Some Chick 'Made History' On Super Tuesday, We Guess Wonkette

Maybe you do not like her. Maybe you hate her. Maybe you think she is untrustworthy, unlikable, unelectable, unwhateverable. She is too stiff and double-entendre frigid. She is too crybaby emotional and shouty and shrill. She travelgated to Whitewater to drown-murder Vince Foster in a lesbian rage, with her headband. She private-jetted to Benghazi to lie about four dead Americans, in her secret email faxes to her favorite yoga pals while watching “The Good Wife” and snacking on gefilte fish. She’s been around too long and done too much, and she’s accomplished nothing except marrying well. She is the embodiment of evil in a pantsuit.

But on Super Tuesday, Madam First Lady Senator Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton Esquire made some motherfuckin’ history, y’all.

She won seven states — Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Massachusetts, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia — and with one exception, she did so very decisively. Like, landslide decisively:

After Super Tuesday Losses, Bernie Sanders Is in a Whole Lot of Trouble Mother Jones

After weeks of having the entire cast of MSNBC work daily to convince us that Bernie Sanders was destined (for lack of a more validated verb) to deliver a Super Tuesday surprise, we're hapy to report that it didn't come. Even Rachel Maddow turned over a major segment of her show to making the case why Sanders was about to deliver a jaw-dropping performance on March 1. The following day, the PPP polls pretty much blew her theory out of the water, as it became obvious that MSNBC had popped a few pills in their koolaid. Even after Saturday's South Carolina win, hope flamed brightly with the MSNBC crowd for their guru.

Mother Jones is equally progressive -- if not more so than MSNBC, which has also become the Trump machine. But Mojo keeps their eye on the ball and doesn't go delusional.

Tuesday's results put Sanders in a difficult position as the campaign shifts into high gear this month, because they challenge the underlying theory of how he can win. The premise of his underdog campaign was that he could score a few early victories and build momentum for states down the road. Once voters in those states saw he was the real deal, the thinking went, they'd give his candidacy a second look. Those early victories were essential to expanding his coalition and, to a lesser degree, to convincing at-large superdelegates to join his side. To put it bluntly: If Sanders can't win a white liberal state like Massachusetts, there aren't too many other states he can.

Hillary Clinton's Got This FiveThirtyEight

To borrow a phrase from Dan Rather, Hillary Clinton swept through the South like a big wheel through a delta cotton field on Super Tuesday. She won seven states total, including Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia in the South. She also won Massachusetts and American Samoa. Bernie Sanders emerged victorious in four states (Colorado, Minnesota, Oklahoma and Vermont), but his victories tended to come by smaller margins and in smaller states. The end result is that Clinton has a clear path to winning the nomination, and Sanders’s only hope to derail her is for something very unusual to happen.

To date, Sanders can only win in states that are 90% white. On Super Tuesday, Hillary Clinton won 93% of black voters in Alabama; her worst performance was in Oklahoma where she won 'only' 71% of black voters and lost to Sanders.

Clinton also dominated with Latinos, beating Sanders by 42 pts in Texas. Hillary's commanding lead among Latinos and Hispanics bodes very well for her performances in Arizona, California, Florida and New Mexico.
