    Seems like no matter how much the whippersnappers prefer Bernie over Hillary, they aren't going for Trump:

    I think most will stay home, shut out of the process.

    Agreed, no big shock if they don't vote (they usually don't).

    The hill just posted a national poll where Trump and Hillary are statistically tied

    How many electoral votes is that worth?

    How many electoral votes did W get in 2004? 2008 might be the outlier because Obama is a rock star candidate. Even so, in 2012 Romney won back states that changed hands to Obama in 2008. W won 286, and that might be as good a guess for this election.

    I'm not quite following you. This was in response to you claiming that Hillary had better head to heads, now when it's closer, you talk about electoral votes?

    So tell me what you want to debate. The electoral votes or polls?

    All I was saying was that national polls don't mean much ever, and especially not at this stage. The distribution of votes matters. Ted Cruz might win Mississippi in a landslide, but he's going to lose in a landslide in other places.

    But hey, if seeing your candidate trailing in a national poll makes you happy, enjoy.

    Sure, if we are guessing, anything between 0 and 538 is a valid guess.

    I will say this. Trump will put many blue states in play in the general. Places that are deeply red have no shot of turning Blue.

    I definitely agree about the polling not meaning much right now, especially with the major blood bath during the primary. The season is far from over. It's only just begun, imo

    Nah. I'm "guessing" Hawaii votes for whoever the Democrats foist on us. That's a start.

    Jesus Christ, that was funny as fuck. Remind me why ANYONE in their right mind wants this lying hag to be president?

    I mean, Bernie's full of bullshit. But at least he's honest about it.

    And another reason not to like her:



    Well said. From now until November is going to be very interesting indeed.

    For the cultists: why do people hate her, think she's a liar, etc., but not Bernie and many many others? It's not just the D next to her name.

    I have no interest in debating this subject at this particular time beyond simply saying this: there's a difference from being a liar like Hillary, who denies she ever did anything bad/flip-flopped/lied/made mistakes, etc...and being just plain out of touch with reality and basic Economics 101, like Bernie.

    Wanna call Bernie "naive"? Sure. But a liar? I don't see it. Not on the scale of Hillary.

    When John Kerry ran, he was painted as a flip-flopper, but not a liar.

    Obama and Pelosi/Reid lied us into a still unpopular health care scam. But still, they're not considered liars like Hilar is.

    They claim W lied us into war but nothing Hiliar can do is lying.

    I wrote in a post somewhere that the RCP average of polls had Hiliar over Trump by over 10 points a while back, then it was 9.9, then 9.3.

    Now it's 8.5.

    The republican I like best of the 17 who started is Kasich, and he looks to be the most electable candidate against Hiliar.

    Four years ago today, Obama led Romney by 1.8%.
