2016 Postmortem

(21,221 posts)I support Hillary if she gets the nomination, for example.
I do hate it when people misrepresent Sanders or Clinton either positively or negatively. This thread is about as convincing for Sanders as the pay-for poll Hillary thread that you created a while back.
No one can predict the momentum generated in the early contests. In 2003, I wouldn't have bet on Kerry being the nominee in 2004. In 2007, I wouldn't have bet on Obama in 2008. In 1991 I wouldn't have bet on Clinton being the nominee in 2004. In 1987, I wouldn't have bet on Dukakis. In 1983 I predicted Mondale, but I didn't predict the traction Hart had. In 1975 I thought Udall had it.
Will the nominee be Clinton, Sanders or O'Malley in 2016? "There is not enough information to know now" is the correct answer.
