OMG!  did you just hear susan estrich freaking witch cackle on foxnews? :lmao:

She didn't say much of anything IMO, just that today "changes the Democrat party race". Soh.

Lol, yeah, I saw Susan's drunken performance, at least that one. She scares me, and I'd just remembered that she did creep me out this week again when she said that she'd helped DNC had wrote the rules to an imperfect primary system and that the nominee should be grateful to all the superdelegates just like here. :bird:

If neither of them gets the required amount of delegates, can the DNC be prevented from putting a candidate forward for the election?  :-)
If you want to worship an orange pile of garbage with a reckless disregard for everything, get on down to Arbys & try our loaded curly fries.

there are several hundred superdelegates;  the will make the difference, even if they split.

Dang.  I was hoping for some mathematical stalemate that would prevent either candidate from getting the minimum amount of delegates required to be their Party's candidate.

it is doubtful that either candidate will get the requisite number of delegates during the primaries;  at that point, it is up to the decidedly UNdemocratic process of buying off superdelegates in order to win the nomination.
