Yup

Hey, it worked for The Big Dog.

I for one will be very happy with Hillary setting the pace, which I suspect she will.

If she wins, Sanders will use his NH win as the magic momentum. If she loses he will say that this is his momentum.

In reality, SC and super tuesday states aren't going to change much due to demographics.

But it will be very nice to have the Clinton win!

Not for nothing, imo, since the media's objective is An Exciting Horse Race.

Also, there's the campaign moral factor to consider. The volunteers have worked so hard, it would be great to have some tangibly good return on their efforts.

I posted this yesterday. I don't see a path for Sanders.

Superdelegates may always (up through the convention) change their allegiance, and have a habit of backing the leader of a given moment. Their stated preferences mean nothing this early in the race.

Plus, it might be nice to let the voters actually, y'know, vote first before you arrogantly declare a coronation.

The proof will come after the Carolinas and there will not be split the delegate counts. Hillary's numbers will start jumping and she will achieve the needed count and then on to the convention where the actual delegates will vote.

These two states are tailor-made for him. The rest of the United States is COMPLETELY different from Iowa and New Hampshire.

Spot on.

However a win is not solely about delegates in this case. its a way to set the narrative and get momentum. I am pretty confident Hillary will win and Bernie's revolution will deflate like a balloon.
