Old Hippie Berns Out

Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton, through the sheer force of superdelegates and machine politics, seems to have finally put old Bernie Sanders to bed. As Politico notes:

Hillary Clinton trounced Bernie Sanders in the key states of Florida and Ohio on Tuesday night, pulling away in the delegate race and delivering a full-throated call to arms against Donald Trump in her victory speech.

The former secretary of state appeared to be on the verge of a clean sweep of the five contests of the night. She also scored victories in North Carolina and Illinois. In the fifth state, Missouri, Clinton was leading by about 1,500 votes with all but two precincts reporting early Wednesday morning.

“Tonight it’s clearer than ever that this might be one of the most consequential campaigns of our lifetimes,” Clinton said in a triumphant speech that clearly showed her turning her attention to Trump.

She laid out her standards for President Barack Obama’s successor, and argued that Trump fell far short of them. “Our commander in chief has to be able to defend our country, not embarrass it,” she said, adding that Trump’s vision is a dangerous one.

Can Trump defeat the last socialist standing? What do you think?

Hillary's crimes and thinking she is above the law is the greater embarrassment.
