Guess so.
I meant what would he have to win remaining delegates percentage wise. 60% or something along those lines..
Why do this if he gets wrecked?

Wouldn't that be .VC? For Vatican City?It was a domain name joke.va -> Vatican
I'm fairly confident about Hillary's chances. The FBI situation is the only wildcard but there is nothing that anyone can do about it until their recommendation drops. Electorally, Clinton basically locked up the nomination on the 15th. A huge win in NY followed by another sweep on the 26th would just be so damn satisfying.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
Come on, guys.
They aren't picking Kasich. If Trump doesn't get first ballot, it's Cruz all the way.

Jerod was always better anyway
I am confident about 4 out of 5 on the 26th with RI being the toss up. We need new RI numbers.

Brah, I'm not smart enough to remember things like domains and shit.
And I will relax when she has 2383 delegates. Until then, I'm phone banking and doing what I can. I will not have this ripped away from me this time. I've waited 8 long freaking years. I want her to feast on his souuuuuuul.
But are you facebanking?

It seems like it should be VC to me.
I want to be fair and say that Tad Devine has been pretty consistent with his point about superdelegates endorsements being detrimental to democracy during the campaign.
Tad Devine wrote an Op-ed in 2008 saying that super delegates shouldn't be part of the campaign. Media shouldn't be counting them until the convention. And they shouldn't try to influence the campaign by announcing their pledge before the convention because it diminishes the power of the voters.
His point was that Obama and Clinton shouldn't be fighting for super delegates DURING the campaign but for the normal voters.
So in that point he is been kind of consistent.
Where he changed is that in that same Op-ed he argued that super delegates only role is to pledge to the candidate who won the most pledged delegates.
"After listening to the voters, the superdelegates can do what the Democratic Partys rules originally envisioned. They can ratify the results of the primaries and caucuses in all 50 states"

Checkmate Establishment.
Yawp. I have stopped engaging all the Bernie supporters on FB. Those that are still posting talk about independent runs or post dank Hillary memes
am I doing that right?
Meanwhile, the rest of us like my mother, extended family, and myself keep our heads down and fill in the circles. My brother was harassing my mom about who she voted for on election day. I stopped by her house on the 6th and asked who she had selected. She gave me a glance a wink and a fist bump, and that was that.
Winning the white vote by 13% would be a much bigger win than 16%.

The reason is because she's losing men by 3 points and the under age 45 group by 11.
She happens to be winning women however, by 31. Which is about how she performed in the results in 2008.

Also, in the Pennsylvania poll:
It's a closed primary. You had until March 26th to register or switch parties, If you look at the cross tabs, Hillary's ahead 55/35 among people registered as Dems. I'm not sure how this figures into shit, but I can't figure out why they broke it down the way they did. All I can think, these are independents who when pushed said they switched their registration?

Yes, but there's also a lot of red tape around that too.

Self-ID independents. They're registered as Democrats but don't identify as such.
It's 57-36 in NY if you go by that metric.

That seems weird. I don't doubt you at all, just seems weird to me. You're registered as something....so you're that thing.
That whole Penn poll just seems off. She leads women by 21, whites by 6, AA voters by 47, she's down 3 with men...but only ahead by 11? Just seems weird.

When men account for 42% of the vote, losing them counts for a lot.

I'm starting to think the Donald is going to win New York by triple digits. Ted Cruz keeps doubling down on New York values.
I don't like you smearing the Dark Lord like that.
I have....um...feelings for Voldemort. (Not even lying about that, btw). I had a crush on the Dark Lord when I was younger. IDK. I need help.
Elijah Cummings Endorsed Hillary today.

But, no, he hadn't officially endorsed, but this should surprise no one.
Cummings just nutted one delegate

I can kind of understand the appeal. Guy has shitty how life and is bullied and becomes all powerful in reaction to it. But.... evil.
I wouldn't think about it too much. It's a poll and the primary is in over 2 weeks. Take it for what it is and move on.

Getting caught up on the Daily Show, I just went from loving it to hating it in the space of 2 episodes. Lindsey Graham was HILARIOUS, but now they're doing this bit on the debate dates and it's just ugh :/
It's not what it used to be. Trevor Noah is alright but he's never going to live up to Jon Stewart.

So I was reading this thread for the first time today and I looked at the clock and it said 12:37.
That can't be a coincidence.
