GOP be like "we should have had him give an anti-Rubio speech."
Because people are jerks or worse. I've lost respect for many a friend this year.

If Bernie's people want to start calling Ohio part of the confederacy that isn't going to sit well here.
Stop trashing states that you lost, assholes.

That was so beautiful to read.
Is that hot on the heels of fuck the poor, working white that was dropped a while back? Whew. The lights in that office must be real dim.
Because Trump is "just kidding" about the negative women stuff. According to some of his supporters at least

And from PPP
Will Trump/Cruz take McCain down with them this Fall?
Supposedly there are a ton of new Hispanic voter registrations in Arizona.
I think Arizona will be a battleground in November.
I'm pretty sure given the people who run that organization that there will be hell to pay once more news gets out on what was previously and the 'apology'. I'm pretty sure not everyone in that group is a fervent Bernie supporter and even if they were they would not want that language attached to anything they use. I mean one of the main supporters of that group is Maxine Waters who was one of the first people to endorse Hilary Clinton.

McCain: 41
Kirkpatrick: 40
McCain leads by only one point and that's before he has to defend Trump calling Hillary a cunt.

I think this might be the worst year of Lindsey Graham's life if he can't convince Hillary that ground troops are needed to bring Democracy to Russia.

Man, the Democratic Party is going to look rock solid compared to the clownbusfire that is GOP in november. You will have the leader of the party, Presidente Obama calling for unification, the Big Dog flank his left and Bernie flank his right. Then you have the entire party leadership from DWS down to local party chair riding the Hillary/Perez 2016 ticket.

OMG. Yes. Please. Take him down. He deserves more punishment for Palin...and a lot of other shit. I want a blue wave in November, with Queen riding the glorious charge. Yaaasss
I read this with a smile on my face.
HOLY FUCKING SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!!!
I would have never possibly imagined that Iowa and Arizona could be contested Senate races (albeit HIGLY unlikely that they flip). Just to indulge a little, what would the Senate makeup be if the Dems sweep all of the races that are deemed toss up plus AZ and IA? Would it be 55-45?
"Riding the Blue Wave" is sexist since most feminine hygiene commercials use blue liquid to advertise their absorptiveness.

Best case scenario (unless shit really goes down) would be 57-43
Hold everything (NV, CO)
WI
IL
NH
PA
FL
OH
NC
MO
AZ
IN
IA
Those are all the races that are likely to be at least somewhat competitive.
Dems do have candidates in KY, AR and GA but they're not huge opportunities.

Obama being pretty candid in private to his donor base. What's the youngest a President has been post-tenure? He's going to continue to have a lot of clout for like 30 years.

MO, NC, IN, IA, and AZ aren't toss-ups but they're 'winnable'. If Dems win those plus actual toss-ups/lean Ds like OH, FL, NV, CO, WI, IL, and NH that's 57 seats.

I think Boozman maybe falls before Grassley.

At some point late in the race the messaging on the senate races is probably going to become 'don't give Hillary a Democratic Senate!'

Illinois, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Ohio, New Hampshire, Florida, Iowa, Arizona. That's +8. They'd have 54.

to be fair so does Reagan 30 years+ on, and he isn't even alive anymore. Best living post presidential tenure is Carter easily.

You might be right. Grassley losing is still pretty improbable so if it's happening the blue wave is going to be steep.
The convention will be great. I'm sure Hillary will give the best speech she's ever given in her life. Obama's going to put Hillary's name into nomination. Bill's going to light the fireworks for us for the first night as presidential spouse.
After the clown show that will be the previous week we need some cleansing.

Either the speech when she conceded in 2008 or her convention speech in 2008.

So my mom keeps on freaking out about Trump because of the people switching from Dem to Republican before the primary.
She's legit terrified that Trump is going to win the general election even though I've tried to explain to her multiple times the general election layout, minority vote, the GOP intentionally trying to deny him the primary, the down ticket seats being told to distance themselves...
Yea, she's thinks I'm wrong and that I'm "treating her like an idiot", anyone have other sources or articles/numbers to show her so I don't have to listen to her freak out every time we listen to the nightly news during dinner, I'm not going to be able to stay sane listening to the same freakout for the next six months.

"I'm not Donald Trump! See you all in November!"
Every single bit of GE polling?
My girlfriend is equally terrified of the guy.
Dude has a lot of people who otherwise don't care two licks about politics absolutely shook. More incentive to drive people to the polls I'd say.

It's a legit real thing that people are anxious about. She's right to be anxious because there's a very real possibility of it. If I was you, I'd try to help her distract herself from the election as much as possible. Avoid the news media.
Yes. Everything is relative obviously but in their time they argued for ratification of the Constitution and the creation of a stronger national government when they officially became a party following ratification.

Probably my favorite line Hillary has ever delivered in a speech:
Although we weren't able to shatter that highest, hardest glass ceiling this time, thanks to you, it's got about 18 million cracks in it, and the light is shining through like never before, filling us all with the hope and the sure knowledge that the path will be a little easier next time.
