Twists and Turns
Remember the reporter stating over a month ago this race would have many twists and turns until the convention? I can't remember which reporter made that statement, but I think whomever stated that should be interviewed to determine what inside knowledge he has, if any, or is he like psychic?

2. Yes, you would think so
but it was the way he said it... wish I could remember who it was that said it and exactly when. It was as if he knew more than he was saying. Who knows, but my tin foil hat shot beams across the sky when he made the statement...

4. It was almost sinister...and a bit too early to have been
making the statement -

Additional question here:

What is the earliest the media began talking of the "Super Delegates"? When I first heard the talk, I asked myself, "What is really going on here?" because normally when a candidate has a clear lead the other candidate backs out and their delegates are shifted to the leader. So, why early in this campaign season did everyone assume HRC would not do the same? Had the talk not been a major media event, there would have been no question, we would have a nominee already. So, why has this game been played this way? Some may say it is just insurance in case any skeletons are brought out, but it is just too strange. Especially the timing of it all.
