Sounds like someone is not as confident as he would have everyone believe.

3. I think that they are afraid the superdelegates will go with Hillary if she continues her campaign.
There are so many posts in GD-P lately calling for the superdelegates to not overturn "the will of the people" that I have to assume that they are afraid that Hillary will receive enough superdelegates to win the nomination.

5. The will of the people?
Who did Bill Richardson's state support?

They are hypocrites to support superdelegate
for doing what they do not want the rest to
do.

4. They want Hillary to drop out so they don't have to face what the Wright damage has done
The PA primary is going to show a major drop in O support, as will the following ones. If H drops out it doesn't matter. If she stays in she will gain more delegates and can make the case of electablity to the delegates.

Both pledged and supers can vote for whoever they want to, boy wonder doesn't have it sewn up. That is why he and his followers are nervous.

It would be sweetness and light if Hillary won PA big. If O doesn't get at least 15% he gets NO DELEGATES, the 181 delegates in PA would put Hillary in the lead.

O is getting 90% of the black vote, I am not sure what the demographics are in PA, but it could happen that he get less than 15%.

9. Zero wants another win by default..
When Zero falters his operatives come to the rescue by running the opposition off with a scandal and out of the race..

How do you think he got to be State Senator and a US Senator..

Only this time, the dirt is being exposed on himself, while his competitor skates!

8. Because he isn't winning. You don't stop the NASCAR race twenty laps from
the finish line and say "That's IT!" do you?

That's what they want to do, though. Because he's ahead right now.

But nearsies only count in hand grenades and horse shoes.

If you aren't at 2025, you don't WIN this game.
