What was GDP like right before Michigan?

Wasn't here then, were the Hillary people just as arrogant and mean spirited then as they are now prior to the New York primary?

So I guess they had a big serving of crow the next day, in my mind I know Bernie doesn't need to win NY but I feel like I will be bummed out if he doesn't squeak one out since we put so much effort into NY, 3 million calls over the weekend is no small feat, it may be record setting

that Bernie doesn't have to win NY but Hillary sure does. The media's been telling us all along that Hillary is going to win NY. It's a closed primary and she beat Obama by 17 pts. in 2008. If she doesn't win they can't very well say that they weren't surprised after all they've never said Sanders was going to win NY.

Only people who voted in 2012 were included and it was an automated voice dialer calling landlines, I think that skews it

A similar vibe to what we're seeing right now.
Many hushed up in a hurry when Nate Silver ate crow.
