this election is over on Tuesday. He can't only win 2-3 states and still argue viability.

There are 4 more up for grabs. If she takes just one of those, it's a huge night for her. If she takes two of those, she has this all wrapped up. If she takes three or all four of those, he should just call it off then.

All that said, I really just don't know what to expect in those four states. I know Saturday's performance certainly did not hurt her case at all. It's starting to look pretty good in Massachusetts, but I'm not totally confident on that yet. I feel like Oklahoma is going to be a win. I know he has made it close there, but I just have a good feeling about that one. He could very well take those two states, but my confidence is higher in those two. In Minnesota and Colorado.. It's not that I don't feel confident, per day, it's just that I literally have no idea at all what to expect. I think those two will be close, but just don't know how close.

I'm curious how those races turn out. He's spent a lot of time in both and so if he doesn't win or even win convincingly then that is certainly the end of his campaign. What do you think will happen there?

A Hillary supporter came by yesterday afternoon (Sunday). She was working our neighborhood urging people to caucus Tuesday for Hillary.

I told her that all of our family will be doing just that Tuesday night. We have two daughters - 18 and 20 years old and this will be the first time they vote in a presidential primary. I've checked on the local Democratic website to be sure they're registered as Democrats as my younger daughter turned 18 on February 23.

The race here is going to be very, very close. Bernie's people have been working really hard in Denver but Hillary is very organized here as well. According to the volunteer, our neighborhood is solidly for Hillary.

I'll post tomorrow night after caucusing on how it went.

POTUS Markets. As the country preps for Super Tuesday on March 1, Hillary Clinton holds a significant lead over all of the current candidates in the odds to be the next U.S. President. Clinton currently holds 56% odds to be the next POTUS, followed by Trump at 25%, Rubio at 11%, Sanders at 6% and Cruz at 1%.
