Tied in Georgia. Where it's gone Republican since 1996.

 

Man, I really hate Keynes. I have to tell you.

 

Oh, okay. I read that incorrectly. My bad.

 

Yeah, even Rubio would not have had a ton of trouble. His "positive message" would have outweighed a lot of his negatives

 

I actually don't. I'm lukewarm. But I do hate people that cite economists or theorists and completely fuck up their positions. I mean, I don't even know how one can gloss over Keynes' Wiki page and still think he's a laissez faire fella.

 

That would have been troublesome because he wants to repeal Roe V Wade
ABC's Stephanopoulos Pushes Kasich On The Hypocrisy Of His Stance On Abortion

 

Rubio was my pick before the primary started, especially after he showed a great deal more polish than previous years. And I agree that he would have handled Clinton fairly easily. But Christie murdered him in that one debate; had Trump not monopolized the Republican news coverage by that point, that could have been a career-ender for Marco.

 

I don't think any left-leaning voter should be angry with Trump. He was the ideal candidate-- horrible unfavorable ratings and we're not even sure if he's conservative on many issues. I'd be pretty surprised if he was actually pro-life.

 

but but but the bernie bros!!!

 

God those numbers.

 

91%?

That's incredible. And shocking to me.

 

i think this whole khan family thing has been maybe the single biggest disaster for trump imaginable.

 

The Trump being secretly liberal conspiracy was a fun one, especially with his VP promising to make abortion illegal.

 

Breitbart is basically the only place I see trying to defend him over it. In their typical horrific way.

 

91% of the people they polled, it's a generalization which doesn't accurately reflect the entire population. My guess is it would be around 70-80%

 

Yeah and every new reaction from his camp just makes his situation even more untenable.

 

PS: You see this?

If you read his writings, there is some stuff in there that surpasses even Marx, but he returns to the market again and again, and these idealist "animal spirits", which hem in the genuine breakthroughs.

 

Pretty clear that polls reflect opinion of the population better than straight up guesses do.

 

I said the other day HRC will win easily if she just gets a bunch of people you can't insult (vets & widows, civil rights activists, the founding fathers, etc) to insult trump

 

hillary rally thats actually a seance to communicate with washington would be historic
