2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumData from Indiana Shows Sanders Losing Badly with Inaccurate Psychics
As Hillary notches her 18th Second Place finish of the 2016 primaries, doubts surround the ability of Bernie Sanders to win over the inaccurate psychics vote. Data shows that Inaccurate Psychics favor Hillary Clinton over Sanders by a high margin, almost 8 to 1. The number of inaccurate psychics has grown sharply in the last 24 hours and winning these voters over may be difficult for Sanders.
The prognosticators at 538 gave Hillary and 91% chance of winning Indiana. Their inaccuracy is as strong as their support for the front runner.
Sanders also performed poorly among those who ignored exit polls all day long and among MSM personalities who are paid to insert the phrase "but Clinton is still ahead in the delegate count" into every sentence about a Sanders win.

Clinton support Among Non-white Voters has collapsed
Its all part of a dramatic national trend that has seen Clintons support among nonwhite voters dwindle to well under a third of what it was just a month ago not nearly enough support to carry her, as it did throughout the Deep South, to future electoral victories in the Midwest and Northeast.

(47,209 posts)picking old news from HuffPo- is pretty dishonest- how long ago was Wisconsin? LOL. Nope- Hillary's number are improving where they matter. Hillary vs Trump. Anything else is irrelevant.

(67,401 posts)I guess he'll have to stand in line at the Clinton foundation to get an appointment with them. I'm sure the coronated one or her husband can get that set up for a small fee...say, 3 installments of $600,000 for speeches.

(456 posts)If either win it is a loss for the non-elite. Sanders getting this far shows OWS and such are still going strong, we need to keep the momentum going forward.

She will lose to Trump should she be the nominee.

which, while portending absolutely nothing concerning the future, gives them great comfort which they then share with a certain group of followers....
it is noted, however, that they don't look further back than 2009...and in fact, many tend to only concentrate on the last 12 months...
also, the mirror has certain clarity problems between 1992 and 2000...
