Do the Pundits know that none of the Super Tuesday primary/caucus states are winner take all? I guess not as they predict that Super Tuesday will be a Trump and Clinton rout. Sorry folks, it has nothing to do with winning and losing. It has to do with delegates and whether you can get to the 15% or 20% threshold in the proportional states. Unless a candidate wins the state by the winner take all threshold like 67% in Tennessee, which is never going to happen with so many candidates still in the GOP race, its all about meeting the requirements to get delegates. It is a much easier proposition for Hillary Clinton and she just has one opponent and hardly one at that.

Remember, the real number to look for is 20%. In some states its 15%. That is what qualifies a candidate to get any delegates. Thus, Carson and Kasich are an afterthought and should really start thinking about packing up and heading home.

On Tuesday, more delegates will be awarded than on any other day of the presidential race. About half of the delegates needed for a Republican candidate to win the nomination are at stake, plus about a third for Democrats. In roughly a dozen state races, Republican front-runner Donald Trump and Democratic leader Hillary Clinton seem poised to win in landslides that could render them nearly inevitable.

The Politico is playing the spin game too .. Trump, Clinton to run riot on Super Tuesday. Sorry, but the wins really don’t matter, especially in close races. You will hear all kinds of hoopla that the GOP race is over because Trump won so many states, but we all need to check out the number of delegates at evenings end. That will be the real story. Trump will most likely garner the most, if the polls are correct, but just how wide will the margin be?

Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are already beating their rivals. On Super Tuesday, insiders predict, they’ll all but bury them.

Members of The POLITICO Caucus — a panel of strategists, party leaders, activists and elected officials in four key March-voting states — expect both Clinton and Trump to romp through the majority of Tuesday’s primaries and caucuses. And a number even suggested that running the table on Super Tuesday, or something close to it, could make both front-runners nearly impossible to catch in the race for their parties’ nomination.
