Not surprising at all.

But some guy on Twitter said a few would switch if he wins California! HILLARY IN DANGER!!! /Atlas

Clinton campaign is very bullish on the results tonight. Using the phrase "any minute" to describe Clinton's pending nomination.

I just don't see the strategy behind this? Anger the already rabid Sanders supporters and possibly soften support for Hillary among people who might not think it's necessary to vote on Tuesday? Can someone explain this to me.

It's certainly strange. Or would an effective clinching of the nomination be more likely to depress Sanders turnout?

Hillary should absolutely want an actual election result (NJ) to put her over, not superdelegates.  I'm pretty sure she's having them hold off till Tuesday night just for that reason.

Maybe the "any minute now" is supposed to be more tounge and cheek.

I believe the strategy is to raise money from people on her mailing list.

They seem to be at 15% of precincts with Clinton leading 65/35.

200 million dollars raised... and this. 200 million dollars and not even a fraction of that was spent developing even a skeleton of a real campaign operation or performing the basic day to day tasks of a real campaign. I actually feel bad for the people who were suckered into giving money to Sanders' campaign, hoping it would go towards promoting his message and actually trying to win the nomination, and instead saw it vanish into the pockets of consultants, TV ad execs, and huge bloated salaries for people high up in the campaign.

As I mentioned in another thread, even though Hillary will clinch the nomination either way, it's bad optics for her to have super delegate endorsements, as opposed to the voters, put her over the top.

President Obama will be in NY on Wednesday it was just announced. I think the plan is Hillary clinches Tuesday night and Obama endorses Wednesday and tells Sanders to get with the program.

It's like a post-modern version of "dialing for dollars"....

Poor DC

I wonder why DC chose to make themselves irrelevant. Why not just make it June 7th?
