Wait, literally?

Not literally, but he talked about how losing 52-48 is a tie and that he's going to win hundreds of delegates regardless.  Basically the Rubio talking points.

Oklahoma was historically the strongest state for the Socialist Party.  Clearly it's just them expressing their latent ancestral Marxism.

In Oklahoma conservative Democrats voted 51% Sanders, 27% Other and 21% Clinton.
LMAO!

Let's dispel this fiction that the Sanders-Clinton divide has anything to do with ideology.

Clinton beat Sanders by 8 in OK in absentee/early votes, but Sanders is beating her by ~15 among today's voters. Have no explanation.

Olds tend to vote early and absentee more

Hillary winning Sudbury, MA 532-0. Guys, you're supposed to make it believable.

Beautiful!  What a freedom town!

Clearly, Sanders' performance in CO/MA/MN/OK/VT wasn't bad at all. It was his crushing losses in the South that made it a bad night for him. Case in point, the biggest mistake of the Sanders campaign was only focusing on states he thought he could win. In a proportional system, it's worth your while to invest in Texas, even if it's not a state you can win. Better to lose by 15% than 35%.

Wins keeps the money flowing.  Most of his supporters don't understand how the process actually works and will just keep throwing money at him based on his "strong" performance tonight.  And as long as he has money he thinks he'll be able to come back and win.

Yup, people need to remember this isn't the electoral college. State wins don't mean very much, aside from optics. What really matters are the margins, and Hillary's margins in the South have effectively shut Bernie out of the nomination. There's just nowhere he can make it up, especially if he's splitting the delegates in states like IA and MA.

Yeah, I saw that graphic where someone did the math.  Sanders needs to win every non-Southern state by an average of seven points to make up for his landslide losses in the South.  While he can pull those margins in Upper New England and white liberal enclaves like MN and CO (and probably the PNW too) he won't be able to do that in the Midwest.  If he can't win Massachusetts, he's not going to win Ohio or Pennsylvania.
