes awhile.

[MADem]

25. Poco a poco....hopefully sooner rather than later.

I miss the fun DU.

[Godhumor]

6. Trust me, MAD knows exactly what this was

The reference made was to what stage Bernie supporters are in that believe this to be true in other posts on the forum.

[snowy owl]

3. Both wrong. It's a waste of time.

[NurseJackie]

9. I hope Bernie and his fans hear your declaration.

[IamMab]

4. All super-delegates should be warned to not look directly at The Bernie.

For the safety of their vision, given his blinding brilliance.

[griffi94]

7. Exactly

Nothing is more bewitching than a pissed off old guy
shouting and waving his arms.

[NurseJackie]

11. I totally thought this was going to be ...

... a reference to "Clash of the Titans"

[IamMab]

12. I thought about...

...a Raiders of the Lost Ark reference, but I suspected that could be considered OTT.

[NurseJackie]

13. That would be amusing too ...

... for people who have an actual sense of humor and who don't have a stick up their ass.

[Gothmog]

14. Sanders will not be getting many super delegates

[PowerToThePeople]

16. Come June, if Hillary is the nominee

She is YOUR nominee.

I wash my hands of any right wing, war mongering, big money "Democrat."

[JoePhilly]

17. Well, you have to stay "pure", right?

I guess obsessive unnecessary hand washing could be part of that.

[PowerToThePeople]

18. I will never vote for a right winger

call that "you need to stay pure" if you want.

I could not care less what you think.

[JoePhilly]

19. Stay home, we don't need you.

[PowerToThePeople]

20. I will not stay home

I will actively continue to work in opposition to the 3rd way.

[JoePhilly]

21. So will the GOP.

[PowerToThePeople]

22. It looks like there are more than two entities in this battle

for the future of this Nation.

[SHRED]

31. Words of wisdom

+10

[MADem]

26. One we have our nominee, you won't be doing that shit here. nt

[PowerToThePeople]

27. If it is Hillary, you may be correct.

But, I will still do it. Many other places.

[Sheepshank]

23. Malinformed extremists are so ........................extreme

And so not representative of a majority of the population. I remember the purists that cussed out Obama beginning the day of his inauguration. Majority of the nation rolls eyes at such extremism, realizing that at least there is some entertainment value to be had.

[PowerToThePeople]

24. You go with that.

[Renew Deal]

30. That's fine as long as we don't have to listen to the backbiting any more

Sounds like a deal

[Godhumor]

32. I know, right? N/t

[Skink]

28. Bookmarking till sober

Normally good at math.

29. You mean Mercury isn't bigger than Jupiter? LOL
