When I wrote above that Trump was a loser it was because it seemed then as though Kasich was going to be the night's Republican winner.

I kinda want Trump to win just to see what happens.

Can't wait to see how they'll decorate the WH. He'll proly carve his initials somewhere in the woodwork, cause, you know he's got this thing about branding.

But yeah, Cruz is crazy scary. Most of them are, imho. Kasich seems most sane of the bunch that's left.

Sanders routed Clinton, receiving almost twice as much votes as Clinton. The media is exquisitely equanimous. The very picture of restraint. Sober analysis all the way! :lol2: :lol2:

This presidential election thing this year reminds me of this band for some reason.

They are talking about Trump winning. Obviously that's a fair description.

Yes they are talking about Trump winning, plus any other implied implications that can tied in.

They are sounding the dog whistles, pulling the good liberals triggers.

And the 'bernie bros' are targets also.

Huffpo is a Clinton machine tool.

(I agree that Trump is racist, xenophobic and sexist, but his followers are are generally more frustrated with the status-quo rather than being driven by racism and xenophobia. The sexist tag may be directed at least somewhat toward Sanders.) A la the Madeline Albright support line about there being a special place in Hell for women that do not vote for Clinton.

They could still get him out of office.
But instead, they want mass death.
Don’t forget that.

If Kasich is on the ticket it will only be to carry the state of Ohio.

It's incredible listening to what pundits on "The Morning Joe" are forced to talk about. The Walton family having more wealth than the bottom 40% of the U.S. population combined while so many Walmart employees are on welfare?

I'll vote for Sanders in the primary, demonstrate at the DNC, and vote Jill Stein in the general election.

Jill Stein would be a wise choice, but I doubt she's garner half the votes Bernie will.
I suppose I'm still jaded by Nader's campaign.

God that's a great video, Joe. Great to see you!

The tide that has to be turned is the minority vote. Hillary still way ahead among black voters. But some heavyweights are now weighing in against her and for Sanders. If that has the intended effect, the election gets interesting:

Guess this could fit here, or in the Clinton thread ..

Now might be a good time to talk about Gloria Steinem’s time as a CIA asset… - "In 1959, Gloria Steinem attended the communist-sponsored World Youth Festival in Vienna as the head of the Independent Service for Information, a CIA front." (dangerousminds.net)

Looks like Clinton took more delegates from New Hampshire than Sanders. You have to love representative democracy.
