Don't believe the hype about Hillary's uuuuge delegate lead...

She needed to knock Bernie out by March 15th. There is NO way that happens now. This very much could change the votes in a lot of the north. Look out Ohio. The south is not going to pick our nominee.

A lot of people seem to have forgotten this. I also saw someone say that "Bernie will win with Democratoc states." This didn't work for Hillary in 2008.

(Obama Purple, Hillary....Tan? I don't know what color that actually is. Strange choices)

Obama was able to win in three distinct regions, the deep south, and the north west and split the New England states.
