    I always cringe when people mention Obama's race as the deciding factor for his election. He was not supported by people simply because they wanted a black man as president and those voted against Obama does not mean they're automatically a racist.

    Hahaha, fair enough.

    I honestly forgot that Land Rover existed but that is a much better comparison, especially if British people disproportionally like her

    I officially regret making that analogy

    I disagree with the latter but this is one of the landmark victories for feminism (albeit really for a branch of white educated elite women). She deserves the praise and I wouldn't want to rain on any woman's parade, they get too much shit in this world. I think we can all agree on that, regardless of whether you'll vote for her or not.

    What kind of car is trump? I suggest a car that's actually a red white and blue dragon that has a machine gun for a mouth.

    According the Jeff Ross, Trump's most sensitive topic is bringing up his bankruptcies.

    Actually not the case at all. My state has been decided already - it's going blue no matter who the candidates ended up being. I would have more of an influence/impact voting third party and helping them get funding possibly.

    Don't forget local elections. Voting third party there matters too.

    Time for a new bad analogy that fails to properly sums up voting Trump vs voting Hillary

    Trump and Hillary... are like onions

    Nah. Still true. You just weren't ever in the business of buying a car.

    Third party funding is a valid consideration though.

    Do we have any Trump supporters in our midst here?

    Hmmm, I think it was Mercedes Benz that helped assassinate those union members in Argentina during the Falklands War. So that's Scott Walker.

    Trump's a hummer. Looks stupid, appeals to hyper-masculine morons, name can double as sexual innendo, terrible for the environment

    Clinton and the DNC could have wrapped up a good portion of Sanders supporters had they ran a fair primary and not been so condescending towards his supporters. But they couldn't even do that. Like the bare minimum asked of them was too much somehow. The did everything they could to give us every reason to believe that she doesn't want, and it used to be she doesn't need, sanders supporters to vote for her in the general. Now that she realizes she probably does need us, it's still somehow done so in spite and arrogance. So, no, I don't feel any obligation to vote for clinton and the DNC just because the competition is Trump.
     
  16. I think the polls say they have wrapped up over 80% of the Sanders supporters already. I don't think that's a concern. There are more undecides this year than usual, and that, however, is.

    Be my alibi?

    I feel this is most accurate car comparisons for Trump.

    In all honesty, I feel this is going to be a landslide victory for Clinton, even with this bad press she's been getting

    If I remember right, that Pew poll only gave responders Clinton or Trump options, leaving out Jill Stein or others or Johnson *gag*. I could be wrong though. Have there been more polls released since then?

    im really interested in knowing how many people are really out there that are truly undecided in this election.
     
  23. My best guess right now is that a) Clinton wins b) voter turnout is historically low and c) Clinton only serves one term
