Why does it make sense that Sanders would win OK? It's not exactly what I would consider a progressive state, though I'll admit I'm not familiar with local politics there. I mean, I'm pretty surprised that he's ahead there.

It's full of angry white people left behind by globalisation, for whom a populist protectionist message probably resonates well.


OK was just called for Sanders, at current reporting he'd net 5 delegates from the state.
 
Ted FUCKING Cruz man

Honestly if you want an easy Hillary win you should be rooting for Cruz to get nominated. Yes he's more scary than Trump but Trump has a real change to win the GE while Cruz has almost 0 chance.
 
This is not a typical speech. She's been out campaigning and giving speeches all over the place. Of course, she could be sick.

y'know, possibilities. But no, we'll go with witch

Just saying what I see dude and i see a 40 a day grandma on a stage croaking on about God knows what, it's painful to pay attention to honestly.
 
The percent difference between Kasich and Trump is like 3% right now in Vermont. I wonder if Kasich can win that state still.
 
They can vote as they want. They usually vote along the %'s of the election in their state. they're there for keeping people like Trump from stealing the nomination.
So it's a double edged sword. It keeps people like Trump in check but horribly imbalances the delegate numbers like Hillary and Sanders
 
Cruz winning Oklahoma is neat. His ground game must have spilled over the border and swayed a few voters. With Kasich having done well in Vermont and New Hampshire and looking to maybe win Ohio, Rubio having some of the delegate math on his side, and Cruz having three wins under his belt, field stays divided and The Donald walks away with it.
 
Rubio is done. Cruz won OK and Texas.

Rubio hasnt won a single taste and Trump is winning with double digits in many states. Rubio, it is a two man race, but it doesnt include you.
 
Clinton pulling away with the populous MA counties.

She's winning it.

So at best Bernie could win 4 states tonight: VT, OK, MN and CO. Which would mean his campaign is on life support but sustainable, and could be revived by some of the upcoming whiter states.

Just depends if the young college kids turn up to caucus or not.
 
Yeah, Virginia housed the capitol of the Confederacy (and when I was a kid they were still calling Martin Luther King day "Lee Jackson King day", because celebrating Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson on the same day is totally cool, honest!), and you'll still see Confederate flags flying around plenty, but it's not really part of the South as most people think it any more.

Northern Virginia has seen a massive boom in population. The other major population center, Hampton Roads, also doesn't feel anything like what you would see in what people think of as the South.

Fifty years ago Virginia was part of the South (but never as much as other Southern states; Virginia voted for Nixon instead of Wallace in 1968, after all), but today it's really not. The state is much closer socially, demographically, politically, etc to Maryland and Delaware than it is to any southern state, even North Carolina.

Oh, I get all that. My wife is from McLean (and went to VT). It'll still always be part of the South, geographically at least. I asked her If it was part of the South after I posted that and she said "Of course. But people in NoVA call it mid-atlantic" :P
 
What's a brokered convention ?

if none of the candidates are able to cross the finish line of total number of delegates, All delegates get tossed up into the air and everyone goes into backrooms cutting deals.

This is why Rubio is so smug not giving a crap. He knows that fix is in for him
 
HEY! The Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo is awesome! Well, the pre party is, I never really cared about the Rodeo itself.

Then again, no one cares about the Rodeo, they care about the concerts.

The group is nice. We have a bunch renting out a room at our apartment complex. While they do drink cheap beer and smoke cigarettes all day, they are nice and kind. Really friendly.
 
Is this guy from TYT serious? Mass voting for Trump scary LOL There is a 0% chance Trump wins Mass in the general. What the fuck is there to be afraid of?
 
Rubio
