Who's got the edge?
Who's got the edge? Self-explanatory numbers:
This video from a helicopter** shows the line for Bernie snaking all around Riverfront Park, across bridges, down sidewalks, across more bridges.... Nearly 10k people showed up for a venue that holds 5k.
Needless to say, Hillary will automatically "win" the D nomination regardless of votes. Romney will automatically "win" the R nomination without even running.
And now we have a third example: RRS Henry Worsley will automatically "win" the boat nomination despite losing the vote.
Boaty McBoatface = Trumpy McTrumpface = Bernie McBernface.
Gonna be a WHOLE LOT of pissed people.

Later note after listening to some of Sanders's speech: He talks about inequality but his appeal to these mostly college-age listeners is just standard D boilerplate, and will actually INCREASE inequality. He doesn't mention the need to return industry, and briefly bounces off the banksters. Mainly he pushes Free College and More Money For Education. In other words, he wants to ENRICH the teacher union thugs and ENRICH college administrators. In most states, these two groups are the main drivers of standard D politics.
Sanders doesn't even try to speak for the interests of ordinary men, both white and black, who have been decimated by Immigration, Free Trade, Environment, and Banksters. Trump owns those groups exclusively.
In other words, Sanders isn't an
ideological opponent of the R/D establishment; he's just a
personal opponent of Hillary.
