  1. Looking at crosstabs, that White % is actually bad for Trump.

    Romney, I believe, was at like 58. Shows him at 49%.
     
  2. Yeah, I was happy to have seen a looooot of people go off on Twitter about it or I was going to be quite angry.
     
  3. 50% say vote is more for Clinton vs 44% say against Trump.

    Didn't expect that.

    Romney was only at 58 percent? That's astounding and borderline unbelievable.

    like how can that writer sit there and say how bad it is that all these talk show hosts are strictly socially liberal without considering why. maybe it's because, idunno, the right is an abomination when it comes to social issues

  7. I was wrong, it was 59%.
    Now, of the 92,934,452 white votes Romney won 59 percent -- or 54,831,326. Obama won 39 percent or a total of 36,244,436.

    One of the worst things about the Douthat article is him and his peers all over Twitter today saying "Told ya so! You proved my point!" when the article is criticized.

  9. I've read some of his other stuff in the past. I'm trying to be nice in saying I'm not a fan.

  10. Given the photos, may have been the single black voter in the audience.

    I'm next to the NY Times building. Maybe I could find that guy and give him a wedgie.

  13. Odds of after him losing him saying he still thinks Obama wasn't born here? It seems likely.
     


  14. HOW THE FUCK IS THIS FUCKING BEING FUCKING ASKED? WHAT THE FUCK.
     
  15. More crosstabs (NBC/WSJ) I see that are good news:

    Clinton +6 among whites w/college degrees. Romney beat Obama +14.
     
  16. The Trump 40% ceiling remains.
     


  17. Going after Obama was a really dumb political move.

    It lines up perfectly with the underlying question at the heart of this country: are black people human? The country has responded with a resounding "no".

    How is Mike Pence that high? He's just Donald Trump who actually means what he says.
     
  21. I don't even know what to say beside just be cripplingly depressed. Between this and the CNN chyron last night.

    I really don't get ~15 percent of people who like Obama and don't like Hillary.

    Are there any of those people on this thread that can explain to me the difference between them that causes you to like Obama but dislike Hillary?
     
  23. I guess when you put a homophobic turd next to Donald Trump you end up looking better? No clue at all.

    I never believe any of it. Corrupt cops deserve to die more than anyone. There is nothing more threatening to a society than a dirty pig with impunity.
