Republicans have their candidate and the Democrats still have a race to the convention.

Why did they vote as they did in the Republican primary (click here)

People are tired of being disenfranchised from their power within the government. They don't like being held hostage in DC.

The Trump mimics are guaranteed. I hear Rubio is calling Donald Trump a con-man. He thinks it sticks. Really?

Mr. Rubio lives in the future. He always states, the best is yet to come. How long do you have to wait? 20/20?

Hillary Clinton took full command (click here) of the Democratic presidential race on Tuesday as she rolled to major victories over Bernie Sanders in Texas, Virginia and across the South and proved for the first time that she could build a national coalition of racially diverse voters that would be crucial in the November election
Based on results from Democratic primaries and caucuses in 11 states, Mrs. Clinton succeeded in containing Mr. Sanders to states he was expected to win, like Vermont and Oklahoma, and overpowering him in predominantly black and Hispanic areas that were rich in delegates needed for the Democratic nomination.
Mrs. Clinton, who also won Massachusetts and showed notable strength among Southern white voters, came away with a strong delegate lead over Mr. Sanders — notably larger than the one that Barack Obama had over her at this point in the 2008 presidential race....

Super Tuesday is really designed for Republicans since most of their constituency is in the South. The South is the Republican base. I think the Republican race is over. There were record numbers of voters in the Republican primaries most probably due to the Donald Trump candidacy. By all rights, Donald Trump should not have done as well as he did yesterday. 

Today the two Democratic Camps are stating, "Whee, that is finally over.", by for very different reasons. 

Senator Bernie Sanders still has the wind at his back into the part of the nominee process more likely to be attracted to his candidacy. 

Former Senator Hillary Clinton proved her years of experience yesterday and the continuing agenda of our minority members. The rest of the primaries and caucuses will provide her delegates, but, she'll have to earn every one of them.
