I love it. Between the dems and the GOP it really is like they're running for the presidency of two different countries.

I want to make a thread. My first instinct is to wait till we have the identity of the person in question to avoid skepticism, but my second is that maybe that person's name doesn't need to get plastered across the internet. Thoughts?
Here are the headlines we'll be getting on the eve of primary days for the next few months. Either,
1. Clinton's looking into shaking up her campaign!
2. The FBI is still looking into Clinton's emails!
3. Clinton's campaign is in a downward spiral!
Sometimes even all three! All while the shit Sanders' campaign does is forgiven all in the hopes of stroking that horse race narrative.

That doesn't seem to matter at all. I mean, go back and look at the data breach thread.

Don't bother. I can already tell you how it ends.

Personally I think the thread will just become a shit show as any thread about Bernie/Hillary does, but if you want to make the thread I guess there's always room for one more.

Okay, Poligaf, let's say Republicans broker their convention. Which establishment candidate gets the nod?

Well too late. I just want to get more eyes on this thing, regardless of how the actual dialogue goes. Its important stuff like that is seen
With Rubio fucking up nigh-daily now, I'd say the most likely would still have to be Bush. But that's not to say I think it happens... I still think Trump wins.

Ultimately wouldn't matter because if that happens they're losing badly against either dem.
You're right of course, but I'm also not shocked that the deflection started within the first 5 posts either.
Damn the boy is still shook. WOW!
Christie should be tried for murder not fraud.

Is Bloomberg actually serious? I don't know if I can handle the entire election being this level of chaos...
What is this story? Haven't heard it.
It'd be the perfect opportunity for him to win the whole enchilada. No way does he pass that up.

Incredible. Parallels to Ron Paul fans are getting stronger every day.

Is there really room for two New York values billionaires who got rich by plastering their name all over things?

Is Marco just going to keep doing this no matter how many friends he loses or people he leaves dead and bloodied along the way, just so he can make a name for himself, no matter how many friends he loses or people he leaves dead and bloodied along the way?

When considering both his policy and electability, I think I had always considered Rubio the scariest candidate. These recent meltdowns have me smiling.
Only if Sanders wins. I can't blame him for jumping in if that were to happen.
Kasich is their only hope. They'll do anything to win, but they won't do that.

I like Kasich, but me thinks he doesn't have chance to get the nom. He's a no-name to many southern households.
Doesn't sound like a headline we'd be hearing on the eve of every primary day. Probably just once if it ever happens.
Have you met Marco Rubio?
It'll be funny to see the GOP faction that ran away from Bush run back to him after pushing him to drop out.
I love this campaign season.

Kasich is a scold and a wet blanket. Who looks terrible angry. He's also the easiest dude left in the race to tick off.
He's not Reagan to his own Goldwater.
The problem is that the establishment (aka the Kochs) hate him. And his net favorable are barely above positive with the GOP voters for the same reason - he gives real answers to some questions that aren't what the base wants to hear.

He is not braggadocious enough for the current GOP field to get any airtime.
That said I wouldn't be shocked if he ended up as VP pick as he hasn't really made any enemies and has theoretical Ohio bonus points.

Kasich is probably the most reasonable candidate up there compared to the others.

How is somebody who served 18 years in the House, is running for President his second time, has all the "right" positions on immigration, etc., hosted a show on Fox News for six years, and worked for Lehman Brothers not an establishment candidate?
EDIT: Endorsed by Trent Lott, Arnold Schwarzenegger, John Sununu, Dick Armey
This is why he's scary. People will project any kind of damn thing they like onto him.
Case in fucking point.

You are a mess for that Nevada story, Neo.
Sanders kind of won already? I mean, he has already created a political movement that hopefully will see the results in whoever the Dem nominee is in 4 or 8 years. The Dems will be more like Sanders and less like Clinton from now on.

PJ O'Rourke is 68??
Because the "establishment" (aka the money/donors) are avoiding him like the plague. They coalesced around Jeb Bush, for fuck's sake. JEB!
Ouch. Hilldawg getting murdered in that demo.

Interesting stats from NH in 2008: Obama got 60% of the 18-24 vote and won that demographic handily, but lost the 25-29 vote to Hillary. Obama had 35% among that bracket while Hillary had 37%. Hillary also won every age bracket 40 & up. I know Sanders has a healthy lead in NH, but I'm curious to see if Hillary still wins among older voters. Since it's pretty much a foregone conclusion that Bernie will win, I think just about the only thing that could hurt Hillary is if she loses the 65+ demographic as well, allowing for the narrative that Bernie isn't just relying on the youth vote. Otherwise, I can't see any results in NH really shaking things up on the dem side. I guess if Hillary finishes within 10 or maybe 12 points of Sanders that would help, but it seems unlikely at this point.
edit- if that's how Hillary's faring among 18-34 year old women, is it possible that Bernie will crack 90% support among men in that age range?

I wish PD was around so he could answer for Rick Snyder's bullshit in Flint. I would have put him on full blast.
