Seriously. Time to call it.

[Chichiri]

Hillary needs only 35.9% of the remaining pledged delegates. Sanders needs 64.2%.

At the Betfair betting exchange, bets on Sanders winning the nomination are no longer being sought for more than 32-to-one, and are no longer being offered for less than 1000-to-one.

At Predictwise, Hillary has a 99% chance of winning.

Based on the kind of campaign he has run, Sanders cannot suspend it without losing face; therefore the only argument to be made for keeping DU in primary season is that Hillary has not mathematically locked the nomination. Because of the superdelegate system, however, no one can technically lock the nomination until the actual floor vote at the convention.

I want my DU back. I want Silly Season to be over. I want Sanders supporters to either accept defeat with good grace and unite behind the Democratic candidate, or leave. I want to start planning for the general now.-

I want Skinner to call it.

It's time.

1. One thing... Let's put something to rest.

To become the nominee, you need to reach the magical number of 2,383. That number is made up of both pledged and automatic delegates. Hillary Clinton currently has 2,164 according to Google. Likewise, she is currently about 90% of the way there.

Other than that, I wholeheartedly agree that the time is near.

2. Yes, if the magical number includes superdelegates...

then let's count ALL the delegates.

The purpose of superdelegates is for party faithful to influence the nomination process during the primary.

Should we exclude them when the loser whines?

3. I want it too

But I think based on reading the ask the administrators...he may not call it until after California.

4. Hillary supporters are faced with a choice as far as DU is concerned

We can be gracious in victory like Hillary was last night. Talk up our agreements and try to be less confrontational, or we can rub it in and be assholes.

I don't mean to not fight back at the lies ( she is a DINO, corrupt... all that bullshit). It's hard because there are some real creeps here who say the most outrageous things.

5. I think even if

is isn't called until after the last primary. Admin needs to do something about the third party, Green Party and etc people. This is supposed to be DEMOCRATIC Underground. Not GREEN, or LIBERTARIAN, or INDEPENDENT Underground.

6. I just had to quote and link to the TOS for someone who thought otherwise

7. Well If Hillary wins even by a small margin in Indiana

Its really over for Sanders, the democrats should pressure him to get out of the race at that point.
