Well, it's not good... but realistically she's only got +20 delegate lead from this so far (from a total of 291 delegates). there's still Cali (546), Pensylvania (210), and New Jersey (142).

And Sander's keeps gaining in the national polls (they're neck n neck now). Look at this trend, it's at least evidence of his momentum:

If his gain in the national polls is representative of the voting population of any of the upcoming states (especially the three big ones left) and the Bern trend continues, then Bernie will gain lots of ground.
There's no denying he has an uphill battle, though. Clinton has maintained a steady 10pt lead on Sanders in California. Things may change once the phonebankers/canvasers hit California and activate all the quiet and timid Sanders supporters.
