Ill be very surprised if NC goes blue. We barely went blue for Obama in 2008. Obama won NC by around1%. And we went back red in 2012. Id love for my state to go blue, but Im not counting on it.

Obama lost by 2% in 2012. That being said I consider North Carolina to the Democrats what Pennsylvania is to Republicans. Basically sure you may win it in a landslide but they will be the most meaningless electoral points you get and not have any significance other then bragging rights

Well, I have no shame in saying I went with Hilary this morning when I voted. I was for Sanders for a while but that thing seems to have caved in.

This will be me for the California primary. Clinton is going to be the nominee, I feel there's no point in voting against her because a loss in California probably won't deter her path at all unless Bernie wins by like 70% or more, but could enable the Bernie or Bust crowd. She's already won the primary, but needs to win California decisively to unite the party faster.

Of course, all this is assuming Bernie won't just drop out before then, which at this point I don't think he will.

I'm a noob in regards to all this legal lingo, so what does that mean?

Just that a judge scheduled a discovery timeline. Its not really a big deal. Its a scheduling order.

Seriously what is Clinton smoking, why is she tying her personal brand to the Bush family.

Lord, this is an insanely stupid idea.

Clinton nonprofit scandal.

 

[Bruce Banner]

After several months of Clinton saying it's a "security inquiry"
In regards to her private server to the media. FBI Director Comey came out Wednesday and said he has no idea what that is and pretty much said it was an investigation. We all know that what it is, just surprised the director went out and said that. Figured he wouldn't want to pull more eyes on this case until a decision is made.

 

[MagnarTheGreat]

The Democratic presidential front-runner said that she will be the party's nominee, because she's got an "insurmountable" number of pledged delegates and has received millions more votes overall.

"I will be the nominee for my party, Chris. That is already done, in effect," she said. "There is no way that I won't be."

Clinton wouldn't say whether Sanders was being considered for her running mate and said the Vermont senator needs to "do his part" to unify the party going into November.

She highlighted her role in unifying Democrats -- including the 40% of Clinton supporters who had said they wouldn't support Barack Obama if he won the party's nomination -- in 2008, the last close Democratic nominating contest.

She ain't wrong about any of it.

Felt fine voting for her by mail today. We need a Dem victory to keep the White House and SCOTUS from falling to madness.

I don't need someone I would want to grab a beer with, nor do I want to risk losing for the sake of ideological purity.

Oh boy.

Clinton now losing to Trump in polls according to Real Clear Politics

Let's wait and see what happens after she clinches the nomination and both her and Trump get their running mates before we commence freakout. Trump is definitely getting a boost because his party is falling in line behind him, while the fight between Bernie and Hillary still isn't over just yet.

It's very typical that the losing candidate polls better in a lot or all of May. This happened with McCain and Romney.

 

[GreenKToo]

This has all been Fascinating, on both sides.

Lord, this is an insanely stupid idea.

This is year where Donald Trump is a frontrunner and possible incumbent to the presidency. Apparently including stupidity in your campaign is a positive, nowadays. If she could convince GW Bush to be her running mate she'd probably win by a landslide.

 

[craigdbfan]

He's one of the main representations of everything that's wrong with the establishment. It would be a sure fire way to lose in a landslide that much is for sure.

Trump would eat shell shocked Georgie into the final circle of madness which is why he didn't even defend his own goofy bro Low Energy.

Morning Joe was pretty savage on Hillary this morning. The Young Turks as well, but that one goes without saying.

Come and see

 

[GREEN =w= DAY]

when will this woman finally get indicted?

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

Honestly... Can anyone really say they give two bowel movements about this E-mail thing? Lord knows I don't.

 

[MagnarTheGreat]

The Clinton's have always been survivors. It's something that I've liked about them. 25 years of the machine trying to grind them down and they keep on trucking.

I only care about it if she didn't learn from it....it was stupid, and should have never happened, she should know better. Hopefully now she does.
