Hahahaha she don't owe anyone, anything. They're lucky she didn't endorse Hillary like the rest of the women in the Senate. They better leave Warren alone before they push her into Hillary's camp. Her endorsement is worth gold!

Lol EXACTLY! They're shooting themselves in the foot by attacking Warren.

Sorry accidentally quoted you. 

I was watching an interview with a guy knowledgeable in all the delegate math, and basically the way it could happen is if Trump doesn't meet the threshold for delegates needed for a majority to secure the nomination. Thus a contested convention. 

 

Apparently that almost never happens, but the Republican Party has some rule that could be utilized so that if it does then they could pull a recount of the delegates.  Now, the delegates are only pledged to their candidate on the  first "ballot" and are able to switch in the event of a second "ballot" so delegates could then change their candidate. Wouldn't happen until the convention tho, and only if Trump doesn't secure the threshold. 

I've been saying something similar for a while. :giveup: I'm glad Im not the only one who expects a Brokered Convention for the GOP. My prediction is that Romney will be thrown in if Marcobot underperforms in FL.

Have you all seen on facebook and twitter how the Bernie supporters are lashing out against Elizabeth Warren because they blame her for Bernie's loss in Mass. As if it were Warren running for president lol.

"Very moderate" wait wait wait what?! I think you should look deeper into his record because that guy may be "very moderate" compared to the rest of the scum he's running against but it doesn't diminish the fact that he has weakened organized labor in his state and practically destroyed abortion right there too. Kasich is a Republican at the end of the day.

Very true but I'd much rather him to trump or Cruz. But in the end we need the Bern

This is a pretty cool graphic for those following the race. The guys at 538 have made projections of how many delegates each candidate in the Democrat/Republican race needs to win in each state based on demographics to be on track to win the nomination. 

On the Democratic side, it's easy to see why people are saying Hillary has won the nomination already. She scored as many or more delegates than she needed in 13 of the 16 places that have voted so far. Bernie's only done that in 3 states. This means Hillary has won 67 more delegates than she needs to be on track for the nomination at this point and Bernie has 97 less than he needs to be on track. That's a huge margin. Barring some health issue or major scandal, Hillary will be the nominee.

On the Republican side, Trump is dominating even more. He has 37 more delegates than he needs to be on track for the nomination, but what makes it really good for Trump is that Cruz is a whopping 151 delegates behind and Rubio is a similarly huge 126 delegates behind. Looks like either Trump will win enough delegates to secure the nomination or there will be a brokered convention.

I think the ultimate 1-2 punch would he if Elizabeth Warren joined Hillary as vice president lol But I just seriously doubt that would happen.

I like the way they are tracking this. The only thing here, is Hillary was supposed to win those states. Bernie will end up winning states through summer, so the polls say. I can't say I have looked into which states he'll need to overcome Hillary, but it's still possible, especially if Superdelegates change their mind. If it's close and Trump is the Republican nominee, I could see superdelegates switching last minute, which they're allowed to do. It will be interesting.
