Remember early last year when we all thought Jeb! vs Hillary was a shoe-in?

I mean, Hillary is still likely taking the Democrat primary, but on the Republican side...hoo lawdy.

If Cruz ever drops out, they should be.

To be fair, though, I still think Cruz voters would evenly split between Trump and Rubio.

This election really did so that you don't need a lot of money to run a campaign. Pretty damn crazy. I really wonder if Rubio is going to go further to the right otherwise it might be impossible for him to win.

Welllllll...you don't need a lot of money if you are a celebrity before you get into the race. We're not dealing with a situation that's happened before. Reagan was actor, of course, but that didn't compare because he had long since entered politics.

I am posting it here because the thread got locked for some strange reason, but as a Hispanic american, I find this upsetting:



On Saturday, the Nevada Democratic caucus resulted in a victory for Hillary Clinton, with multiple outlets reporting that the former Secretary of State was the winner. Shortly after Clinton's victory was declared, one of her most vocal and famous supporters, actress America Ferrera, alleged Bernie Sanders supporters chanted racially charged remarks during a rally in Nevada. Ferrera took to Twitter to claim that Sanders supporters at Harrah's casino had interrupted efforts by civil rights leader and Clinton supporter Dolores Huerta to provide a Spanish translation with chants of "English only."

I would have thought Democrats were above this behavior. :/

Cruz pulls back into the lead.

I really wish Carson dropped out so Cruz picked up some of that support. Fuck Rubio, man. Fuck omg.

Sadly, there is still plenty of racism on the Democratic side of things too. Still a very very long way to go. :(


Also, can someone explain to me the "Tiny children are not horses" line that pixel Trump just said? I don't remember that one. :X

Plus, my son is behind my shoulder yelling at pixel Trump. :p

I'm kind of impressed by Rubio's weird gravity. No matter how terrible he is, the inertia just keeps pulling people back.

Really happy that Hills won tonight. Hope she puts this to bed in another week and out national nightmare finally comes to a close. By which I means starts, because Republicans.

This race has a lot of rubberbanding. It's like the motorstorm of politics.

Although, Jeb Bush spend a ton of money and it didn't do a thing. Clearly all that much money isn't going to push him forward and it seems money alone won't beat a person like Trump, and that many people clearly don't want an establishment candidate. At the same time many parts of the GOP doesn't want Trump either. Getting rid of Kasich and Ben might help counter him or if the rest of the GOP rally behind a candidate . I don't see Trump getting around 40-50% of the GOP vote in some cases.

I think some of the candidates can mix and message of being an insider and able to change the government by weakening it.

Jeb's in a funky spot, he's really raised too much money to drop-out. If Marco had a strong 2nd place, I'd say then he could be pressured too, but barely 2nd/3rd and Bush will use that as an excuse. I don't see Bush dropping out until at LEAST post Florida.

A friend of mine brought up a good point: I wonder if Trump is pissed that his parade is getting rained upon by a shooting here in Columbia.

This is the worst outcome, ugh. Rubio ahead of Cruz, Kasich ahead of Bush.

But how amazing is the rejection of W? Fucking glorious. Bury that man.
