Doubt it. Turnout is a lot lower than 2008
lol omg.
That gay man needs to realize what his party stands for
I'm sure he'll manage to get the ball into the final region and win!
First, you overturn the Supreme Court's unconstitutional mandate of gay marriage. If gay people can't get married, then they can't be discriminated against by a baker who won't bake them a wedding cake. Or a florist who won't arrange flowers for their wedding. Or a resort owner who won't host the wedding. Repealing gay marriage solves all of that discrimination and it protects the religious liberty of Americans.

Rarely do I go out of my way to diss someone, but...
Did this Canadian wanker seriously just weasel out of a question of a queer republican willing to make an informed decision for their vote by making his question about orthodox Jews being able to sell the deli meats of their choice?
Jesus, that was embarrassing. I can't stand Cruz.
I am honestly surprised he hasnt appeared once this cycleto shit on Bernie for saying raising taxes was a requirement to fund his health care and college programs.

Speaking of Salon dot com
Are there sites that you guys have sworn off during this elextion because of how slanted everything is? I was just trying to think of news sources I trust and I couldnt really think of many...
I ended up graduating from college with a degree in economics so I have a pretty firm ground to understand the shifting world as well as the capability to digest new information but most people dont have that in any way shape or form!
Even regular old business students who had to take a few classes in econ are still what I would consider illiterate. Economics is pretty far down in things to learn about for most people.
Not only that but a lot of economics has been tied to political leans so most people are pretty damn dug into their way of thinking. Good luck convincing people that they know nothing.
Basically, what Im trying to say is that millenials are no different than the generations before them when it comes to understanding economics because theyre poorly educated and entrenched on the subject.
That being said, I think the study of economics has greatly improved in the last few decades. I think that just comes from the greater ability to pool and breakdown data.

I wouldnt know about other states or how it may be now but when I was in high school micro and macro were crammed into their own semesters and so much of it was just focused on cramming info that fit AP testing that rarely did it feel like we were being taught how any of it connected to world we lived in.

Political pundits have become like Ron Paul stans to cheer on Cruz winning over Trump even as Cruz repeatedly demonstrates that he's the worst person in the world. These ideas of how Cruz will win are fever swamp dreams that only desperate internet forum people appeal to and that's what Silver has been reduced to.
EV is never coming back after he got laughed off the board for being an insane person.

Donald Trump.
Seriously I don't think many people would have agreed to do this. Fiorina was probably the best he could get. This move is the definition of pissing yourself to keep warm.

Very few make a lick of sense or have consistency.
Well....I don't think it would be seen by trump as desperation when he's winning.

Kos put his foot down weeks ago saying there would be none of this vote 3rd party or for Trump bullshit. Gained some respect points from me this election. So if you want a sane left slant, that's still an option.
Edit: Huffington Post badly needs some editors. Allowing any and all posts just for clicks is bad.

Silver is just pissed that all his predictions were off and has to place the blame somewhere. Speaking of silver and predictions, anyone seen kharvey? Lol

This whole "blame the media" thing is just so sad. Is it that hard to admit you were wrong, Nate? The media reports on Trump and Cruz differently because context matters. This is clearly an act of desperation. Show me where Trump has done the same.

Kharvey and PD should be unbanned for 24 hours so they can come eat crow.

lol,
In actuality, anyone that might revive his chances, would want nothing to do with his campaign.
Can someone explain to me how Clinton won the South Dakota primary in 2008, on the last primary day of the season when it was clear that Obama would be the nominee? Or at least know of an article that talks about it? I have no idea how she pulled that out of her ass, or if she could even do it again.
Sadly what that person said won't happen especially if donald actually tries to make clinton look like monica lewinsky in a debate. It will just turn off more women and these women would be more likely to support clinton.
Closed primary. White people.
GAF should have like a reverse purge once a year were everyone is unbanned for 24 hours.
Reminds me of a great Twilight Zone episode where a traveling shyster resurrects a town's cemetery (filled with criminals and ne'er-do-wells), much to the horror of the local sheriff and the residents.

I just found the fatal flaw in Cruz's VP choice, Fiorina's husband smiled and shook hands with Hillary and then took a selfie with her once:

This is nearly as bad as the Christie hug.

And here I was thinking it was a flawless move.

What does the Democratic party do about anti-Globalism? How do you sell selling your jobs for corporate margins?

Explain the benefits and mitigate the bad effects. Honestly, they have done a pretty bad job at both. Doing the second is going to require controlling the house.

I hypothetically live in the Midwest. Explain to me the benefits and mitigate my region hemorrhaging jobs as it struggles to reinvent itself.
Just so everyone knows, I live in California. The sweet nectar of free trade has been good to our coffers. I couldn't care less about the great plains and wouldn't mind if California seceded because unlike the Had-It-Up-To-Here crowd and Sean Hannity, Manifest Destiny does not give me a pants-shredding erection.

Cruz finally found another sociopath to relate to?
They bonded over their acid induced vision of Planned Parenthood?
Fiorina is the only person in the world that can stand Cruz?
Cruz is not smart and only thinks that "on paper" Fiorina is appealing due to being a super conservative Republican (in her current form) but also bringing in the women vote and Fiorina has roots in California?
Fiorina was the only person politically desperate enough to do this?
