Edited to add my comments: I rate it Poor to Fair. There is really too much calling people names, calling Democratic politicians liars to really have much intelligent discussion.

Fun!

Mathematically challenged dip shits!

(19,877 posts)3. Can he reach pledged delegate target?
morningfog
(18,115 posts)4. He is not yet mathematically eleminated.
Your question confirms that.
JaneyVee
(19,877 posts)6. Sure he is. He cannot reach pledged delegate target.
The supers will put the one with most dels and pop vote over the edge.
morningfog
(18,115 posts)7. Those are separate questions.
God, this is tedious.
Whether he is politically non-viable is a wholly different question than whether he is mathematically eliminated.
And you last sentence is problematic as well. It is conceivable and mathematically possible, albeit not likely, that one candidate could take the pop vote, and the other the pledged delegate race.
