After what the stupid party did in Colorado, they will soon be history.

You think that leaving the candidates name off the ballot was a typo?

There are no names.

IT would come off better if Cryin Donald would criticize all the States before the primaries/caucuses that do that rather than just the ones he lost in afterward

Would it have mattered?

Yes, very much so. It wouldn't have changed the rules before these primaries, but it would have been a statement with integrity that people would listen to him now rather than his sounding like the whining loser that he is. He's been running 37% of the vote yet getting 45% of the delegates. With a third the vote he hasn't locked it up. Hmm...no shit ...

Swish, missed it again. You keep dancing, Fred Astaire. The point is that Super delegates dominate the Democrat nomination process. The discussion is about voting versus the party. Republicans as poor as the process is are way more dominated by voting than you are. Your dancing isn't changing that

There you go again, claiming the process for selecting a party nominee is more democratic in the Republican primaries and caucuses, than in the Democrat primaries and caucuses. That is simply not true. Perception is not reality

540 superdelegates, 502 to her, democracy in action!

right, the whole thing is designed to allow the elites to control the selection regardless of the votes of the people.

The good thing is that it is being disclosed during this election cycle. Thank you Donald Trump.

True, but I don't think he realized how corrupt it was until he got in the middle of it. But now everyone knows and that is good for the country.

That is part of the problem he had. Cruz learned the rules ahead of time, he didn't

Trump criticized the rigged nature of the New York primaries both before and after he won the primary, genius.

So, Einstein, sure he's doing it now. Show where he did it before he started crying about Colorado. What a pathetic attempt to defend him. He's criticized for whining so he finally starts saying in advance and you're like there you are, now his cryin doesn't count! Yeah, it does

He isn't losing last I heard. Something like 300 delegates ahead. Calling it what its is isn't whining, I have no idea why you insist on it. No, it wouldn't have mattered because the establishment picked Cruz and he knows it. "The crooked system" looks like it's selling to me and waking a lot of people up.

Campaigns desperately need money for those efforts, and if for-profit corporations are allowed to donate,then they own those politicians. The advantages are too big to expect people to just refrain voluntarily.

So yes, we need to ban all contributions from for-profit corporations for OBVIOUS reasons."

You want to ban money for advertising and get out the vote efforts?

How many times have contributors not gotten what they wanted? For-profit corporations, but not non-profit corporations? So if people set up non-profits to contribute what would be the difference? Your position seems like more nonsense when it it is looked at seriously

Trump picked up almost no extra support after each of 14 or so opponents dropped out. He still averaged around 35% before NY. In New York, his home state, he finally won big. wow.

Sanders will have his Socialist Workers Party past thrown at him in a general election. Sanders has not been attacked yet. Hillary has been attacked since the 1980s and even in NY where she was accused of carpetbagging, she won a US Senate seat twice.

Well, Trump is doing better than the other two so the votes went ...where?

Hillary winning means what to you in NY? NYC is predominately liberal and she had the party behind her.

If Trump kept getting 35% of the vote even when others dropped out, it is obvious where the other votes went. I guess you're not very bright when it comes to this.

 

[Martin Eden Mercury]

Hillary winning means what to you in NY? NYC is predominately liberal and she had the party behind her.

Hillary Clinton is winning with Democrats in a Democratic primary. She has the popular vote on her side as well as the pledged delegate numbers (so far). What is it you think you are saying?

 

[Martin Eden Mercury]

Trump took down the opponents or the opponents self-imploded?

Oh, I see, it was all just coincidence? roflmao

Like I said, you still dont get how Trump is doing it, which pretty much makes you hopeless for ever understanding it.

Trump picked up almost no extra support after each of 14 or so opponents dropped out. He still averaged around 35% before NY. In New York, his home state, he finally won big. wow.

Trump started around 16%, in first place surpassing the previous front runner Jeb! in June. He was said to have a cap at 25%, then blew through that. Then the talk was his cap was 35%, then 45% then 50%, etc.

All of it is simply literati horse shit and anyone with a brain should realize it.

Sanders will have his Socialist Workers Party past thrown at him in a general election. Sanders has not been attacked yet. Hillary has been attacked since the 1980s and even in NY where she was accused of carpetbagging, she won a US Senate seat twice.

Because there is so much to attack on Hillary. Gawd, no one has even spoke of the Rose Law Firm yet, lol.

Bush was big in headlines before the race. Yet he never had the establishment behind him. Many of the others were lightweights and Trump had celebrity. Facts are Trump never got over his average of 35% even when all others dropped out. What does that say about support for him?

I don't think the House will flip either, but I'd give it a 30%-40% chance if Trump is the nominee.

The reason is simple math. The notion that there are few competitive districts is premised upon a "normal" election, i.e. if the vote is fairly close, like 53/47. But the math changes if it's a blowout, like 59/41.

That's because of the way the districts have been gerrymandered. Most Republican districts have smaller majorities than most Democrat districts. That's why here in Florida, Obama can win the state but the Republicans can win most of the districts. If there is a Democrat tidal wave, many of those "safe" Republican districts aren't going to be safe anymore because there is less of a buffer in the GOP districts than in Democrat districts.

If Trump wins, the Republicans will control everything.

Oh, it will be a blowout....in favor of Trump if he is the nominee, unless his opponent is Sanders.

It is amazing how m any people still dont understand how Trump has been so effective at taking down his opponents.

Hillary is a walking 'target rich environment' all by herself.

I hope you haven't bet your house on that.

There have been 61 Trump v Clinton polls. Trump has led in 5. And Clinton's lead is as wide as it has been since Trump became the GOP front runner.

That doesn't contradict what I said. I said:

- He has 37% of the vote so far
- He's in a dogfight and it's not locked up.

You read the first, and the second is obviously going to happen. He's not even close to a majority of the voters, why should he have sewn up the nomination?

I think you mean, The Democrats will control everything...

The thing is, I don't think there's going to be a "blow-out". I think that 45% of the electorate would not vote for Hillary if the Republicans nominated C'thulhu. I think that 45% of the electorate would not vote for a Republican if the Republicans nominated Jesus Christ. So really, you are only fighting over the 10% in the middle.

I think in a Hillary/Trump matchup, it's going to be very close despite what the poll say now.

And all of them have been more than 6 months out, dude.
