There Is A Hole in Bernie Sanders' Strategy For Winning The Nomination

[displacedtexan]

Excellent read from HuffPo.

On Sunday, Sanders was more explicit about his view of the role that superdelegates need to play, arguing that those from states in which he had already beaten Clinton handedly had an obligation to switch their support to him now.

“If I win a state with 70 percent of the votes, you know what? I think I’m entitled to those superdelegates,” he said.

The word “entitled” is what complicates Sanders’ case

1. Sanders is a poor loser

argue what you want about the super delegates, you allocate them proportionately, like the state delegates, and Hillary still gets enough to put them over the top. Sanders and his supporters are just coming up with multiple arguments to keep his campaign alive, and the cash flowing in! Must be hard to give up the campaign lifestyle!

2. I'm pretty sure the hole is in his head!

He is lucky that he can blackmail himself a little stage time at the convention and a ticket home to Vermont.

6. I thought it read, "There Is An A Hole ..."

Silly me.

3. Give them to him

He still loses.

I wish we could actually be productive and fully switch to GE mode. Time spent on Sanders is time wasted.

8. That's what I don't get.

All that time he spends bitching about something that wouldn't help him anyway...what's the point of it??

4. a person whose entire political career is "I'm right and your're wrong" likely sees things different

5. he's been an independent his entire

life and now he wants to change how the democratic party works.

7. Next he'll promise to name a post office after any SD who switches to him ...

you know, because he gets things done!
