| Where are Hillary's other 130 delegates going to come from? |
|
Please... someone... do tell. I'm dying to know. Double super secret Puerto Rico firewall strategy? Crying and foot stomping about FL and MN? Promises of *redacted* for super delegates in the Lincoln Bedroom? Please explain. I'm stumped? :shrug:

| 1. It is unlikely. I think her strategy now is to get a national popular vote win with big wins |

| 9. What "rules"? Please tell me one rule that states that "pledged delegates decide the winner"? |
|
You people really are ignorant of the DNC process. It's disgusting, repulsive really, because it leads to these ignorant hateful posts.

how does she get the supers? It looks increasingly like they will mirror the pledged delegates. Or are all these Hillary hopes pinned on squeaking out a nationwide popular vote victory and using that as a tool to try and recruit supers? Is this what keeps the dream alive?

The closeness of the races does not play in HRC's favor in the delegate race. Obama is ahead on popular vote as well as delegates so she has to win BIG. Really really big. Tonight she was mathematically eliminated unless she won Ohio by 30-40%.

| 10. There are many arguments that can be made. She can pull ahead in the popular vote. |
|
And she'd certainly table MI and FL's popular vote for this process. It's quite exciting.

I'm just curious about how you think she can get from here to there. I don't see the path.

| 13. If you don't see the path, stop worrying about it. Be secure in your fixed mind |
|
that delegates are static, that there's "no way" she can win, that the popular vote won't influence Super Delegates in any fashion.

| 8. And whomever controls the most other delegates |
|
at the convention will get to decide weather to seat the FL delegation. So unless Hillary wins the delegate race FL is moot.
