Hillary Clinton proved shes the real New Yorker on Tuesday night.
Or at least that shes the choice of New Yorkers.
Clinton needed this win in order to not only expand her delegate lead, but also because she had to do something to cut into Sanderss momentum having won eight of the last nine primary contests.
She certainly accomplished this. And then some.
I in no way want to denigrate what Bernie Sanders has accomplished in this campaign, which has been truly remarkable. When he started out he was over 60 points down in New York and he made this a real race (as he has across the nation).
But after Tuesday nights victory the reality is truly setting in that the delegate math just isnt there for Bernie Sanders. This has been apparent for weeks as his wins havent managed to cut into her 200+ delegate lead, but Ive always thought that a decisive win in New York would be a proverbial nail in the coffin for Sanders.
It follows that Tuesday night's victory represents a critical step towards the nomination for Clinton. A truly well deserved victory and indication that Democrats think much more highly of her than is often portrayed.
