Do you think I could call off on my 2nd day of work because I need to watch the results come in? Like....would they approve that, you think?
No

Just watch the guy in the other cubicle that you said was cute or something

And imagine his veins and arteries are like graphs with red and blue lines

It works out
 
She won the non white vote in IW , if she does so in NH I doubt Bernie is capable in SC.

The entance polls said that, but we dont have official results.

All I have seen is that Sanders won 15 out of 20 highly hispanic precincts.

Still, he lost the non-white vote 34 to 54% which is not a terrible number consider that he still has room to grow. We will see after Nevada.
 
According to the NBC poll in the link I posted earlier on the page, Bernie's getting killed in those demos.

Which is the same poll you refrence. His numbers with whites are masking the problem he has demographically. His message is having a hard time breaking racial barriers, as well as age ones.

the 50% 18-24 black voters for Clinton is nuts

and they werent even old enough to vote 8 years ago!

i expect it to drop come the southern states but still, the Clinton name still holds strong.

65% for ages 25 and older is interesting considering the the iffy history with Clinton's support for questionable policies

Depends on your field, but in general missing a day during the first 2 weeks that wasn't disclosed before hiring isn't a great look.
 
No, I just think a malfunctioning robot will be easy to beat in the general. Especially if he winds up going against someone able to speak intelligently on issues off the cuff.

I don't know if There's no way to spin him getting soundly beaten like that. Trump is gonna hold that spotlight I think if it really is true.

I don't think so Adam.

You might need to come up with a big lie.

Fine. :( I was way happier when I was mooching off the system.

Ugh. My job field is boring as all hell. I'm responsible for adherence and QA for a call center. Basically, I have to yell at grown adults who take too long to go potty. Then, I get to listen to their calls and point out each one of their flaws.

Basically, I'm a drag queen....

Hahaha ok Cheebo. Maybe if Hillary was leading you would perceive things in a different light?
SC is to Hillary as NH is to Sanders. Want to know how much interest I have in SC on the Democrat side? Zero. It's not a candidate thing.

Pretty much no one in the media or in liberal politics seems to give a shit what goes on in NH (and SC) on the Dem side. All the oxygen is being sucked up by the GOP race.

The Clintons are the masters of retail politics, they know everything is local and showing up to stuff matters. There was an example written about the other day, the Clintons were the only candidates who showed up to the largest gathering of african-americans in Iowa. It was some kind of festival or something, Hillary gave a short speech, shook some hands and Bill stayed for like a day and a half. Everyone else in the race skipped over it.

I do work nights. I'm still learning the systems, so I only work until 11:00pm EST. In a few weeks, I'll be the only QA/WFM person. Means I get to be here until 1:00am Sun-Thurs. However, I did get them to put me on hourly instead of salary, which means I get a shift differential.

I was trying to find previous instances of this poll, without success. I'd be interested to see if that Latino number has shifted or always been broken down like this

For some reason most of the polls I've seen don't break it down this far.

I watched it last night, it's really really damn good.

I didn't realize it started last night until it was too late. I'm a Hodgman fan, would watch just for him.

There was a fantastic piece on Jeb supporters in New Hampshire styled like one of those ultra depressing German documentaries. I laughed way too fucking hard at that.

Turnout is ultra down as all Bernie fans are busy going to the bank to pay their student loans

Edit: you can tell this is fake because they can't pay their student loans
 
Earlier, MSNBC was on a bus running from the University of New Hampshire. They were talking to one kid who was voting for Kasich. The girl..I can't remember who she said she was voting for. I think they found the 2 people in the state under 30 who are not voting for Bernie.

Sanders couldn't even win Iowa, how will he win Nevada? It's not the fact that Nevada is more non-white than Iowa, it's the fact that it's a closed caucus.

"Trump and Bernie both promise things that are impossible, but their supporters just don't care."

Gotta give it to Bernie fans even if they're fightig for a losing cause right about now.

Single-payer alone is worthy of the fight. The more I look and read and talk to poor folks with Obamacare, the more I realize how wrong it's to support a half measure that doesn't get us anywhere. Better than nothing I tell them.....but it ain't much.
 
Thats something that may skew his view, agree. But what he is saying is not wrong. I would like to see a counter argument though, if you have any.

What polls there have been have shown a huge gap in Clinton's favor. That article reads like wishful thinking.

If for some reason he poll numbers slump after today I suppose there's a chance, but I doubt that will happen.

That the demographics of the race haven't really changed, even evidenced in Iowa where Clinton won the non-white, and there's no clear indicator yet that they have changed?

His interpretation of whites is flawed. Iowa and NH have more white liberals and Iowa apparently has lots of people who describe themselves as socialists. This image might as well be posted the at the top every page. Look where Nevada falls.

Campaign Setback: Jeb Bush’s Bus Broke Down On A Train Track And A Train Is Approaching Fast

To make matters worse, Jeb’s competitors continue to shine. Ted Cruz earned a victory in the Iowa caucuses, while Donald Trump is leading polls in New Hampshire and is not currently stuck on train tracks with a 120-car freight train just 30 seconds away from smashing his bus into complete oblivion. In a campaign dominated by political outsiders and an upending of conventional thinking, Jeb Bush’s $150 million in fundraising has done little to sway public opinion or get his stalled bus out of the way of 180,000 pounds of crushing force created by a AC4400CW locomotive.

Hardly presidential!

Independents on CNN being interviewed who were gonna vote for Sanders are switching to the Republican primary to vote for Kasich. Can't find video on website though.
